For example, it is argued that successfultechnical innovations introduced by engineers require social development including improvedgovernance systems, training in entrepreneurship, access to credit and a supporting policyenvironment to facilitate adoption, diffusion and sustainability10. In a recent study by Richter andParetti, the authors analyzed papers presented at the 2007 American Society for EngineeringEducation conference and found 86 papers considered interdisciplinary issues12. The authorsconclude that the complexity of contemporary engineering projects require skills that go beyondthose of a single discipline and require that engineers develop expertise in interdisciplinary work.Furthermore, in a study conducted by the authors

innovations. Similarly the 1970’s and 80’s produced abody of research focused on teacher’s concerns and viewpoints, which has had a similarly lowimmediate impact on educational practice. The article suggests that the educational research lacks thesocio-political ‘authority’ to bring about systematic reform. Regardless of the reason it is clear thatresearch in the field of education has not produced a history of usefulness for educators.Our particular situation is complicated further in that we have a long time scale, one semester per year,and low numbers, 12-30 students per year. This has made it difficult to conduct true rigorous controlledexperiments. Additionally our assessments have been performed on extra-credit assignments where

Notreally, these types of techniques have been used for many years at the United States MilitaryAcademy and probably at most schools at the turn of the century. Hands-on models were oncethe corner stone of every class in mechanics, but many classrooms today are only equipped witha textbook, a chalkboard (if lucky), and a computer projection system. Is this enough? No! Howcan faculty return to a style in today’s classrooms that is more conducive to student-centeredlearning? This paper will present the daily classroom activities in a basic Mechanics course (andother courses as well) that greatly improve the quality of the instruction and student

The writing assignment presented in this paperand discussed in our interview explores how to teach critical thinking in engineering judgment throughthe student writing process. Though impossible to fully replicate the contexts of the professionalengineering environment, this assignment serves as an example of how to enable critical thinking througha semester-long research project. As technological innovation accelerates, the need for engineers to thinkcritically about engineering problem construction and framing, power relations, and other socialdimensions shaping
