A need exists for andappropriate range of course materials for general education engineering courses.On the issue of technological literacy, the potential role of existing introduction to engineeringclasses should not be overlooked. Due to their limited prerequisites introduction to engineeringcourses have the potential to be general education courses open to all students. In addition, thesecourses have the possibility of exposing engineering students to a broader range of technologicaldevices and issues than

This needs to be promoted at the highest levels (governors, legislatures, and state boards for state institutions; governing boards for private institutions) as mandates from above will be needed to change university core requirements. 2) The course should be a full three credit (quarter or semester) hour course. 3) The course should include laboratories as well as classroom time. The lab portion may require an additional credit hour. 4) While teaching engineering, the course should incorporate a broad view of technology as well. 5) Institutions should

What evidence isthere that kindness is congruent or incongruent with engineering education? What is the value ofconsidering kindness in comparison to the constructs of care, empathy, and compassion? Theperspectives of a variety of scholars are synthesized in this analysis. This is followed by concreteexamples of teaching and course practices that are emblematic of kindness, such ascompassionate pedagogy. The author argues that kindness is appropriate to embody withinengineering education, irrespective of externally obvious stressors like a global
