. Students access the active learning modules through an online learning managementsystem. Modules consist of ten units that engage students through relatable examples andpractices of foundational principles and applications of engineering graphics. The team took self-efficacy and academic success measurements, which were then analyzed using paired t-tests. Results support previous findings that there are significant differences in self-efficacyand academic success, including students' mental rotation abilities, when instructors providesupplemental materials. The data also supports that students at risk of non-matriculation benefitfrom the combination of active learning modules and additional video tutorials in the realms ofself-efficacy

course. CLC’s Engineering program has alsostruggled with overall retention, especially amongst underrepresented students. Our NationalScience Foundation S-STEM grant addresses some of these issues by incorporating activitiesaimed at increasing self-efficacy and sense of belonging. The opportunity to improveexperiential learning in Engineering Design Graphics using the Baxter Innovation Lab resulted inthe development of new learning outcomes and the project work featured in this paper.In addition, many engineering students lack practical knowledge of how to use basic hand andpower tools, measure for fabrication, and inspect completed parts by comparing with the originaldesign. This often results in students’ virtual designs being impractical to
