for Engineering Education, 2016 Integrating a Research Grade Simulation Tool in a Second-Year Materials Science Laboratory CourseAbstractStudents have difficulty conceptualizing phenomena that are not directly visible. For example,students struggle to understand the atomic-level processes responsible for plastic deformation inmetals. This paper reports on an innovative laboratory lesson redesign that better integrates thesimulation and traditional tensile test components of a unit on plastic deformation that iscompleted by second-year Materials Science and Engineering students. This paper will discussthe evolution of the unit and present findings from the most recent end-of-semester exam asevidence of progress

skills in the middle twoyears of a typical engineering curriculum, and there is an opportunity to find a place for theseskills to be developed in the context of an engineering science course. In an effort to incorporatemore professional skills during the middle years, a Materials Science course for MechanicalEngineering majors was redesigned to include specific learning goals that address creativity,teamwork, communication, lifelong learning, environmental impact, and societal impact. Thecourse has for many years been taught using a traditional, lecture based approach, and the newformat adopts a student-centered, active learning approach with an emphasis on project-basedlearning and integrative learning. While including more focus on

in the lecture course, generally the “Introductionto Materials Science and Engineering”. A survey of university department syllabi found themajority of sophomore laboratories at these universities to be focused on a few techniques andtools, mainly related to mechanical behavior of materials. In the survey undertaken, no universitymaterial science departments were found to offer a course related to sustainable materials.Within the MSE Department at UF, laboratories are central to the MSE student experience. Aspart of an ongoing redesign of curriculum within the department, in 2013 the Junior Laboratorycourses were redesigned to support the core content courses that all MSE students take in theirjunior year. Additionally, the laboratory
