perspective of past technologies and how they were discovered and used. In thiscontext the two biggest technology drivers of agriculture and war are studied in detail.Throughout the course, numerous technologies are scrutinized and examined in terms of theircost versus benefit to society. The main objectives of the course were to: (a) promote awarenessof technological development, and (b) provide a rudimentary understanding of the social,political, economic, and cultural impact.The course content explores innovations and inventions associated with ancient as well as retrotechnologies in the fields of agriculture, weapons, time measurement, industrialization,transportation, communication, and the environment (Loendorf & Geyer14, 2009

This decision was made partially to respond to demand from students in otherschools who wanted to take DTC, and partially to spread the design experience across theuniversity. DTD is not unique, as Virginia Tech launched a similar course in CitizenEngineering.19BIBLIOGRAPHY 1.

Engineering judgment cannot be taught directly, since its application requires the contextof the unforeseen, the in-process, contingent, and indeterminate.
