. Page 24.375.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2014 Designing a Stage of “Romance” for Programs in Technological Literacy.AbstractIn previous paper in these proceedings* it was argued (a) that a liberal education that takes no account ofengineering and technological literacy cannot be by definition liberal, and (b) that programs of engineering andtechnological literacy can be designed to bridge the academic-vocational divide inherent in reports such as thatundertaken for the National Governors Association. In support of this argument a model curriculum based on theepistemologies of Macmurray and Newman was presented. It was necessarily integrated and trans-disciplinary, andit was argued that it

But recentlythey decided to call it quit and stopped the program because not enough students are committedto it. They were running it like a student club. The students were not obligated to devote moretime to the team because they were not getting academic credits. We‟d argue that a two semestersenior capstone design course is the best way to hold the core of a team together. With this coreteam in place, other underclassmen would be able to join in.
