within thecurriculum.Philosophy and the Engineering LaboratoryPlato’s account of learning as recollection may seem unusual on first hearing; however, it will beargued that recollection provides a model for the process of learning that should take place in thelaboratory. The theory of recollection holds that learning is not the process of knowledge comingfrom the outside into the mind, but rather the recovering of something an individual has alwayspossessed but which was previously unrecognized. The review of recollection that follows islargely based on Jones’s dissertation [12]. Plato explores recollection in three dialogs – theMeno, the Phaedo, and the Phaedrus. The Meno introduces this idea of recollection throughsomething like an experiment

an electrical fluid (current).” This seems like the statement in Sabbagh that the realexistence of electrical properties is not essential for engineering knowledge. Nilsson 2015 [12, p.11] includes almost the same sentence: “In circuit theory, the separation of charge creates anelectrical force (voltage) and the motion of charge creates an electrical fluid (current).” Perhapsthis change was for brevity or clarity, but it is epistemically significant. When discussing idealresistors Nilsson 1983 begins by saying “One must keep in mind several important properties ofthe ideal resistor” and follows by describing three assumptions. Nilsson 2015 omits much of thisdiscussion, presenting only one assumption and ends by saying “In this book we assume

professional scrutiny and critiqueThe overlap between these two lists is considerable. A couple of important features on the NRClist are 1) the importance and role of theory and 2) the line of reasoning. Together, they provideexcellent guidance for planning, conducting, and reporting engineering education research.The overriding question facing the AREE developers and researchers (Norman Fortenberry, KarlSmith, Alisha Waller, Ann McKenna, Susan Donohue, Beth Cady, and Wendy Knapp) was,what can be done to help build the knowledge, skills, and habits of mind to conduct high-qualityengineering education research?AREE’s mission was to provide access to resources and to engage the engineering educationresearch community in a consensus-seeking conversation

programs have not given muchrecent consideration to the appropriateness of this requirement. While there has been muchdiscussion of other aspects of engineering education, including the incorporation into thecurriculum of more “soft-skills”, class delivery modes, and capstone design project requirements,there has not been much discussion of the appropriate role for technical electives. This issomewhat surprising considering the desire of many programs and universities to reduce thenumber of credits required for an engineering degree in an effort to increase graduation rates,reduce time-to-graduation, and decrease student debt loads. With this in mind, the primarypurpose of this paper is to prompt discussion of the purpose of technical electives

From this understanding, engineering educators can develop activitiesand assignments that foster these attitudes and enforce practice in the activities of lifelonglearners.IntroductionIn the West, the educational system shows signs of an imminent failure. Whether by design,negligence, or ignorance, graduates from American high schools lack critical thinking andmastery of basic knowledge to be successful in life, higher education, or engineering [1]–[5]. Inmany ways, the current educational moment has forgotten its two-fold aim: “the systematicdevelopment and cultivation of powers of mind and body” and “the systematic inculcation

Based on that, some of the junior students of theprogram were recommended by their internship supervisors for permanent job posts and receivedtheir job offers even before they graduated from the program.As a result, it can be said the internship opportunity as well as the other used educational toolshelped the PETE graduates in their job interviews and improved their employability.ConclusionThe petroleum engineering education needs to follow the change that is going in the oil and gasindustry to keep attracting the brightest minds and prepare them to be the future
