The story of the game was set by the designers ofthe game, and it will be introduced to the player through a narrative voiced over a sequence ofpictures illustrating the story. The narrative for the introduction is as follows: “We all rememberthe day that the bins revolted on our campus. It happened when an engineering student threw aplastic bottle in the composting bin. The ground shook and a loud roar came from the bin. Then,the bins from all of the campus revolted. They grew and started to attack by throwing all of theirtrash back at us. Now we all live in fear of the bins, and we wish we could have been moreresponsible with our trash. However, now

Dassault Systemes, designerof SolidWorks software, suggests their products enable users to validate designs, “without needinga Ph.D. in Finite Element Analysis,” for example.? Bolstering this contention, recent programgraduates are currently using FEA software for designing commercial vehicle wheels and structuralpolymer products. The fact that FEA is now in the midst of the technological transition froma research tool to a professional competency, has significance for engineering curricula at theundergraduate level. For one, FEA exposure to some degree is necessary to meet expectations ofemployers. Second, content of FEA instruction must adapt both to the availability of new tools aswell as to a changing
