Engineering in context was created for engineering educators.
If you want to change how you teach engineering concepts but aren't sure where to start, welcome.
Let's figure it out together.

Presented as an ASEE technical paper in 2017

Sean Moseley, "One paragraph and a few simple questions—giving Statics problems human context.", presented at the Annual Conference of the American Society for Engineering Education, Columbus, OH, 2017, Session T539.

After deciding to make contextualized examples as best I could, I presented my results at a session of the Mechanics Division. ​

Motivated by an ASEE workshop in 2016

[2] Jon Leydens, Juan Lucena, and Jessica Smith, “What’s Missing in the Technical? Rendering the Social Visible by Integrating Social Justice Where It Matters Most—Engineering Problem Definition and Solution”, workshop at the Annual Conference of the American Society for Engineering Education, New Orleans, LA, 2016, Session U471D.

A call for a change in how engineering is presented to students was made in this workshop. I just wasn't sure if I could come up with compelling human context on my own. ​
