In the case of B737 Maxdisasters there will be millions who through no fault of their own will have to fly on B 737Max aircraft, and some will be afraid. Since the primary purpose of an inquiry, unlessotherwise stated, is to make recommendations that ensure that such accidents do not occuragain, there is an obligation on society to ensure that its citizens are in a position to verify theveracity of what is recommended. Here, that skill is called “technological competence” thesuccessful exercise of which is to be technologically literate. In this sense

, we briefly review how design methodologies can be categorized by three dis-tinct conceptions of logic. In so doing we also intend to portray some of the common narratives onrationality of engineering and design.2.1 Classical logicThe first category of design methodologies are those committed to three axioms of classical logic,namely, a. the law of identity which states everything is identical to itself, b. the law of contradiction (or non-contradiction) which states that contra- dictions are not acceptable, c. and the law of excluded middle which states if a proposition is not true its negation must be true.In the following we first review two major developments in this domain

differentapproaches to algorithmic evaluation display trends comparable to by-hand assessment by aninstructor. Given that the software used in this work utilized unmodified versions of the basicalgorithms, it might be expected that agreement will improve as the algorithms are modified tobetter detect features most prevalent in diagrams of technological systems. Additional testing isplanned with both engineering students enrolled in an introduction to engineering and non-engineers in a general education engineering literacy course.References: 1. B.
