Fun games are also used to introduce conceptssuch as analogies and illustrations to convey complex topics.The effectiveness of our approach is confirmed by assessing the students’ assignment grades preand post course which show significant improvement. Similarly, based on the student courseratings data students rated highly the relevance and usefulness of this course. We believe thatwith the skills they develop in this class, students will start their engineering careers well-prepared to progress upward professionally.1.

How does the student actively secure their potential job? The typical answerwould be by procuring an internship. Traditionally, internships can be secured by students apply-ing for formal internship programs, or even by arranging an internship through the career centerat their respective universities. However, there are internships that are obtained by non-traditionalmeans. There are times when opportunities arise in the most unlikely circumstances

We advocate forproviding these mastery experiences to non-electrical engineering majors to develop technicalliteracy. To this end, we developed an electronics course aimed at a broad, interdisciplinaryaudience which guided students through a series of projects teaching the fundamentals ofsoldering, circuits, and microcontrollers, then a guided, open-ended circuit design project. Wemeasured self-efficacy and sense of identity before and after participating in the design project.We found a 13% increase in self-efficacy

A senior project is an opportunity for students in the field of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) to apply the knowledge and skills they have gained throughout their academic career to solve real-world problems. The objectives of a senior project are to provide students with a platform to demonstrate their creativity, critical thinking, and problem- solving abilities while enhancing their technical knowledge and practical skills
