The pilot of the activity took place in spring of 2019 and this initial experience waspresented at ASEE in 2020 [6]. Since then, the activity has been run four times and iterated tohelp strengthen the goals of the activity and assess its effectiveness. Changes since the initialpilot have included options for remote courses, added reflection time, and a focus on overalldesign process instead of detailed mathematical questions. The current

, the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) andthe American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) have discussed the need for engineersof the future to be “T-shaped” professionals who possess a deep subject knowledge and theability to apply that knowledge broadly [1-4] (the vertical of the T-shape refers to this depth ofknowledge and the horizontal refers to the ability to to transfer this knowledge to variousapplications).A problem exists, however, in that engineering students often face difficulties in transferringknowledge and developing the connections that exist between concepts and courses in theirprogram of study [5-7]. This deficiency is not often addressed by faculty teaching engineeringcourses, which are often taught in silos and

Rather than create an entirelynew textbook, OER statics and physics textbooks were adapted. A research student was hired inthe fall of 2020 to support the creation of the OER, using the Pressbooks platform. The studentwas recruited based on their performance in the Fall 2019 Statics course with the facultyresearcher, for their

The course’sprimary objective is to introduce Mechanical Engineering students to programming and toprepare students for subsequent courses including courses in numerical methods,experimentation and instrumentation, and system modeling. This course also serves as one ofthree courses introducing first-year students to Mechanical Engineering. While the course hasexisted for some time, it began a transition to its current form in Fall 2019. The courseintroduces students to C++ programming on the Arduino platform and programming in theMatlab numeric computing platform. The course focuses on fundamental programming conceptssuch as variables, conditional statements, loops, arrays, and functions and on programmingapplications in mechanical

then took the paper-based FE exam. Between Spring 2014 and Spring 2018, while using the CE 411 materials for theFE CBT exams we saw a sharp decline in students' performance with the lowest pass rate at65%, which was 13% lower than the national average pass rate 78%. To address this decline, westarted developing and implementing SDLMs in Fall 2018 and modified CE 411 to be ME 416FE Exam Review. Although we didn't anticipate COVID-19 impact in Fall 2019, theimplementation of SDLMs allowed students to continue learning online without meetinginstructors face-to-face. Nonetheless, we still meet students live on ZOOM for the 1st session ofthe course to give an overview of the course and answer questions from students.The objective of this study is
