- Abstract: Modern engineering education tends to focus on mathematics and fundamentals,
eschewing critical reflections on technology and the field of engineering. In
this paper, I present an elective engineering course and a 3-lecture module in
an introductory course that emphasize engaging with the social impacts of
technology.
