. Further, as found by Vincenti, they describe the messiness of theseoften uncertain and distinctive work environments. Their methodology was to observe engineersat work in three firms, ask them a few questions about their work at the end of theseobservations, and gather artifacts from their work processes. They then went through and codedthese observations according to the type of knowledge employed. These types of knowledgeincluded technical, social, visual (which is largely understanding constraints and determininghow to present information), and financial.

An engineer’s preference for structure (i.e., his/her cognitive style) willaffect his/her comfort level in solving a particular problem, in addition to the way he/shecommunicates the details of that problem. Since concept mapping can be used to graphicallycommunicate an individual’s understanding of a problem, knowing whether (and how) aperson’s cognitive style affects the way a problem is mapped will be useful information.To test our premise, we designed and performed a detailed experiment to

Students may get the right answers on quiz questions, but may not be sure oftheir answers and may get similar questions wrong. Confidence in one’s answer or design is nottypically important during undergraduate schooling, but is vital in a job and in graduateeducation where the confidence students have in their solutions is nearly as important as thesolutions themselves.

These student shifts in understanding based on context also beg thequestion of what contexts are important for preparation for the engineering workplace. There isnot time or resources to cover all contexts, so work must be done to align learning andengineering design contexts.Future research is needed to determine the importance of these and other contexts and theirrelation to students’ understandings.

) theresponsibility to communicate complex technical information to non-technical audiences in away that they can understand, and not to use the technical language to their advantage. Anexample of the later is a response given by Corvin: “In terms of interactions, a lot of people become engineers because they like the math and science, and they may not be necessarily the best writers or the best communicators. You still have to understand that as an engineer you’re going to have to communicate what you’re doing with other people who are non-engineers. It’s not practical to throw a bunch of extremely technical designs and words at people who don’t understand them.”Impact. Many described a need to have an awareness of the “impact

This result mirrors our previous findings from the case study at theMidwest institution where Ezekiel and his team focused on their engineering project rather thanfostering social interaction. Finally, late-stage expansion in the social network may result fromstudents seeking additional support and assistance to finalize their semester-long design project.Interviews with students from both institutions corroborate this interpretation of the socialnetworks describes above.To better understand the relationship between the social structure and
