In a study lookingat the use of project-based learning in STEM courses, it was found that utilizing project-basedlearning resulted in an increase in greater STEM skills efficacy, which in turn resulted in higherlevels of STEM career aspirations [9], [10]. A study conducted at Texas A&M University andHouston Community College used the engineering domain-specific self-efficacy instrument,validated by Mamaril [8], to illustrate the importance of using such an instrument for engineeringand engineering technology students over a more general self-efficacy survey [11].The expectation of the course project is that providing a hands-on

The hypothesis of the proposed research isthat, by starting with abstraction, students will build a stronger connection between the physicalworld and the mechanics modeling. In turn, this will improve student’s perceptions about theirability to solve engineering mechanics problems and their motivation to pursue careers asengineers in the future. The specific research questions we seek to answer are: (1) In what waysdoes teaching students how to abstract the physical world affect their self-efficacy to solveproblems in a basic

This means that one student’sexposure to design learning experiences may differ greatly from another’s. Because design is acentral part of engineering, we should expect that students receive appropriate training in designthroughout their undergraduate career.
