Thisapproach and the associated stigma related to disability labels has been linked to an increasedprevalence of mental health challenges including anxiety, depression, and burnout within thispopulation [10-13]. We suggest that to address this, the focus of engineering education must shiftfrom individual to collaborative problem-solving, creating a safe space for students of diversecognitive abilities to collaborate and bring their unique skills to the table that concurrentlyenhancing students’ sense of belonging and inclusion.

in an engineering context has been described as the abilityto perform a task, question and reflect upon it while grounding their reflection in reality. It isimportant to note the critical thinking as a dynamic concept in engineering that requires studentsto navigate between empirical and abstract knowledge (Ahern, et al., 2012).Collaboration is often closely linked with critical thinking. This is not surprising given the team-based nature of most engineering professions and the inclusion of communication and teamworkas an explicit goal in the accreditation of engineering programs (Woods, et al., 2000).Furthermore, Mills and Treagust (2003) posit that traditional “chalk and talk” pedagogies remainprevalent in engineering education despite the

Yet active learning has a significant psychologicalbarrier to wider adoption. The transition from a controlled, scripted, and familiar classroomexperience (i.e. the traditional lecture) to an unscripted, collaborative in-class learningexperience is often difficult for instructors and students alike1. Active learning’s practiceliterature and scholarship of teaching sometimes provide ideas about how to manage anunscripted class.

Instead ofreferring to disciplinary categories, it relies on a broader notion of “humanistic engineering”analogous to the emerging notions of “humanistic entrepreneurship” and “humanisticmanagement” (Teehankee, 2008; Rocha and Miles, 2009). In brief, humanistic engineering treatsfinancial, social, and environmental sustainability as goals to be achieved simultaneously.Humanistic engineering education recognizes that engineering students are first and foremosthuman beings who must learn not only to calculate and design, but also to collaborate for mutualbenefit and seek meaning
