Industry begins to view the new student-engineer as an employee and life-longlearner.2 - Academic institutions begin to behave as talent-pipeline suppliers to technical industries. Thevalue of the institution’s third-path program is then based on; 1) the relevance of thecompetencies instilled in the student-engineers, 2) the ability to provide what the students need,when they need it, at the pace they need it and 3) the integration of, and sensitivity to, the needsof industry, students, society and the economy. 23 - State and Federal

, goal-directed planning [46], and making analytic judgments[49]. The left PFC also plays a critical role in solving math problems [50].A possible explanation for why more focused activation in the right PFC and less activation inthe left PFC was observed among students who completed the concept mapping exercise wasthat concept mapping aided the students’ mental organization of information before the problemstatement task and enabled them to spend more time on the creation of new ideas. Whendesigners are able to spend more time reflecting on a design problem, they can enable morecreativity [51], [52] and the results presented in this paper support this idea.Concept mapping prior to defining the design problem may have helped facilitate a

needsor goals of key stakeholders or potential users [4]. While these tools are useful for uncoveringstudents’ problem understanding, they often involve some simplification from a broader problemunderstanding to facilitate the ongoing design process. Design problems rarely exist in a vacuum;they are more commonly embedded in the real-world, which consists of many open-ended,interacting, and dynamic systems [5], [6]. Thus, to more fully capture students understanding ofreal-world design problems, an approach for mapping a systems view of problems is needed.Toward addressing this goal, we propose to adapt an approach for systems mapping calledParticipatory Systems Mapping or PSM, used in policy planning and evaluation research [7].Uncovering

this early-age exposure. A 2007 studyindicates that the “shut up and learn” approach to teaching, while widely accepted, is notnecessarily effective. In this study [8], a survey of 2,500 pupils indicates that the two mostcommon uses of class time are copying from a board or book and listening to the teacher talk forextended periods of time; whereas the two least common uses of class time are studying real-world applications and learning through experience. Scholars have observed that shifts towardshands-on and individually-engaging activities often radically change students’ perceptions oftheir place in STEM fields and their plans for future education and career paths.Many educators in STEM suggest that the best way to introduce very young

The reflection component is a vital step to improve critical thinking andproblem-solving skills. The overall flow of a typical lecture is shown in Figure 1a.Prior to class, students are provided with a lecture notes package, both physical copy and electronicversions on Canvas. The course notes include learning outcomes, information on the associatedtextbook chapters, conceptual knowledge, fundamental equations, derivations, practice problems, and aspace to complete the solution of those problems.In-class demonstrations include pitot-tube, hydraulic loss demo with manometers attached to a pipe

to retain the core philosophies and educational outcomes, due to the onset of COVID-19, several modifications were made to accommodate students learning experiences differentlythrough a hybrid model of teaching.Figure 1 highlights some of the changes between an entirely F2F model (2019), an entirelyremote teaching model during a Government-imposed lockdown (2020), and a hybrid modelthat was in place for this academic year (2021). As expected, and as previous research hasindicated, hybrid models of teaching require careful thought and planning in terms of bothdesign and execution, with contingency plans in place.

This documentrecommended, “An integrated study of engineering analysis, design, and engineering systems forprofessional background, planned and carried out to stimulate creative and imaginative thinking”[4]. The NCEES Model Law starts the definition of the Practice of Engineering as “any serviceor creative work” [5]. Despite this, while ABET defines engineering design as “an iterative,creative, decision-making process” [6] and Criterion 5 requires engineering programs to includea culminating engineering design experience in their programs, it has yet to explicitly requiredemonstration of creativity or innovation as a student outcome.

theabsence of student mobility, it is not just a short-term solution to the disruption campuses facetoday. COIL should be part of a comprehensive plan to advance internationalization foruniversities. Virtual engagement programs such as COIL and study abroad are not "zero-sum"alternatives, rather they complement one another and provide a more rich and seamlessexperience for students. The expansion of traditional study abroad alone will not meet the needsof engineering students. In fact, since COIL is not location-specific, students and faculty at 2multiple sites are able to participate in a single COIL course, something not possible for moststudy abroad
