Thefollowing sections cover the motivation behind the development of these exercises, the specificsof the exercises, student perceptions, and concluding remarks.1 Motivation and BackgroundEnabling future engineers to think critically is one of the most challenging aspects of engineeringeducation. Most engineering students are strategic learners (Woods, Hrymak, and Wright, 2000),meaning that they will think deeply about a problem only if they are forced to.

One possible design is a 3D simulatedmodel of a patient's body, specifically for oncology related cases, that tracks previous patientsand where their cancer spread. This would give doctors a heads-up on where to monitor currentpatients and they would know which areas were high-risk. The software would look similar tothe image below. The red areas would represent "high-risk" and the blue areas would represent"low-risk" areas. The other colors would be ranked on a scale.
