Preliminary OutcomesTo date, the primary outcomes are developmental. The team has participated in several importantand formative events, such as the Olin College Summer Institute in 2021, the 2022 STEM for AllVideo Showcase, and the inaugural cohort of the ASEE Engineering One Planet (EOP) Mini-grantProgram (2022-23). These opportunities helped us develop our internal team, learn appropriatemethods of curricular development, understand relevant frameworks to define sustainabilityoutcomes

While answering these questions was optional for the students, itserved as 2% extra credit for the eight questions of the course. This initiative was initially takento offset any occasional missed 30 online homework assignments, which accounted for 15% ofthe grade for the semester. These questions were designed to elicit thoughtful and uniqueresponses from the students. To promote learning from others, students were allowed to seeposted responses from other students only after they had submitted theirs
