for future outreach projects and a moreknowledgeable community on engineering. In addition, this outreach project exposed theundergraduates to the demand for more engineers and encourages them to continue outreach incommunity.Introduction The United States is increasingly looking to engineering as part of the solution to ourrecent economic downturn, as well as to global challenges including sustainability and ever-changing technology. To this end, President Obama set a goal to graduate 10,000 moreengineers each year from American institutions [1]. In addition, Energy Secretary Steven Chuhas stated, “We need engineers. We need scientists. This is going to be at the heart of how theUnited States is going to remain competitive” [2

Nearly every student whoattended the Making the Most of Site Visits learning experience said they captured a picture toprovide evidence of a particular engineering design challenge. One student expressed frustrationthe team forgot a camera because this student believed “cameras offer better evidence.”Engineering design educators may benefit from helping students learn to critically evaluatepictorial evidence. Moreover, the high value students place on being efficient may undermineother learning objectives. For example, one student team reflected that having a
