alsopresented.Introduction of Problem and NeedThe benefits of project-based learning have been well established, especially in providingstudents opportunities to develop their independence, responsibility, and social skills [1]. This, inaddition to the push of the Accrediting Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) toinvolve students from multiple disciplines in solving complex engineering problems [2], haveresulted in the implementation of interdisciplinary team-based projects throughout engineeringcurricula.However, team-based project teaching can experience several instructional challenges,particularly when working with a large number of students and projects. Interdisciplinary teamformation can also impose difficulties as students vary in technical skills

trajectories through a learning outcomes enhancement cycleIntroductionThe way quality is defined in higher education (HE) depends on whether the object ofassessment is outcomes or processes. For Harvey & Green [1], the notion of quality can beunderstood as exceptional (special, very high standard), as perfection (no-defects), as fitnessfor purpose (meets requirements, fulfills objectives), as value for money (efficiency), and astransformative (qualitative change). Furthermore, quality in HE is linked to regulatoryframeworks and monitoring processes [2]. In the last few decades, quality assurance in highereducation, particularly in engineering education, has gradually shifted its focus towardexternal accountability [3]. In the

Many universities across the UnitedStates are adding undergraduate and graduate degrees in data science or related fields to help fillthese job demands, but kindergarten to twelfth grade education system is not keeping up [1].Many schools focus on applications and resources, such as Microsoft Access and Excel. Theytend to omit the ideas and theories in their lesson plans [2].To help fix this problem, the

This paper describes how the hands-on activities embedded within the Boot Campplay a pivotal role in shaping the students' learning experience. Pre- and post-surveys enable usto gauge knowledge growth and the confidence to apply quality engineering principles. In aconstantly evolving industrial landscape, this Quality Engineering Boot Camp could be an idealsetting to empower participants with the skills and knowledge needed to excel as quality experts.1 IntroductionQuality engineering is integral to modern manufacturing and service industries, deeply rooted inthe foundations of industrial and manufacturing engineering [1].

shift in pedagogical practices among industrial engineering educators, ultimatelyempowering the next generation of industrial engineers to drive innovation and progress in theindustry.IntroductionCuriosity is a primary motivator of learning, invention, and innovation. Curiosity is essential inengineering education for fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and lifelong learning skillsrequired to face 21st-century issues [1], [2], [3]. Lindholm [4] posited strongly that modernity isfundamentally rooted in curiosity, which serves as a catalyst for knowledge acquisition, freshperspectives, and creative thinking in both individuals and groups. In the opinion of Pluck andJohnson [5], curiosity is an aspect of intrinsic motivation with great

To date, the exploration of creativityin an educational environment, and the limitations of teaching, learning, practicing, and assessingcreativity in such settings, have not been adequately assessed or understood, but the relationshipis beginning to be conceptualized in various ways [3].As an attempt to incorporate creativity training into engineering education and to enhance thecreative thinking skills in undergraduate engineering students, poetry

wanted to ensure that students develop skills in not only project management but alsoworking in teams. The literature shows that Project Management Education needs to include apractical, hands-on project where students can use the theory they are learning to plan, manage,and execute a project with real stakeholders. Van der Horn and Killen found in their research inproject management education that courses in project management require more than justknowing the theory but rather having “lived experiences” and challenges for effective learning[1]. In addition, input from the university’s and department’s advisory boards demand thatstudents have project management skills that they can employ straight out of school.As part of redefining the course
