ofand diversifying our energy sources, and managing the environment for sustainability; allrequiring new problem-solving skills to create the technological advances that will preserve ourwell-being, ensure our national security and maintain our leadership in the global economy 1. Solutions to 21st-century challenges will involve electronic systems intertwined withstructural, chemical, and biological systems. One example, advances in nano- and nanobio-engineering, will integrate knowledge from information, electrical, physical, cognitive and socialsciences. The solutions are thus inherently multi-disciplinary—involving one or moredisciplines with similar approaches to problem solving—and trans-disciplinary—involving twoor more disciplines

The authors believethat a classroom environment that emphasizes discovery – where students act as researchers andplay an active role in building their own knowledge – is a format that can be readily adapted toother engineering disciplines; furthermore, it can inspire higher-level thinking and lead to a moreengaging learning experience.IntroductionIn a status report prepared for the National Research Council’s Board of Science Education,Fairweather1 states there is prevailing evidence that there are greater student learning gains inScience, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM
