Likewise, the survey shows that the students have clearlyidentified the activities that will have an impact in improving their work skills inmultidisciplinary teams: 64% of the students consider that lectures given by specialists fromother disciplines will lead to improvements in this topic.

Contribute to society as an active citizenWe administered this questionnaire to 227 first-year engineering students at the University of NewHaven in 2014. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was first applied to analyze the collected data.The EFA results suggested that 27 out of the 37 items loaded on 10 factors should be retained inthis instrument and the item numbers in each of the factors should be adjusted according to thelevels of internal consistency and reliability [9]. Based on these EFA results a revised instrumentwas developed in the second design stage. The second questionnaire (Appendix 3) contained 50items with 49 loaded on 14 factors and 1 as the comparison indicator [12

What aspects of the student experience do students identify as causing or relating to those feelings?BackgroundFeelings and AffectThe term affect can refer to several aspects of a student experience that relate to feeling oremotion, as opposed to cognition or behavior. A student’s affect has the capability to greatlyimpact their school experience: it has also been found that a positive affect correlates to highersuccess in school [1]. A student’s emotions can impact their cognitive functioning [2], theiremotional intelligence and abilities to work with other students [3] and can affect ethical decisionmaking [4]. However, beyond considering how affect impacts other elements of a studentexperience, it is also important

importance of society inengineering design. A few of the papers defined the steps of the design process and includedsocial elements such as “identify a design need” and “research a design need” (A3, p.74). Thesewould need to be further defined in order to ensure students were properly considering the needsof their users and the impact on society. For example, one paper further defined the outcome tobe “Appreciate and consider the non-technical constraints (ethical, political, aesthetic,environmental, economic, cultural, etc.) in their work” (A5, p.2).Many of the findings which came out of the research also reflected on the importance offurthering this connection to society.

I do discussion in my classes frequently, which is probably unusual for engineering classes, but discussion can come up in a variety of ways sometimes that relate to ethics because I incorporate ethics in all of my classes.Whereas some professors believe discussion is not suitable to engineering courses, such as onemale professor who suggests that in engineering there is a “black and white, so-called truth…”and, to paraphrase, “a bridge that failed is always going to fail regardless of student voice”, other
