  • Interpersonal Intercultural Adaptation Orientations

    Open AccessBrent Jesiek, Samantha Lapka et al.ARTICLEJournal of Intercultural…2026References: 7

    Professionals in engineering and many other fields are often expected to work on global teams, setting the stage for frequent interpersonal interactions that span cultural boundaries. To further investigate the nature of such experiences, the findings presented in this paper are based on data collected via interviews and focus groups with 23 technical professionals who had varying levels of exposure to intercultural teamwork. Using an inductive t…

  • Measures of Ethics and Social Responsibility Among Undergraduate Engineering Students

    Open AccessShiloh James Howland, Brent Jesiek et al.ARTICLEScience and Engineering Ethics2024

    Prior research on engineering students’ understandings of ethics and social responsibility has produced mixed and sometimes conflicting results. Seeking greater clarity in this area of investigation, we conducted an exploratory, longitudinal study at four universities in the United States to better understand how engineering undergraduate students perceive ethics and social responsibility and how those perceptions change over time. Undergraduate …

  • Performing at the Boundaries

    Brent Jesiek, Natascha T Buswell et al.ARTICLEEngineering Studies2021Cited by: 2References: 6

    The realities of engineering practice remain opaque and constantly evolving, often leaving graduates underprepared for the workplace and employers dissatisfied with new employees. In this study we shed new empirical light on the lived working experiences of early career engineers in large manufacturing firms. We adopt boundary spanning as the primary framework for our research given growing recognition of its importance in the workplace and poten…

  • Identity in Engineering Adulthood

    Open AccessJames L Huff, Jonathan A Smith et al.ARTICLEEmerging Adulthood2018

    Prior research has established emerging adulthood to be a time characterized by robust identity explorations in professional and nonprofessional domains. However, extant literature provides little contextual explanations in relation to how these identity explorations are experienced by early-career professionals. This article presents idiographic findings from a qualitative study that used interpretative phenomenological analysis on interviews wi…

  • Conceptual Gaps in Circuits Textbooks

    Open AccessDeepika Sangam, Brent K Jesiek et al.ARTICLEIEEE Transactions on Education2015

    Many university-level electrical engineering courses continue to use textbooks as curriculum scaffolds, prescribed texts, and/or reference volumes. Textbook reliance is even more pronounced in courses that teach foundational principles of the discipline, such as introductory circuit theory. This paper reports on the conceptual coverage of introductory electric circuit theory as presented in textbooks. More specifically, a comparative study of six…

  • The Sociotechnical Boundaries of Hardware and Software

    Open AccessBrent K Jesiek, Brent JesiekARTICLEBulletin of Science Technology &…2006

    This article traces the historical development of the boundaries around computer software and hardware. On one hand, the author documents ongoing discussions about the technical equivalence of hardware and software. On the other hand, he accounts for the stubborn persistence of these terms as markers for two distinct spheres of technology, knowledge, and practice. By using theoretical concepts such as “boundary work” and “coproduction,” the autho…
