In addition, the use of open-endeddesign problems provided an additional benefit of allowing faculty to introduce broader issues,such as environmental and ethical considerations, not often incorporated into "content" coursesin the curriculum. For example, one of the assignments used in the heat transfer course wasstaging a debate about whether the U.S. should adopt the Kyoto protocols. In addition torequiring an understanding of global warming mechanisms, the assignment required students toconsider a number of environmental, ethical and political issues not generally encountered in anundergraduate heat

Studentsintegrate and apply knowledge from their major field of study toward a specific project.A number of biomedical engineering programs, like the University of Connecticut2 , have a fullyear of required senior design courses, here referred to as Design I and II. The major deliverablein Design I is a paper design with extensive modeling and computer analysis.

The writing skills of the students are tested inthe design project reports.Ethics 101: The College of Engineering offers a separate ethics class. If a student is expected tolearn real world design, then we need to teach them some responsibility that goes with it.Concepts such as proprietary design (belongs to a design team), importance of time commitment(deadlines), and proper reporting of faulty components and equipment (Lab) are emphasized.Course ContentAs mentioned earlier, this is an introductory level digital design course

As a result, elementary teachersmight then be better equipped to build students’ engineering identity and encourage them toconsider engineering as a potential career option.In addition to helping students develop engineering identities, exposure to engineering inelementary school is also beneficial for developing students’ engineering habits of mind(EHoM). EHoM are internalized dispositions and ways of thinking that engineers draw uponwhen confronted with problems [4] and include things such as optimism, persistence,collaboration, creativity, systems thinking, and attention to ethical considerations [5].
