Numerousresearch projects have been conducted; and, countless research papers have been published.IoT gained momentum in recent years and became one of the hottest topics in the IndustrialDesign (ID) discipline. IoT transformed the way once acceptable design methodologies intoobsolete. New design disciplines started to emerge to solve complex information architectureproblems.

This result was due to a biased sampling; the four juniors taking the special topic course initiated the effort, and the sophomores that attended regularly were invited by the instructor. We hope to see better understanding of basic principles and excellent performance in the future versions of the course.ConclusionsStatistics Literacy and critical thinking is necessary in today’s world that is fascinated withnumbers and data.

Thus, this project focuses on ruralcommunities to understand how key stakeholders and organizations support engineering as amajor choice and addresses the following questions:RQ1. What do current undergraduate engineering students who graduated from rural high schools describe as influences on their choice to attend college and pursue engineering as a post-secondary major?RQ2. How does the college choice process differ for rural students who enrolled in a 4-year university immediately after graduating from high school and those who transferred from a 2-year institution?RQ3.

In Spring 2019 online homework wasassigned to help students prepare for quizzes but was not included in the course grade, and thusmany of the weaker students skipped it. These improvements were recommended not only by theinstructor but by a number of students in the class as well. 3) An open-ended design project wasadded for the Spring 2020 semester.

However, there was aninitial question on whether the notes produced should be made available to students. The concernwas whether students would bother taking their own notes if this was the case. However, separatestudies by Perry at the University of Memphis and Cunningham et. al at Rose-Hulman found nostatistical difference between test groups that for which instructor notes were and were not madeavailable.10, 11 In addition to the daily engagement with course material through lectures and home-work, a final project was introduced to engage students in higher level learning, i.e. evaluating andcreating in accordance
