used in both an engineering communications course and an engineering ethics courseat a research institution. In this assignment, the Social Impact Analysis (SIA), students are askedto identify and research a current engineering design, product, or concept that is (or soon will be)impacting society. Prima facie, this assignment promises to help acquaint students with thecomplexity of deploying new technology in society (domestically or globally). The actual andpotential impacts of these technologies raise a host of ethical issues that are students must beaware of and engage. However, as analyses and discussions become more nuanced (in light ofcomplexity), they can also become more abstract and, therefore, less practically important tostudents

Once suchpatterns of visual attention are discovered, they can be leveraged to detect the most challengingconcepts, and may enable instructors to provide more targeted help to students.In this paper, the visual attention during solving engineering problems (here, solid mechanicsproblems) of 18 undergraduate students was evaluated using eye tracking.

The new method uses project-based learning and alsoaddresses the issue of having students from multiple upperclass levels on one team.1. IntroductionDesign is an important part of the engineering curricula not only in the eyes of industry but alsothe Accreditation Board of Engineers and Technology (ABET) 1, 2, therefore special attention hasbeen given to design courses at engineering colleges across the nation and worldwide. In designcourses, students integrate and apply their knowledge to design products or to address problems.The design process
