Former students from the Patriots Technology Training Center wererecruited to participate in this study. Participants were contacted by phone, and four freshmenengineering students from two Northeastern universities participated in the study.C. Student Success-Oriented Needs Analysis (S2ONA) Framework The S2ONA framework provides a guide to elicit, generate, and document the needs ofengineering students. The purpose of this framework is to translate the voice of the “student,”often expressed as vague ideas in their own words, into functionally precise statements

Eachpartner institution worked within their particular and differing contexts to develop innovativecurricula based on four thrusts: integration of conceptual concepts across disciplines; active andcooperative learning; the use of technology in the classroom; and on-going assessment andevaluation.We
up her model, the student neededto recall the definitions and concepts of various thermodynamic, fluid mechanics and heattransfer mechanical engineering topics. The main topic, thermodynamics, related very heavily toher engineering thermodynamics class concepts. Concepts such as thermodynamic efficiency, theRankine cycle, ideal vs real Rankine cycle, mass and volumetric flow rates, rates of heat transfer,work, and power were essential to the OTEC and solar pond technologies, and to even begin thisresearch she needed an established recall of these concepts. Within another important topic, fluidmechanics, she needed to recall fluid flow inefficiencies such as pipe friction head loss, theDarcy-Weisbach equation, Moody diagram, and more. Heat
