Mr. Caccese’s research interests include the anthropometry of device usage, computational modeling of different bodily systems, and statistical evaluation of varying data sets. As a consultant, Mr. Caccese applies his knowledge to assist with the analyses of injury causations and accident reconstructions for a variety of projects. He assesses whether motions, accelerations, and loads can cause injury, and his experience includes contributing to analyses and reconstructions of motor vehi- cle crashes; sports, and occupational injuries; and falls.

Students take this course either in the fall or spring of theirfirst year depending on their math placement. The course is project-based and students areexposed to three small projects related to different engineering disciplines and one large termproject that spans over half of the semester. In fall 2019, the three sections of the course weremodified to incorporate use of the makerspace more consciously into the final project. This wasdone with two objectives in mind: (1) to improve the first-year retention of engineering students;and (2) to engage the Gen Z students more with the learning and give them broader experiences.As part of their first

Thesebadges being a 0% column in the gradebook allow students to access and see their achievementswhenever they wanted. Additionally, they would receive a notification from the system when thebadge was “entered”. The idea behind this badge system is to encourage students to work hardand achieve various skills through the semester. The badges are like those often earned in a videogame.

So providing studentsopportunities to give kindness to others may be impactful. There are examples of this throughservice-learning activities [46] and through acts of intentional kindness [45]. An ideas that fitsinto more traditional engineering courses with team projects includes requesting that teammatesgive a few elements of positive feedback to their peers. In most engineering settings the normappears to be that good behavior is not commented upon because it is expected. That means thatpeople are more often given critiques or negative feedback.
