One of the most laudable characteristics of teachers is theirreadiness to affirm and encourage learners. Such affirmation is crucial to strengthening astudent’s sense of self-regard. Take to extreme, however, affirming students can lead, attimes, to an educational cul-de-sac, in which students feel good about themselves but arenever prompted to explore alternative perspectives, to venture into new skill areas, or toscrutinize critically those habitual assumptions underlying their thoughts and actions.Students are sometimes so enclosed

BackgroundTraditionally engineering education is the delivery of knowledge through the classroomexperience. As time has progressed and the field has developed, engineering educational systemshave moved towards delivering more and more information to our students in this “banking”model (depositing information without question or critique) at the expense of the development ofthe cognitive capacity for applying this knowledge to make judgments. Because engineers arecontinuously called upon to make judgments related to problems in complex systems, it iscritical that we engage students in “self-authorship”: the development of an internal voice thatprovides students with the capacity to define their beliefs, identities and social relationships,guided by their own
