Using self-evaluation, the students wereasked to reflect and articulate upon their own competency levels while being led through an illstructured system design

Since all experimental designs haveadvantages and disadvantages, program administrators need to review the relevant options anddetermine which survey approach is the best fit for their program.

An innovator skilled at the highest levels will understand how to play the game effectively within the System of Innovation. A particular System of Innovation need not be based on the Innovation Competencies, but we argue that the more effective ones (even in the natural world) are. The System of Innovation includes the (optional) ability to represent (model) the Innovated System. So, models of System 1 may, but need not, appear inside the models of System 3, and 2. Likewise, we are interested in educating future innovators about the System of Innovation itself, and encouraging their reflection on

The first-yearengineering course is a design, build, test course that enables and encourages communicationbetween students on teams. The teams are broken up into small groups of four or five and taskedwith designing, building, and testing an engineering solution to a pre-conceived problem. Thisclassroom serves as an ideal setting for intervention, as the students are early in theircoursework. This chronological positioning yields students who are more focused oncommunication than mathematical analysis, which they may be less certain of, and makes anychanges more impactful, as they have three more years to

However, a steadyrecovery is observed with one publication each in 2021 and 2022, culminating in a significantsurge to nineteen articles in 2023. This dramatic increase reflects a burgeoning interest and apossible inflection point in research on generative AI applications within the realm of engineeringeducation, possibly propelled by increased digitalization and technological dependence in learningenvironments post-2020.

So the privilege of living in a developed country, having your roads always working, your police not taking bribes, your systems always being in place, your infrastructure always being there, has made you not understand the impact of having people who can actually do these things in the future.” (p. 8)Individualism is also reflected in the culture Tara observed at the

This hegemonic adherence to businessprofessionalism is reflected in how Pawley has described the continual reproduction of anengineering education and workforce development that serves to “indoctrinate students into neoliberalism as the only possible mode of economic development. Their job will be to work in an industrial machine; we do not articulate alternative modes of thought or help students develop cognitive lenses to conceive of a way of being outside this neoliberal worldview” [13, p. 449].An imperative task in the (re)development of the US engineering workforce is to transform theconsciousness of those who take on the title of engineer to break away from the continuedideological imposition

From talking to students sheobserved that if girls were very smart in HS science and math, they were encouraged to considerengineering. But male students of any achievement level were not discouraged from pursuing aninterest in engineering.15 The recent in-depth EWEP study interviewing girls ages 14 – 17provides insight into why. Relevance emerged as the key career motivator for girls. They needto be able to picture themselves doing that job, and to
