. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2025 Change | Makers: What can come next in engineering design?IntroductionThere have been growing calls for engineers and engineering educators to take more completeresponsibility for their role in society as technological developers and technically literatemembers of society, the exclusivity of their practice, and the impact their work has on the worldboth socially and environmentally. These calls appear in various forms including SustainableDevelopment Goals (SDGs) [1], calls to action [2], and academic literature [3-5]. However,change in engineering often comes slowly. While some change has been seen, for example, insome engineering codes of ethics and graduate attributes, others have been

The only marking on thebatteries was the brand. Using the brand and the terminal type we found that the battery atmaximum was a 15 AH which can be used, but may last less than a hour. There were notechnical manuals available for this battery. This year we went to purchase a battery that would meet out design requirements.

Inthis work, non-technical professional skills (i.e., communication, leadership, teamwork) will bereferred to as professional skills.

Here we describe a set of curricular modulesto enhance students’ understanding of standards in engineering practice that reflect learning at alllevels of Bloom’s Taxonomy (i.e. recognition/understanding, application, revision, and creation).The modules and their implementation will enhance students’ understanding of standards,including 1) searching and identifying appropriate standards, 2) writing appropriate protocols forthe verification of standards, 3) proposing revisions to standards, and 4) developing newstandards. With this methodology applied to different engineering/technical disciplines, we hopeto establish a distinct value
