Students who attendedinstitutions where women comprise a higher percentage of engineering students scored higher onthe leadership construct. It does make sense that some differences among engineering fields mightbe observed, reflecting cultural differences among engineering fields. In terms of the latter finding,it’s encouraging that attending a program with higher gender diversity might indirectly

Itcan also be used as an efficient way to watch a recorded lecture from an arbitrary viewingperspective, as was proposed in [13].

Note thatsince the time-based data is no longer real-valued, the resulting spectrum is no longer conjugatesymmetric such that the center frequency is not a center reflective point.

In conjunction with further qualitative data collection, a variety of survey anddirect assessment data from the entire two-semester course will be analyzed at the conclusion ofthe spring 2019 semester.Collecting qualitative data regarding student perspectives about working on interdisciplinaryteams allowed us to view students’ attitudes and self-reflections on their team experiences. Basedon the instructor’s own goals and literature-based reported gains [11] in interdisciplinaryteamwork, we were initially interested in how students perceived their team’s ability to beinnovative, identify customer needs, and receive rapid clinical feedback

Thus, new information can be connected appropriatelyand will reflect each person’s objective reality; it can also be connected to the incorrect beliefsand interpreted subjectively; or, it will be rejected (not retained), if it contradicts the learner’sbeliefs.11 Inductive teaching methodology is an active learning methodology which allows theinstructor to expose mistaken perceptions and beliefs of learners, and lead them to reframingtheir beliefs before new information is introduced and connected to the learner’s

Other students said they could not become engineersbecause they were not creative or didn’t know how to ideate. Several students said they couldbecome engineers but would not because they planned to pursue another career of interest. It ispossible that all of these students might find engineering more appealing if they saw their ownskills and interests reflected in engineering.

Having reached this much anticipatedmoment, we find ourselves, as engineering educators, obliged to reflect on how well we have lived up to thepromises of the “engineer of 2020.”12 In this paper I reflect on the work left unfinished and explore ways tothink about what comes next. I seek to look beyond this moment and to imagine how the engineer of 2050
