, resulting in a high degree of emotional engagement by the user, suchas patients in medical environments or victims in disaster areas. The variety and complexity ofdesign considerations to be considered are high. In the following, we will focus on“compassionate design thinking”, i.e., on the role and impact of compassion during the designprocess. This paper presents a baseline approach for establishing a framework for compassionatedesign. The ultimate goal is to provide context-specific guidelines that can be used withouthaving direct access to the end-user.1 IntroductionThere are several tools helping engineering designers to gather and organize custom information,including Quality Function Deployment,1 design ethnography,2 focus groups3, 4 and

A noticeabledecline in the number of domestic graduate students pursuing engineering has occurred and just underhalf of those who are pursuing the doctorate are foreign nationals. But the drop in Americans engaging ingraduate studies in engineering is also being perceived by industry and by a growing proportion ofgraduate schools as a reflection of a lack of opportunity for lifelong learning and of an insufficiency ofU.S. graduate education to serve the full professional spectrum of engineering. This deficiency isaffecting U.S. competitiveness and the nation’s long-term capacity for innovation.

the hope of drawing more students to study engineering and ultimatelyincrease diversity in the discipline. Teaching the students innovation, critical thinking, anddecision-making skills through an engineering design curriculum would also increase thecourse’s relevance in the student’s perspective. The engineering design curriculum would alsonaturally provide the students with more opportunities for hands-on, interactive, and fun courseexercises beyond what the heritage course offered. Some of these engaging course exerciseswould allow students to test their newly acquired innovation knowledge and skills by designing,building, and testing physical prototypes, which was not part of the heritage course.

Although the full-wave bridge rectifiercircuit is often used in Electronics classes as an illustration of using diodes for power conversionapplications (either half-wave or full-wave), the treatment of the subject in Electronics tends tobe restricted to time-domain analysis. Combining the key concepts from Signals and Systems forthe rectifier application inside the AC-to-DC conversion circuit allows students to understand ata deeper level by integrating the concepts in Signals and Systems about signal periodicity, linearand non-linear transformation, and signal energy

observing engineers at work. The methodwas for a student observer to spend all (or as much as possible) of the working day with anengineer, recording all the activities that the engineer engaged in. The research method is linked to the preliminary stage of this research. For example inrecording all of the engineer’s activities, no categories were used. It was felt that developingcategories first could bias the data by causing the observer to fit the observations intopredetermined slots. In later stages we expect to develop categories so that consistency acrossobservers will be easier to maintain. The observation period chosen was one week. Observations were taken at the engineer’soffice, so that work-site time and work at home during the
