, and (3)benefitting from peer feedback. The study aims to supplement traditional teaching techniqueswith an entrepreneurial and multidisciplinary-minded project that helps students reinforce skillsthat are relevant for the globally connected world. The results indicate that the interventionsuccessfully motivated students to develop their communication and collaboration skills. Thefindings of this study showcase the effectiveness of entrepreneurially minded andcommunication-focused projects that engineering instructors should consider integrating intomid-level discipline specific engineering coursework.1. Introduction1.1 Problem Identification The global connectivity offered by modern technology brings numerous advantages toadvanced

development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills[11], the opportunity to work with like-minded peers and mentors [8], and the chance to learnabout careers in STEM fields [10]. In this article, the authors review the literature on high schoolSTEM hands-on summer camps and discuss their potential impact on student learning and careerdevelopment. Also, the paper outlines the hands-on activities of the summer camp hosted oncampus in the summer of 2022 and their impact on participant students.BackgroundAccording to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, as of 2021, there were approximately 10 millionworkers in STEM fields. This number is expected to increase by 11% by 2031—a growth rate thatis more than twice as fast as all other occupations

, which iswhy learning communities or cohorts have shown success in a student’s first year [17] especiallyfor underrepresented, first generation, or low-income students. In a recent study [17], a learningcommunity was built along with a summer immersion program, a peer mentoring program, and afirst-year experience course. The summer immersion program linked science and social justiceissues with hands-on activities and built a sense of belonging. The results showed increasedsuccess in the first year and those that participated were more likely to graduate. The study notedthat this type of community may not be appropriate for commuter populations if studentintegration cannot be balanced with maintaining connections to their home communities.Overall

and continuousimprovement. A paper was presented at the 2021 ASEE Annual Conference that introduced theframework developed for this program; this is the second paper in the sequence that will share theimplementation of the assessment process and assessment results from the first two years of theprogram.The purpose of this paper is threefold: a) to communicate the process of implementation of theframework developed to effectively assess the student learning outcomes using a learningmanagement system for continuous improvement, b) to share the results of the assessment fromthe first two years of the coursework, and c) to share best practices with peer institutions planningto offer a new degree program in Engineering Technology or similar
