students collaborating on a single design. Table 1 shows the breakdown of schoolsparticipating for the 2018-2019 academic year. Clusters of up to six teams are formed with a mixof teams from each school. Sometimes multiple teams from the same school are paired in acluster, but they are never from the same section of the course. Each cluster has the responsibilityto develop a conceptual design to solve a specified global problem. The schools that have higherlevel students participating typically have additional design requirements, like completing fullCAD drawings and prototypes.Table 1: Project Demographics for 2018-2019 Location Country Class Number Percent

At the start of each class, an engineering innovation ishighlighted that relates to one the major concepts of that class period. For example, if the class isabout circuitry than an example related to wearable sensors would be relevant (see Table 1).These engineering innovations can be sourced from technology sites, current headlines, or evenfrom “First Looks” in the ASEE Prism magazine (http://www.asee-prism.org).A brief introduction of the subject through visual means (e.g. Powerpoint, videos),should lastaround two minutes, followed with a

However, the benefits of students being exposed to these subjects during the FreshmanYear have been identified by other researchers. Some of these benefits are: students’ earlyrecognition of the presence and importance of probability and statistics in addressing engineeringproblems; students’ recognition that statistics and engineering are not in fact two distinct,unrelated entities; and the
