on our observation of students and teams during the semester and on confidentialpeer evaluations that are completed by each student at the end of the semester. The peer evalua-tions allow each student to evaluate the work of his or her teammates and to comment on thefairness of the division of labor during collaborative work. With all of this mind, we shouldmention that for most students, the IAF is chosen to be unity.The grading policy described above is rather complex, and it relies heavily on the instructor’sawareness of the work ethic and “sociological health” of each of the teams. It should be men-tioned that as of the spring 1999 semester, we are only in the third semester of teaching Interac-tive Dynamics. Thus, it has not been taught

But, it does not help them maintain classroom discipline throughout thesemester. Similarly, an orientation to the importance of the study of dynamics over thefour millennia beginning with Hammurabi’s code and ending with contemporaryengineering failures caused by dynamic conditions from recent newspaper articles mayaddress the ABET program outcomes f (ethical responsibility), h (societal context), and j(contemporary issues)18, but does not engage

Theenvironmental impacts of the proffered solutions are considered, and the students are expected todemonstrate the sustainability of their designs. Since many ethical issues present themselves inengineering design, the students demonstrate an understanding of such issues and, as relevant totheir design example, discuss them, including conflict of interests and tradeoffs between costs andbenefits to society.

MethodologyThere has been some debate in the educational community about the fact that the results ofrandomized control trials (RCT's) seem to be having little beneficial flow-on effect toeducators' practices in the classroom 17. Scriven 18 has written that, "there are many issues ofgreat importance in education ...where it is ethically and/or practically impossible to useRCT's" whilst Wolfe and Crookall 19 maintain that classically acceptable experimentalresearch, as used in the physical sciences, is impossible to duplicate in realistic educationalsituations.A problem with randomized, control trial, experimental methods is that in many situations it isnot possible for some of the method's criteria to be met. For example, it may not be possibleto randomly
