pedagogical tools is an excellent way to enhance a student’s knowledge.Introduction Providing proper educational needs for engineering students requires an understanding of basic foundational principles and laws. Some students start learning this information through a shroud of confusion or partial understanding. In this technological society, professors are inventing ways to engage their students while maintaining the integrity of engineering education. The discussion of results from a collaboration between several universities determined that students may not always understand a topic or how it can be applied in industry. (1) Additionally, professors believe that once students matriculate through their program an increased interest

-12 students [1], robotic soccer competitions have spanned the globe [2],and various professional organizations, including ASME [3] and IEEE [4], have included roboticcompetitions in their student design competitions.However, none of these competitions seem to have similarities to many other long-term,successful intracollegiate engineering competitions (such as SAE Baja or Heavy Lift). Thesecompetitions inspire students, but also allow teams to improve their designs and technology overthe years, rules that change slowly, and clear rules on what can and cannot be “reused” fromprior competitions. The result of this is that over the years, a winning Baja car from years agowould struggle to compete in today’s competition – teams have gotten much

. While there are several prominent methods for dissecting and analyzing a program ofstudy, in Mechanical Engineering two methods dominate the discipline. Accreditation drivenefforts, such as ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology), take a large scaleapproach addressing entire curricula and generating large amounts of data. The structure of theaccreditation review imposes external drivers of interaction and investment and the focus inthese efforts is often on outcomes rather than instructional delivery and process. Otherstructured efforts, such as SUCCEED (Southeastern University and College Coalition forEngineering Education), focus on staging student learning and developing connections andtransitions between classes
