of a balancedpedagogical approach, that is, the one that integrates experiential learning with traditionalinstruction.One promising way to enhance self-efficacy is through the implementation of hands-onpedagogical approaches that actively engage students in experiential learning. Hands-on learning 2involves activities like Capstone projects, field exercises, modeling, simulation exercise andlaboratory experimentation, providing students with tangible experiences that reinforce theoreticalconcepts. A primary purpose of hands-on activities is to provide learners with actual experiencesthat allow them to apply engineering skills in real-world

personal andprofessional settings. Another example is the ‘Professional Continual Learning’ module in ECEGR 3710, a spring quarter course forstudents in their junior year. It is at this point that many students begin thinking about post-graduation pathways and exploringopportunities to strengthen their career preparedness. Finally, ECEGR 4870, the first course in a three-quarter senior design (capstone)sequence and a key touchpoint before students enter the workforce, seemed well-suited for the ‘Social Responsibility’ and ‘Bias andMicroaggression’ modules.Table 1: Pilot Implementation Plan for AY 2024-25.

The QKDlab, for instance, prompted students to abstract concepts about photon polarization,measurement, and error detection into a functional mental model of quantum-securedcommunication. Similarly, the poster project required students to generalize learning acrossmodules into novel applications, promoting higher-order thinking and deeper conceptualmastery. Finally, students engaged in Active Experimentation through the design andimplementation of their own research projects, an essential capstone that allowed them to testand apply their ideas independently. For many participants, this was their first opportunity toengage in self-directed research using advanced lab

PMKS+ allows users to save, export, and share their designs with others, promoting the exchange of ideas and fostering a collaborative learning environment. This feature is particularly valuable in educational settings, where students often work in groups and benefit from discussing their designs with their peers and instructors. • Accessible: PMKS+ should be compatible with multiple operating systems, require no downloads

upcomingcurriculum adjustments.6. Conclusion and RecommendationsBecause the FE data consistently shows a below-average performance on ethics questions, VMIcan consider alternative means to improve students' professional engineering ethical formationand, in turn, FE exam performance. First, VMI can consider tracking how students apply ethicalframeworks in capstone projects or internships to observe and evaluate the integration of ethicsinto engineering practice. Surveys or interviews with alumni can also offer valuable insights intothe long-term impact of ethics education on professional practice. Alternative approaches in theclassroom may include more case study analysis using codes of ethics, structured reflectiveessays to focus on professional issues

: the practice of certain canonical problems in acertain collection of subjects is supposed to habituate the student into a certain way of thinkingthat we think constitutive of a physicist, chemist, or other flavor of scientist. But science alsoventures out into the unknown, past the canonical problems and the canonical experiments, andso students need to be formed in ways of handling these more ambiguous situations where rightcourse of action is not clearly defined. Many undergraduate science curricula includeopportunities for such formation, often in advanced laboratory courses or capstone/senior thesiscoursework. Assessment of these formational outcomes is possible, but not as straightforward asfor technical outcomes. The question then is

Indeed, for first year design projects, when students may have highly variedbackground experiences and limited technical knowledge, sociotechnical projects still provideaccessible ways to gain experience with framing design problems.
