Moredetails of each of these stages are supplied in the sections below, and an overview is providedin Figure 1. Within each phase, iterative cycles of testing and refinement based ondesign-based research methods [19,20] were employed. Early undergraduate students,advanced undergraduate students, early career engineers, and faculty members were identifiedas key stakeholders and consulted during the development process

PjBL is an instructional method that aids students in deeper learning anddevelopment of non-cognitive skills that are necessary for their future career [4]. The main issuewith these two instructional methods is that it can present significant challenges for students thatare under-prepared or are not provided adequate resources (e.g., instructor office hours or tutors)[5,6]. A variety of PBL and PjBL methods utilize programming software such as MATLAB toallow students to simulate their model and various conditions.At the Virginia Military Institute

However, when asked about “Digital Twin” 95% of students (21 out of 22 responses)indicated they had never heard of this term and/or have no knowledge of it. One student thatindicated he heard the term also commented “don’t know much about it.” Figure 4 shows thestudents self-rating on their knowledge on Digital twin, Industry 4.0

However, the procedure was oneway; to incorporate feedback in the procedure, some additional questions can be introduced.Therefore, to improve learning, video exercise can be paired.The mentioned course is now offered for four different programs. Because the number ofstudents in the class is relatively large compared to higher level courses, the interaction with allstudents beyond the classes is challenging for an instructor. However, the interaction is importantfor most students since success for the remaining semesters and in their career depends on thesolid foundation in this basic course. The survey results

. Due to the complex and multidisciplinary nature of their projects, engineeringstudents must learn how to work effectively on a team, as the majority will be expected to workas part of a team after graduation. The projects that they will face during both their academic andpost-academic careers will involve problem-solving and critical thinking, and the unique skillsand perspectives of each team member are necessary to arrive at effective solutions. This paperintroduces a pedagogical boardgame aimed at simulating arguments within an engineeringexercise, as well as the study planned to track the changes.A diverse team has people with different backgrounds, experience, and ways of thinking.

If a student is able to master all the fundamental skills, they will have a C- and they willpass the class as shown in Table 2. While students who only pass the fundamental skills may notget as much practice with the essential and advanced skills, they will still be exposed to theseskills on instruction days and through homework and laboratory exercises. By achieving masteryon the fundamental skills, students should have a full understanding of these topics which theycan apply to future engineering courses.
