is a device that keeps newborn babies (especially premature and lowbirth-weight babies that require an incubator) warm and comfortable.26 The device was designedby a group of engineers to address the needs in places where incubators are unaffordable orcannot be maintained. Existing videos and talks about ‘Embrace’ show that the motivation forthis design solution was driven by compassion for the mothers who lose their babies because oflimited access to technology that provides the conditions for the baby’s survival. The engineerson this project did not only focus on solutions that work, but also considered various other factorsrelated to the context, such as lack of or unreliable electricity, affordability, and portability.Portability was an

Pierrakos et. al 3 , in their work onreimagining ethics in engineering curricula, acknowledge this culture of disengagement andpiecemeal treatment of ethical roles 4 5 as a driving reason requiring re-engagement. These studiesinspired our work.In this paper, we describe our pan-engineering efforts working with faculty, alumni andundergraduate students from many engineering disciplines to help determine if our understandingof the need to integrate better ethics engagement is echoed by other faculty and students.

The instructor plans on using this structure again with a few modifications such asremoving the project (since the end of the semester is too stressful for this group of students),adding a practice A3 report, and creating a less stringent rubric for the spreadsheet assignments.Since having a five-year-old help grade the reports caused the students to take the audience moreseriously, something similar may be used in the future, possibly asking an industry representativeto give input on one

However, the graph also showsthat there are significant issues in achieving more effective learning with the topics of bonding,crystal structures, and electrical properties. Improved approaches are being tested to addressissues in these areas. The results demonstrate the potential to use feedback from instruction forareas that are in need of the most attention.Measuring Student Attitude with Support of Student Learning SurveyAn additional outcome not originally planned in CLIC was a summative survey administered atthe end of class to determine students' attitudes toward course instructional strategies
