Unlike the proprietary/subscription resources listed above, many of thesetools are open access or at least at a more accessible price point for many libraries.

Figure 1 shows two dimensions of Bloom’s taxonomy: cognitive and knowledgedimensions [19].However, this distinction between “higher” and “lower” can confuse educators in somehowevaluating the quality of an LO based on where it sits in the taxonomy. As illuminated by Lang[20], professors can fall into the trap of simply wanting to teach “higher-order thinking skills” andassume that the lower skills can be looked up using technology such as search engines and thelike (including LLM tools like ChatGPT). In reality, achieving skills such as “create” and “plan”in Bloom’s taxonomy requires a human to keep and think about ideas and concepts within a fieldof study that requires the

Permitting glue and other adhesives in design-and-build projects at this levelprevents students from researching better joining methods and fasteners. This is why restrictingadhesives full-stop is a beneficial project constraint—it motivates student to explore thehardware libraries for better, smarter solutions as opposed to quick shortcuts. Furthermore, thestudents must put forethought and planning into these decisions so the specific hardware can beordered and shipped in time to be utilized in the project build.

competition. In the engineering design competition, the students receiveinstructions to create a design that addresses a specific problem. For 2024, the theme was“decades.” The instructor assigned students to one of fourteen groups, which focused on adifferent decade (1910s, 1930s, 1970s, 1980s) from which to derive a problem. For example,students assigned to the 1910s developed a technological plan to address issues stemming fromthe 1918 influenza pandemic. Students assigned to the 1930s actively helped resolve the GreatDepression. Students in the 1970s worked to resolve the energy crisis, while those in the 1980shelped address the Exxon Valdez oil spill.
