The integrated engineering topics introduced in ME 1000include: design methodology, mechanical hardware, manufacturing tools, spreadsheets, 3DCAD, Newton’s laws for linear and rotational motion, graphing and numerical techniques,statistical analysis, oral and written communication, teamwork, and safety. ME 1010 builds onthese topics and additionally introduces computer programming, electricity and magnetism,electronic circuits, economics, and ethics. These topics are introduced and reinforced in thevarious course components: lectures, labs, reading assignments, problem sets, a team

In 2015, Husman and colleagues[18] explored the emotions of engineering students enrolled in an ethics course. The researchersused self-reports and salivary cortisol at the beginning and end of class and found a negativecorrelation between class-related positive emotions (i.e., enjoyment) and students’ cortisol levels.The more enjoyment students self-reported, the less psychological stress they experienced andthe better they performed.Villanueva and colleagues have reported using self-reports with electrodermal activity sensors[19], [20] while Goodridge, Call, and colleagues have used

Getting students to appreciate the real-world societalrelevance as an integral part of design is often challenging. The World Energy Exercise, whichintegrates an interactive and state-of-the-art computer simulation with a role-playing exercise,opens a social and active learning pathway, which helps students connect their engineeringdesigns with real-world societal relevance.

teamwork, ethics, social context, and other broadconsiderations. The need to teach design has traditionally been addressed in Capstone courses.There is a trend to introduce design earlier in the curriculum such as through first-yearintroduction to engineering subjects or through required design “cornerstone” subjects2.A difficulty frequently observed in design projects is that students begin work too late. This hasbeen referred to as “time scallop” -- as deadlines are approached, effort levels rise rapidly andfall back to low levels repeatedly2. A challenge to implementing early design experiences inengineering programs is the readiness of the student population for hands-on design work.
