Thus, theintroduction of this facility will provide invaluable hands-on learning experiences for all STEMstudents.The connection between theory and practice has long been recognized as one of the mostchallenging aspects to teach in engineering education. Hands-on experience in a laboratoryenvironment offers a vital tool to solidify concepts covered in lecture courses.

research groups [7]. The interactions of thesetwo factors (e.g., advisors and peers) play a crucial role in a student's performance in researchenvironments [7]. Graduate students are often engaged in faculty-led laboratories (or research groups) andcollaborative teams as students develop both their teaching and research skills [7, 16, 17].Depending on the size of the research group, faculty advisors' roles and interactions might vary(e.g., large-size, mid-size, or sub-size) [7]. Crede and Borrego found that there were substantialdifferences in the perceived roles and interactions between faculty and graduate students acrossdifferent sized labs [7]. In particular, large-sized groups appeared to be run more like smallbusinesses (i.e

The resulting data from approximately 200 consentingundergraduate mechanical engineering students in each of the synchronicity options (N > 600)showed that grades for certain lab experiences (i.e., early labs with high levels of skill-building)actually benefitted from an asynchronous online format, even above in-person offerings, while alater lab with deeper dives into specific skills produced better learning and ratings from studentswhen offered either in-person or synchronously online.

-centered engineering design for 1) supporting and engaging students with community needs asthey learn disciplinary practices and 2) advancing social change through the teaching andlearning of engineering.IntroductionDesign is recognized by practitioners and educators as an essential attribute of engineering [1],[2]. In recent decades, human-centered design (HCD) has arisen as a method for developingdesign thinking in engineering. This approach to design places human needs at the center ofdesign processes, valuing users’ experiences and perspectives as fundamental for the solutionscreated [3], [4]. Barlow and Levy-Bencheton describe HCD as “the opposite of the mad scientistscenario, in which a solitary genius working in a laboratory comes up with a
in written form, with limited time for students’questions. In such settings, the teacher is the focal point of instruction, and students participatepassively as listeners. In this situation, while it is true that some educators conduct exemplaryexpository classes, delivering content with both depth and eloquence, engaging studentseffectively and promoting comprehension of the subject matter. There are also instances in whichthese classes integrate active strategies to invigorate the learning experience. In turn, active learning strategies play a pivotal role by positioning students as activeparticipants in the learning process. Noteworthy approaches include Hybrid Teaching [1], theFlipped Classroom, Peer Instruction [2, 3], Team-Based

Dealing with this challenge requires a clear understanding of what is thefoundational material for a MFGE student to
problem by deciding what to focus onabout the problem. This aspect also makes teaching design difficult, especially in the first yearwhen students have completed little to none of their technical coursework. To overcome thisissue, faculty sometimes reduce the complexity by making the design problem purely technical,removing social and policy factors. However, this approach can actually make the problem moredifficult for students, by obscuring the problem context and meaning. Another way facultyaddress the issue is by reducing the ill-structuredness, providing kit-based projects in whichstudents lack opportunities to frame the problem.We sought to investigate how first-year students navigated a complex and ill-structured designchallenge, guided by
