It is my belief that enabling engineers to reflect onthe knowledge they negotiate and on the process of negotiation itself, they will be able to helpstudents live the spirit of discovery. What students will learn within the University will then bemore akin to how to be an engineer, rather than how to pass exams.Certain educational researchers take the perspective that teachers need to help students think andreflect
