Indeed, the public’s awareness mustnow be considered when designing new products so profits will not suffer due to the negativeperception of irresponsible manufacturing and implementation 1, 2. This worldwide movementtowards total product awareness must be supported by a shift in how traditional engineeringtopics are taught, idealized, and approached both within engineering departments and the pre-college (high school, middle school) arena. Without changes to the educational system there ispotential for accelerated global environmental impact (i.e. global warming), irresponsibleglobalization (i.e. exploitation of vulnerable populations), and a shortage of informed productdevelopers among members

The later issue is a major problem since it is oftena difficult task to “educate” a student on all that STEM (or, in this case, chemical engineering) hasto offer after they have made the decision to switch majors.In the Fall of 2004, the Chemical Engineering Department at Tennessee Technological Universityhad eight of 30 chemical engineering freshman students drop out of chemical engineering. Whilethis percentage may or may not be alarming, subsequent “exit” interviews with one of us revealedthat several of the students were leaving for reasons that can only be described as “ill-informed”.Comments ranged

world.ePortfolios have become more prevalent in higher education as a tool to encourage studentreflection across all aspects of their lives [16]–[18]. A campus-level platform allows universitiesto support and integrate reflection at different levels: individual course assignments, curriculum-wide reflection, and inclusion of other university experiences, such as athletics, career services,and student organizations. This multilevel integration is crucial for achieving the full benefits ofreflection in education [19]. The use of digital platforms may enable new kinds of reflectivethinking [20] as students creatively curate different media types, including text, images, video,concept maps, and social media.

Further, some researchers have expressed concernsover the westernization of education [14]. Guttman [28] adds that the nation-building role ofhigher education can be undermined by “a mismatch between offshore curricula and local hopesof building national cohesion, maintaining cultural identity and addressing local resource needs”.This local relevance of curricula is further discussed as a barrier in the next section.(5) Curricular Relevance– The success of global online education relies on being able to develop“curriculum that is relevant to learners wherever they happen to
