Kahn [2, p708] defined psychological safety as ‘feeling able to showand employ one's self without fear of negative consequences to self‐image, status, or career’ ,and Edmondson [3, p350] defined it as ‘shared belief held by members of a team that theteam is safe for interpersonal risk taking’. In this paper, we explored the advantage ofmeasuring “Psychological Safety” in engineering teams because there is a potential for thismetric to be used by educators as a way to measure student comfort and inclusion on a teamproject.We searched for literature written about psychological safety and teams in STEM education.Although we might miss existing papers, our literature research provided hits thatpsychological safety is

Thorsteinsson and Page [1]discussed the evolution of 3D printing and Industry 4.0 and remarked that “Industry 4.0 is touted,by many, to change the lives of millions over the next several decades. Industry 4.0 is a term thatseems to be synonymous with 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing”.The literature suggests that students and graduates who possess direct metal additivemanufacturing techniques knowledge and skills have a career advantage compared to studentswhose knowledge and skill base is limited to plastic printing [2]. Therefore, there has been arecent interest among institutions in direct metal additive manufacturing. Many institutions

“Building Informed Designers” project is to incorporate engineeringdesign into existing high school science courses with minimal expense to improve designthinking and problem solving by all high school students. A secondary goal is to increase thenumber of students who will pursue college or community college engineering career pathways.Problem solving and thus problem framing are a key first step of the engineering design process.Davis, Beyerlin, & Davis [3] describes the role of a problem solver as one in which she“examines the problem setting to understand critical issues, assumptions, limitations, andsolution requirements.” Problem solving has been studied and found to be critical in design anddecision making [4-8].

Often thesecourses have many hundreds of students and are, by virtue of their size, among the mostchallenging to teach effectively13,36,62,48.
