How have federal government definitions that guide evidence basedresearch reproduced certain values and assumptions in our community as we apply standards ofrigor in engineering education research?The paper then takes up the pedagogical implications of the evidence based model in whichinterventions are the sole purview of teachers, with presumed power to cause students to learn“better.” The contradictions of using this approach despite “learner centered” rhetoric lead us toa closer examination of enacted and intended pedagogies in engineering education.
