is that we had more content than we couldreasonably address within time available for the course, so focusing on objectives and outcomeshelped us pare the material down to its most important components.A revised version of Bloom’s Taxonomy [3] was used to write learning outcomes and objectivesin measurable terms. As a result of an iterative process between SME and curriculum designers,course level learning objectives were aligned with the learning outcomes; likewise, module-levellearning objectives were aligned to course-level learning objectives to ensure that each learningmodule could help learners to achieve intended learning outcomes. To exemplify this point, thetable below lists learning outcomes, course-level objectives, and Module 1’s

Changesin the self-efficacy scores were evaluated relative to student gender, ethnicity, and ACTcomposite score. These data were obtained with student consent from the office of the Registrar.A total of 17 female and 16 male students were surveyed. Ethnicities were divided into threesub-categories: (1) White (any students with White as their only race, N = 21), (2) Asian (anystudents with Asian or Asian and White listed as their race(s), N = 7), and (3) UnderrepresentedMinorities (URM, any students listed as Hispanic, Native American, Black, or Pacific Islander

My idea was just grasp the results and that's all… I didn't follow the whole idea of the [paper]... [My advisor] wanted me to see that all these things are not very difficult. All the [big] equations we see are actually very small, simple equations… Now when I see some very difficult equation, I know that it's not difficult. Inherently it's very simple.

, and to what extent are they interested in impact-driven work?2.2 Impact-Driven Interest as a Career ChoiceThere are many capacities in which one may address societal challenges, e.g. as a volunteer,employee, and/or founder. To narrow the scope, the current study explores how engineeringundergraduates consider addressing societal challenges as a career choice.In the early 1990’s Robert Lent proposed a model of career choice called Social CognitiveCareer Theory (SCCT, see Figure 1) that provides a framework for understanding, explaining,and predicting the processes through which people develop occupational choice (Lent & Brown,2006; Lent, Brown, & Hackett, 1994). The SCCT model has been shown to be useful inpredicting career choice

the most significant limitation of the analytic rubrics: they didn’t effectivelyrepresent for the students the way(s) in which design deliverables are evaluated in anon-academic context, and therefore writing in response to those rubrics wasn’t providing the“authentic,” real-world design project experience that is one of the goals of our course. Asupervisor or potential client wouldn’t decide how they felt about a design report by tallying up aseries of points awarded for discrete categories, nor would they be likely to evaluate an oralprogress report by considering the technical content separate from the way in which that contentis delivered; audiences react and respond to written and oral communication much moreholistically--even those
