Goal(s)
A) Develop and enrich one's understanding of industrial engineering culture
B) Develop a general critical perspective on industrial engineering and connect it to the apprenticeship company. More specifically:
- Encourage both students and teachers to take a critical step back and maintain intellectual vigilance regarding the industrial transformation of society.
- Help reflect on the impacts of industrial engineering to better understand what we are contributing to.
- Understand that industrial engineering tools are not neutral but serve a particular worldview.
- Focus on framing the problems as much as, or even more than, finding solutions.

Content(s)
wo activities are planned in this feedback module (REX):
A reading workshop (2 hours) involving short excerpts from texts, mainly in philosophy and sociology. Students will analyze key ideas from the authors and reflect on their significance in the context of the learning company.
Students are expected to carry out personal reading work: they will choose a book (for example, from the media center with help from Jules Hawkins) that offers a critical perspective related to the industrial sector of their learning company. They will then give an oral presentation of a “reading summary/key ideas.”
The aim is to give students time to read and engage with critical analyses on an "industrial" topic that interests them, in connection with their career project or apprenticeship company.
