focus on solarenergy projects on campus. Prior to running the course, we studied the university’s Energy MasterPlan, learned about the current state of solar energy on campus, and identified four potential newsolar projects. We divided the 14 students in the class into four teams, with each team conductinga feasibility assessment for their solar project over the course of the class. Students started byexploring the solar we already have on campus. Once familiarized with the current system, weguided the students in completing their assessments of the new projects through four, two-weekphases, with each phase focusing on a different sociotechnical analysis for their project: 1) social,2) technical, 3) economic, and 4) environmental.

In this paper, we present our initial charac-terization of the team’s epistemic culture and our analysis of the instance we identified. We alsodiscuss possible barriers to teams having epistemic negotiations.1 IntroductionThere are three certainties in life: death, taxes, and group projects. Whether working on a teamleads to innovative solutions or frustration often depends more on the dynamics among team mem-bers than the project itself. These dynamics can be especially important on interdisciplinary teamswhere individuals may have different ways of thinking about knowledge (or epistemic beliefs)because of their disciplinary backgrounds [1, 2, 3].

analysis of homework scores did notshow any significant difference in students' performance in modules with short videos comparedto those with long videos. In response to the survey, a considerable percentage of students indicatedtheir preference for short videos, as it helped them maintain focus. However, a higher percentageof students acknowledged that despite the varied video durations, the lengths were suitable for thepresented topics. This suggests that relatively longer videos could be acceptable if the nature ofthe topic requires it. However, these videos should be interactive to help maintain students'attention.1.

StrengthsIntroductionIt has long been known that there is much to be learned from failures in engineering. Engineeringcontent aside, we can also learn from the primary causes of these failures. A 1976 study byMatousek and Schneider involving 800 cases of structural failure resulting in 504 deaths and 592injuries found that when engineers were at fault, 36% of the failures were due to insufficientknowledge on behalf of the engineers [1]. In most circumstances, this source of error should beavoidable. Students in engineering and technology are exposed to a vast range of topics in theirgiven discipline making complete mastery of all topics difficult. As instructors it is important toknow that it is unrealistic to expect that 100% of the students leaving the

results of students’ self-assessment in an engineering economics class. It should benoted here that self-assessment is a general tool that can be implemented in any course.Self-assessment, as in letting students assess their own work, is one of the most interestingassessment topics in literature both in secondary and in higher education. The complexity of thetopics ranging from what constitutes self-assessment, why do self-assessment and how to useself-assessment results are some of the reasons why this topic is interesting and getting attentionin the literature. The interest in self-assessment is due to many reasons. Boud [1], Dochy,Segers and Sluijsmans [2], and Sluijsmans, Moerkerke and Dochy [3] suggested that the reasonfor this greater

The use of standards is so central toengineering that the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), whichaccredits colleges and universities that offer engineering degrees, requires that an accreditedprogram “incorporates appropriate engineering standards and multiple constraints” into acapstone design experience [1]. Standards are valued in industry, as well. A survey of managersin technical sectors showed that the managers viewed standards as essential to daily operations,regardless of their company’s specific sector [2
