datasets.Developed by OpenAI, ChatGPT was released to the public in November 2022, garneringwidespread attention and fanfare. In less than a week, over one million users had accessed GPT,and by the end of January 2023, that number had surpassed 100 million [2]. ChatGPT is a largelanguage model (LLM) chatbot capable of simulating human conversation [3]. It is built upon agenerative pre-trained (GPT) LLM model that has undergone a series of significant improvementsin capability. The LLM being utilized in ChatGPT initially started in 2018 with GPT-1, the firstLLM based on transformer deep learning architecture [4]. ChatGPT was not released to thepublic, however, until the creation of GPT-3.5, and is currently built on GPT-4. The GPT modelsreceived supervised

To understand how studentsengage in the practice of persisting and learning from design failures, we must first understandhow, if at all, they recognize that a design failure has occurred. We studied a classroom of fourthgrade students engaged in an engineering design challenge and examined the ways in whichdesign failure occurred and

undergraduate engineering education havepersisted over the decade following the initial inquiry, and to understand whether the results ofthis research are generalizable to smaller programs, this paper intends to gather similar data onengineering student experiences, expectations, and knowledge both in general and in relation tothis paper via a survey that will be distributed to project participants when the project isimplemented in winter semester 2022. A mock-up of this survey is included in Appendix II .

We had two delimiting factors: participants had tohave completed their undergraduate engineering degrees at least 10 years prior to our survey launch andthey had to either have completed their engineering training in Canada or be working in Canada.
