This need forsociotechnical fluency among technical educators is exacerbated when we expand the definitionof an instructor from the faculty member—who intellectually leads the course design—to includeteaching assistants (TAs), who design their own smaller classroom spaces for close interactionwith individual students.Given the breadth of the term “sociotechnical,” we delineate the term into internal and externalsociotechnical systems. External sociotechnical systems refer to human stakes within the largerengineering sphere, spanning industry and research, which are commonly included in discoursesurrounding engineering ethics [3].
