Engineering education has been a leader in this call by encouraging students toparticipate in learning environments that create valuable knowledge, address real-worldproblems while upholding professional engineering ethics (Smith, Sheppard, Johnson, &Johnson, 2005). As such, there have been voluntary initiatives and programs such as engineeringand sustainable development, community service, service-learning, and/or humanitarianengineering in the US (Schneider, Lucena, and Leydens, 2009). These learning models ofteninclude engineering organizations that dedicate their efforts to international community problems(e.g., Engineers Without Borders USA, Engineers for a

I note that, besides one instance where myclass assisted an organization that provides meals and childcare to underprivileged people, myfour years of undergraduate engineering education failed to train me on how to use what we aretaught in the classroom to serve society. I view Brooke’s effect on me, along with my own internal reflections, as evidence of myuse of external and internal feedback mechanisms to employ “true-to-self” strategies in thedevelopment of my “provisional self.” Perhaps in a “true-to-self” manner, I chose to prioritizemy academics – succeed in my classes and complete my

But if I get to find that on my own, then it becomes a really, reallychallenging problem." This suggests that problems designed for educational contexts should beadaptable to different levels of student proficiency while maintaining the core engineeringconcepts [50].Professional Perspective VariationsWhile quantitative
