The course aim is to train students in critically analyzing therole of national identities, social- and technological engineering andpolitics in shaping Swedish society. One challenge is to enableengineering students to develop skills in critical thinking by engagingwith texts from social sciences and humanities dealing with topicsformulated in the course aim. Reading, writing and discussing texts onhistorical and contemporary examples are used to attain learningoutcomes, relating to both course content as well as practical skills ofcritical reflection, reasoning

Guided by this prior study, we seek to address the research question,“To what extent can we use post-course open-ended written reflection data to identifyengineering students’ ways of experiencing human-centered design?” The use of reflection datato categorize students’ ways of experiencing human-centered design is unique from othermethods that have extended Zoltowski et al.’s work but may offer a more accessible assessmentmodality for design instructors.
