This reflection results in modifications to their established meaning perspectivesand the development of new frames of reference through a transformative shift in perspectives[26].A learner’s frame of reference comprises their habits of mind, shaped by life experiences,previous education, personal interests, and social influences [27].

This case study was developed for engineering and construction management students toformulate, discuss, and decide on strategies, actions, and solutions to provide the best value tothe project owner when implementing TVD.

preparingstudents for the complexities of modern engineering roles is an imperative shift recognized acrossacademic and industrial spheres (Queiruga-Dios et al., 2021). This transformation is driven by thegrowing demand for engineers who are not only technically adept but also possess a broadunderstanding of the environmental, societal, and ethical implications of engineering projects (deVere et al., 2009; McGinn, 2018). A key aspect of this educational reform is the emphasis oninterdisciplinary learning and the application of knowledge to real-world problems, fostering ageneration of engineers equipped to tackle global challenges with innovative and sustainablesolutions (Jamieson & Lohmann, 2009; Froyd, Wankat, & Smith, 2012).

Attempts to disrupt the social/technical dualism and theapolitical nature of traditional engineering education have included revising stand-alone ethicscourses and adding sociotechnical components to traditional engineering courses, such as designcourses [7-10]. However, revising stand-alone ethics courses implicitly upholds the disconnectbetween the “technical” and “social,” and adding one or two modules to a traditional
