The diagram worked to visually elucidate a problem with thisconfiguration as half of the scene would be spent on story resolution, and the team felt theylacked sufficient time to establish the emotional depth needed to make this fallout resonant. Inthis way the diagram effectively utilized a technical approach to visualizing and understandingstory development. This visualization technique, a strategy borrowed from STEM education,allowed this like-minded group of engineers to converge on common ground.Team 3This team adapted our second studio activity to collectively create their story

Terms such as “gut-feeling” were used to describe how their current judgement anddecision-making compares to their earlier career selves. These results are well-aligned with theliterature on expertise and decision making, which can be used to identify the role of engineeringintuition in future interviews.

Research around effective learning in K-12classrooms demonstrates that an engineering approach to identifying and solving problems isvaluable across all disciplines. Incorporating mathematical and scientific fundamentals viaengineering design-based methodology that infuses engineering habits of mind has proven to bea highly effective model for STEM education.

Engineers are in general good administrators andthat is why they end up as Mayors, Governors, CEOs, etc. It is the logic mind and the feeling thatit is quite a duty to solve problems [4].So this program comes to light up as a spark to challenge engineers to seek for the solutions ofsocial problems that any community has to face.
