Additionally, Krathwohl's revision of Bloom's Taxonomy [14] emphasizes theevolution of the framework, underlining the significance of metacognitive knowledge. This newlyintroduced category reflects advancements in cognitive psychology, stressing the importance ofstudents' awareness of their own cognitive processes—an aspect crucial for effective learning.Building on Bloom's Taxonomy, which originated in 1956 [16], the end goal has always been tocontribute to the development of students’ learning facilitated through a taxonomy of educationalobjectives and in this case, specific to engineering education. The taxonomy not only classifieseducational goals but also provides precision in discussing curricular

This course was designed to provide faculty with a single page of adaptable contentrelated to representation in a specific discipline or topic area that can be easily used in theirdisciplinary courses. The full course currently contains five modules with the following content: 1. Introduction – details on course development and guidance for using and adapting the course 2. Disciplines – 16 single page lessons for STEM disciplines with readings, videos, websites to explore, and reflection

The first section on epistemological views in EER defines epistemology and synthesizesliterature to illustrate 1) why it is essential to study epistemologies in EER, 2) why EER needsepistemic pluralism, and 3) why it is significant to reflect on the language we use to engage withdiverse epistemologies. The second section on crystalizing epistemological lenses synthesizesliterature across disciplines to show how metaphors crystallize the fluid concept of epistemology.Finally, in the section on seeing the spectrum, we briefly review how metaphors have been usedin EER to clarify epistemologies and propose a study design to investigate

Yet, while faculty andadministrators argue that the new curriculum has immense value for advancing undergraduateeducation, they simultaneously worry that such collaborations will circumspect thetransdisciplinary goals of their curriculum. As one academic stakeholder reflected, the degreeprogram has the potential to transform how the university thinks about individual learning plansfor undergraduates that exist outside of traditional disciplinary frameworks, but it also “shouldn’tbecome a pipeline for business and industry.”Alongside this tension—and partly in response to it—the authors of this paper were hired toconduct an external

It's important to note that CAE doesn'tunfold in a linear fashion; rather, it necessitates an ongoing dialogue involving conversations,negotiations, or even disagreements among team members over an extended period, spanningmonths if not years.
