StylesAbstractRecent pedagogical studies indicate that short, focused content presentations followed byinteraction and assessment are more effective in teaching GenZ (ages 17-22) students. Byredesigning two high enrollment lower division courses at the University of Idaho, Introductionto Computer Science and Engineering Statics, and targeting GenZ learning styles, we hoped toimprove both our retake and retention rates.Since GenZ students are familiar with video technology as part their education, we hadinstructors record short video segments which corresponded to in-class lectures. In conjunctionwith the Engineering Outreach program, an office was repurposed into a small faculty recordingstudio where the videos could be recorded at times which could easily
mechanical and electrical engineering graduates become practicing engineers, many areengaged in industrial automation projects. Knowledge of industrial motion control technology isan absolute must since industrial automation is designed primarily around specialized motioncontrol hardware and software. Industry needs engineers who can do system design andintegration using motion controllers and Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) as the primarybuilding blocks for automation/mechatronics applications. They are not expected to designcontrollers, control algorithms or interface electronic circuits at the board level or programmicroprocessors such as Arduino 4,5 . Instead, they need to combine theoretical and practicalknowledge to select industrial
-effective program activities have been implemented in ourundergraduate program, and could be adapted by engineering programs in otherinstitutions. With continuous commitment by faculty members and department/collegerecognition, the positive impact of the program could be sustained via merging into existingundergraduate program.Introduction Recent technological advancements have increased the need for a highly trainedworkforce that meets the vital technological needs of society. Community colleges and 4-yearcolleges have been on the forefront in providing students fundamental knowledge of science andtechnology, as well as developing their technical skills to prepare them for a post-graduateindustrial or graduate school environment.

In the traditional classroommodality, faculty lectures on a particular topic of the day according to the syllabus while studentslisten and take notes. Depending on the content, the faculty assigns homework and/or quizzes toensure students are studying and learning the concepts covered. However, multiple studies [3-5]have shown that this passive learning of STEM courses may be ineffective and may foster lowengagement. The instructor needs to introduce new concepts, motivate the students on the needto cover that concept, perhaps derive the
