The only mention of anything between the two was in(Blaser, Steele, & Burghstahler, 2015) with a list of modifications that could hypothetically bemade to middle-years courses.Amplifying the challenge, middle-years courses have historically been heavily focused onanalytical procedures and technical content (Lord & Chen, 2014). This creates an additionalchallenge of knowledge transfer. Without explicitly developing inclusion skills in the context ofanalytical and technical practices, students might consider including diverse users and teammatesonly in specific contexts - for instance, taking

. The project goals forthe YS have resulted in a design that is bold and innovative but that has proven to be a challengefor many parts of the company. The central conflict is that Suspension and Chassis groups havefound a dynamic instability in the vehicle handling that could result in a roll-over. This is ofparticular concern for the less-experienced drivers who are the target buyers. The other groupsare frustrated with the design changes and associated delays that have come with the completelynew design and an engineering team proposes a simple fix that is attractive but not all that itseems. The game mechanics create a significant challenge for the engineers that hope to preventpotential injuries.Simulation OverviewThe simulation is run in

Inaddition to the security modules presented in lectures, students were given a hands-on approachto understanding the concepts through Model-Eliciting Activities (MEAs). MEAs are open-ended, problem-solving activities in which groups of three to four students work to solve realisticcomplex problems in a classroom setting.

Rather than passively experiencing structural element or system behavior throughpictures, videos, simulations, and small-scale projects, full-scale testing provides students with afirst-hand, lasting understanding of fundamental behavior. Additionally, students also gaininvaluable perspectives often difficult to glean from traditional classroom instruction such asconstructability and tolerance issues. Full-scale testing is essential for student understanding ofstructural engineering concepts and there is a significant need for well-organized experientiallearning opportunities with appropriate scales that successfully illustrate structural behavior.
