their students’ empathic abilities, we conclude this paper by brieflyconsidering other important parameters for developing empathy among engineering students,including (i) empathic biases, (ii) experience, (iii) internalization, (iv) emotional regulation, and(v) potential unintended outcomes of empathy training.(i) First, empathy often does not manifest in every interaction one has with another, as humanstend to be biased. Specifically, we are biased by our familiarity with others who are more likeourselves (e.g., kin, close friends).39 However, if individuals can identify similarities betweenthemselves and another, their empathy for that other is likely to be primed, and their affinity

Each of us brought different skill sets, differentexperiences, and different interests from different jobs in different locations. Yet, throughout ourfirst year we simultaneously observed common stumbling blocks leading to some dilemmas andcuriosities. This paper presents some of these common observations from three dissimilarinstructors within a contextual framework promoting a learning-centered

In this way, the learning occursnot only in social settings, but also with the artifacts and cultural tools created by more-knowing-others in educational or professional settings [9]. Through engagement in engineering design andanalysis students come to internalize the ways of talking, knowing, and being that constitutesengineering [10, 11]. In this way, the ongoing, concerted activities of engineering in educationalsettings provide numerous opportunities to learn the knowledge and practices of engineeringincluding addressing client needs, balancing criteria and
thefrustrating realities of an activity such as the STEP Program is the extreme difficulty inproviding concrete data to show your results and value in real numbers. Numbers of studentsand teachers exposed to science and technology through STEP conferences is a weak metricwhen attempting to show results. Due to the privacy laws prohibiting the collection of studentdata and information as they flow through the educational system or even identifying actualstudents who attended STEP conferences leaves STEP with using examples of students andteachers who voluntarily identified themselves (with parental permission for students) as beingactively assisted by STEP. We have industry engineering interns at local companies today whowere early STEP Conference
