We also recommendthat discoverability of standards in our collection should be improved through catalogingimprovements and creation of finding aids for different audiences.IntroductionWhen designing something for human use, there is often a free-wheeling, creative phase that isunbounded by reality. However, at some point in the implementation of the design, constraintsbecome a part of the creator(s) process, whether it be the laws of physics, available materials, oran agreed-upon convention, ethical limit, or rule.

ResultsThe pass rate in Fall 2017 (passive learning textbook) was 78% (57 of 73 students), which wassignificantly lower (p-value = 0.04) than 91% (69 of 76 students) in Fall 2018 (active learningtextbook). Of the students who did not pass, 10 changed majors in Fall 2017, and 2 changedmajors in Fall 2018.Course grades are shown in Table 1. Fall 2018's homework average was 88 out of 100 points,which is interpreted as significantly higher (p-value < 0.001) than Fall 2017's homework averageof 71.

had never heard of these goals but were alleager to incorporate the sustainable development applications into their proposed design projects.Each student was asked to conduct research on the UN Goals and then write a brief essay onwhich goal(s) they wanted to incorporate into their proposed design project. Each group thendiscussed the goals selected by the individual team members and decided upon the goals thatwere most applicable to their design project. These results can be found on Table 2. Of the 17UN Goals the engineering students selected eight as illustrated in Figure 2. • Goal 5: Gender Equality • Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation • Goal 7: Affordable and Clean Energy • Goal 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure
