The problems are designed with guidance and oversightfrom faculty to address the academic appropriateness of the inquiry to ensure educationaloutcomes. For the bioengineering curriculum, these stem from ABET student outcomes C, D, E,G, H, and I. More explicitly: • C:  Ability  to  design  a  system,  component,  or  process  to  meet  desired  needs  within   realistic  constraints  such  as  economic,  environmental,  social,  political,  ethical,  health   and  safety

In the context of ourframework, this category captures personal commitment to social justice and the sustainability ofthe design and processes. At the novice sophistication level, a student approaches design as asingular task without intention to apply what has been learned to a new situation.

can see this worked out in Kallenberg’s [22] approach tothe teaching of ethics to engineering students, and we can also see that by substation of theengineering examples it is a more general application of design as knowledge. As both Kallenburgand Koen point out in any area of thought and practice that is ‘messy’ heuristics are valuable.Exercise 3. Student activity in relation to teaching decision making and its outcomesI had neither of these things in mind when I asked my students to design and implement a lesson toevaluate the merits of Wales and Stager’s design/problem solving heuristic for teaching decisionmaking.

As pointed out by Kabo and Baillie[10], concepts such as social justice, sustainability, humanitarian practices or ethics can bethreshold concepts to define what a changemaking engineer is. Using this idea, the authorscreated three distinct categories to classify how students defined changemaking engineering. Thefirst group represents students who did not relate engineering and changemaking in ways thatreflect the perspective of the university, or the RED project.

Usually these requirements do not include coursessuch as calculus or physics, which are considered as technical courses. These non-technicalgeneral education courses can be divided into two categories. One set of courses appear in almostall schools. For example, all our eight sample universities have a PE (Physical education)requirement and an English requirement. Seven of the eight schools require such courses asPrinciples of Marxism, Contemporary Chinese History, Fundamentals of Moral Ethics and Laws,and Military Theory. The second set of non-technical
