Various terminologies for tacit knowledge have been adopted:visual analogy1, episodic knowledge9, reflective practice8, personal knowledge2, expertknowledge1, and strategic knowledge5.Due to the development of emerging CMC technologies and geographically dispersed businessenvironments, the use of CMC has been inevitably accepted.

impact on student motivation and success.2. IntroductionEngineering education seems to have come under increased criticism lately, with manycompanies and students arguing that engineering curricula are too abstract and disconnected [1,2]. It is interesting to reflect upon similar concerns of Henderson [3] and Grinter [4] dating backto 1983 and even 1955. These studies consistently indicate that engineering education shouldhave the following properties: 1. Relevance to the lives and careers of students, preparing them for a broad range of careers, as well as for lifelong learning involving both formal programs and hands-on experience; 2. Attractiveness so that the excitement and intellectual content of engineering will

Mangiante & Moore (2016) investigated what pre-service teachers (i.e.undergraduate students studying education) new to engineering attended, analyzed, andresponded to when working with fourth grade students during engineering activities. The authorsanalyzed written reflections from the pre-service teachers and assessed their attention to threedisciplinary practices—defining the engineering problem, designing solutions, and optimizingsolutions (NGSS Lead States, 2013)—as having a low, medium, or high focus on studentthinking.

Typically, one can identify a range of solutions that are clearly wrong and arange of solutions that are better than others. This range of responses is opposite to the "checkthe answer in the back of the book" instruction in circuit analysis or other engineeringtechnology coursework. Some students find this aspect of ethics personally challenging.Offering students a case study that is directly associated with the engineering profession yields acontext-based discussion far more valuable and productive as students develop their professionalidentity.

Most of the interview participants werenearing the end of their undergraduate education so they could reflect on their experience andimpending transition to industry.
