There are severalfundamental issues, and we provide some solutions to these fundamental issues by reforming theIntroduction to Engineering course.The first fundamental issue is the open admission to the general population of students withdifferent mathematical skills. The curriculum of the engineering programs is much morerigorous than the other majors at VSU. Specifically, all of the engineering programs at VSU areaccredited by the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET). To maintain theaccreditation, the engineering programs are required to follow a very vigorous curriculum.Therefore, the students with weak mathematical background have difficulty to satisfy therequirements and change their major

Similarly, the engaging nature ofthese activities may improve student attitudes toward STEM disciplines and increase thelikelihood that students will take advanced STEM coursework and choose STEM careers.Digital fabrication involves creating physical objects from a digital design.

other words,there is no “one correct solution.” Engineering design can be a very engaging pedagogicalstrategy, particularly with adolescents, because people can bring their values to their designsolution. Optimal solutions are also not stagnant and unchanging. For example, even if asolution were optimum at one moment in time for the specifications and constraints that wereimposed, new technologies, new opinions, and new perspectives might lead to redefined ordifferent solutions. This is a very empowering and unique feature of engineering that is insignificant contrast to scientific and mathematical understandings where hypotheses andtheorems may be refined but generally remain unalterable.
