possible actions, then chooses to act in a particular way.Their choice determines what they pay attention to following the action. To make sense of theresults of their action, at least the ones they paid attention to, they develop mental representationsor perspectives of the result of the action. There are many possible perspectives that can bedeveloped based on the actor’s attention and interests. Regardless of how they interpret theresults of their own actions, they leave the field of action with new knowledge which informsfuture intentions, thus starting the cycle again. Thus in Macmurray’s system one’s interactionwith, or coupling to, the world is defined iteratively through action that is reflectively informedby knowledge gained through one’s

].Aesthetics in engineering, utilizing objects from nature, is being stressed by modern industrial designers,whether in building architecture or in the design of a shopping mall. Industrial design is in the domain ofvisual education applicable in fine arts and performing arts. The pioneering works of Leonardo da Vinciare some the earlier examples in the Hellenistic-Judeo-Christian cultures that convey the importance ofaesthetic aspects in mechanical design [4]. His extensive note books and sketch pads on all mechanicalmodels, ranging from water pumps to helicopters, put aesthetics on a solid foundation in the domain ofdesign, and reflect the union between beauty and technology, harmony and synthesis, art and artisan’swork in a creative endeavor.Over

accepted convention does not reflect the reality of theengineering and technology disciplines as truly exist.A better description of who’s who in engineering and technology is suggested as follows: Engineering Scientists: Academic or research engineers almost invariably holding a doctoral degree. Engineers: Private practice licensed professional engineers, or employed engineers holding bachelors or masters degrees. Engineering Designers: Technologists holding associate or bachelor degrees in engineering technology. Engineering Technicians: Equipment specialists holding manufacturer certificates or

idea of reflective practice was not then part of the dialogue.Of equal interest is the fact that by and large the students preferred Social Studies as theirfirst choice. It was followed closely by Management Studies with special reference to humanrelations in industry. Whether or not these studies belong to what traditionalists call liberalknowledge is a moot point. But they certainly broadened their studies. Moreover,industrialists tended to support this approach to liberal studies and in both the US and UKhave continually complained to this day that graduates are inadequately prepared for industry.Korte has shown that graduates themselves wish they had been better prepared for their initialexperience of industry [26].Back in 1963 Andrews and

eagerness to program the robots. Besidesbeing exposed to advanced mathematical material, the teachers were able to use this to bridge intoother academic areas. To help their students learn to identify angles, teachers used sentence wordgaps (shown in Figure 2), a technique commonly used in teaching language arts.Figure 2: A first-grade teacher at an elementary school, using the sentence word gaps to teach earlyelementary students the angles they need to program the direction of the robots.BOTS consisted of a series of progressive PD sessions held for three hours on a Saturday morningalmost monthly throughout the academic year. Each session built upon the previous and gave theteachers the opportunity to reflect and receive feedback on their
