At a large R1 university in the mid-Atlantic region, more engineering students‬ ‭than ever before entered their first year, placing in Pre-Calculus instead of Calculus 1, and were‬ ‭classified as pre-math-ready. Being ‘math ready’ and placing into Calculus 1 is critical for‬ ‭engineering students due to the engineering curriculum's reliance on mathematics and the‬ ‭barriers related to the subject. This study shares the experiences of 15 first-year engineering‬ ‭students who were behind in math during the 2022-2023 academic year. Most participants were‬ ‭in their

Twenty-five percent did 15 or moreactivities. All but one of the activities introduced in the workshops was used by over half of theteachers. These were two model-based inquiry lessons (phases of the Moon and Earth’s seasons) andtwo engineering lessons (designing walls and creating windmills). Almost all of the teachers who hadused an activity reported successful implementation. Moreover, almost all of the teachers who used anactivity reported that they would use it again next year.

He must know enough of the shop methods tounderstand how his designs are to be built. He should, if possible, get as much time in the air ashe can, either as a pilot or as an intelligent passenger.
