Maura Borrego's analysis of rigor, drew on archival, comparative, and discursive techniques to evaluate the transformation of engineering education from experience-based work to scientific research.

Since the 2000s, historical methods have largely functioned in service of a scientific ideal of engineering education research. Walter Vincenti's (1990) studies of aeronautical knowledge, Louis Bucciarelli's (1994) pioneering inquiry into the practices of engineering design, and, more recently, Donna Riley's companion text Engineering Thermodynamics and 21st Century Energy Problems: A Textbook Companion for Student Engagement (2011), also relates the history and theory of thermodynamics to contemporary environmental issues and encourages students to investigate the cultural conditions under which the first and second laws of thermodynamics were developed. Step 3: State all assumptions used during the solution process. Seely's article illustrates three distinct but not inseparable ways in which engineering education researchers use. Step 1: Draw a clearly labeled diagram to represent the system Step 2: State what the problem is asking you to determine. 16-Mec-A5 Electrical and Electronics Engineering. For engineering education researchers, formal encounters with history often begin and end with Bruce Seely's survey of the ASEE, 'The Other Re-Engineering of Engineering Education,' 1900?1965.
