The paperwill also include student & faculty reflection and discussion of the faculty facilitation needed forsuch a service-based project and how engineering educators can consider implementing suchprojects into their programs.IntroductionInterdisciplinary team-based projects in engineering education are an approach to experientiallearning which can provide students with a diverse learning opportunity to work closely withindividuals from different disciplines [1, 2, 3]. Some of the benefits of participating on aninterdisciplinary team include unique solutions to solving complex problems

Learning is a form of AI machine learning that has gained a great deal of recognition in thepast 10 years in a wide range of areas such as medical diagnosis, quality assurance, defectdetection, face detection, autonomous vehicles, and many others. Deep learning networks,however, typically require large training databases of labeled images and often requirespecialized hardware and high-level software expertise. Techniques, such as transfer learningand the proper choice of software tools can mitigate some of these requirements. This paperdescribes a new, project-based course module to introduce deep learning and computer vision toundergraduate multidisciplinary engineering students in a robotics design and applications courseusing MATLAB software.1

To have students gain another transferrable skill early in their academic career.When designing the introductory courses for this program, we also considered the local K-12landscape, as we draw many students from these schools. Students can receive college credit forour Intro to Design class if they complete an introductory course through the Project Lead theWay high school curriculum and a capstone project at their high school.

Furthermore, over 75% of AACSB-accreditedbusiness programs include oral communication as a learning goal [2]. Oral presentation skills inparticular have been recognized as a great need for graduates since the 1990s [3] but researchthat focuses on oral communication, except for in ESL and EFL classrooms, tends to be sparse.Effective oral communication cannot just be “studied” but requires practice.

Assessment practices can play a significant role in students’ learning experience [1].Assessment influences learning in several ways including providing self-confidence andmotivation to students, encouraging both active and passive learning styles, evaluating andreinforcing learning, and emphasizing what is important and providing feedback [2]. However, thequality of assessment is based on the practices employed by instructors [3].

However, the widespread introduction of the A-F grading scale led tounnecessary stress and harm to students [2], questions about the accuracy and validity of thegrading system [3], and a sudden shift from learning to earning enough points to get a desiredgrade [4]. Furthermore, traditional grading schemes can further amplify the effects of biases andpolicies that negatively impact students from underserved groups [5].

The BCI was introducedto the research society by UCLA computer science professor Jacques Vidal in 1973 and hedescribed BCI as “any computer-based system that produces detailed information on brainfunction” [1]. BCI is also defined as “a system that measures central nervous system (CNS) activityand converts it into artificial output that replaces, restores, enhances, supplements, or improvesnatural CNS output and
