c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Work in Progress: Implementing Project-based Learning into Sophomore Mechanics CourseAbstractThe primary goal of an engineering curriculum is to lay the groundwork for the remainder of thestudents’ training. Traditionally, the curriculum primarily consists of lecture-based courses, withsome hands-on work, mostly through demonstration. In recent years, the curriculum has startedusing more project-based courses. In these updated courses, the theory covered via lecture ismerged with hands-on project work. This integrated approach is designed to not only give thestudents a foundation of the course theory, but to expand on that and give them practical, hands-on

Dr. Slaughterpointed out that without an inclusive engineering workforce, we are missing viable and importantsolutions to engineering problems.As engineering leadership educators, our obligation to our students extends beyond transmissionof technical knowledge. We have a responsibility to infuse our curriculum with knowledge ofsystemic racism, how bias can impact our solutions, and how engineers can lead and createteams that foster belonging and inclusivity.

Capstone projects frequently involve multiple elements including design,simulation, fabrication, validation, and cost analysis. This complexity requires system thinkingand can easily become interdisciplinary [1, 2].

AbstractIn this research paper, we explore student responses to Utility Value Interventions in staticscourses. Introductory engineering mechanics courses (e.g., statics, dynamics) are critical pointswithin a curriculum, and student performance in these courses can have a strong influence onfuture success. And while these courses are often thought of as “weed out” courses, the ubiquityof these courses for engineers is what makes them an important place for students to develop themotivation to persist through their engineering education. One particularly promising tool for thisdevelopment has been Utility Value Interventions (UVIs) in which students are given opportunitiesto reflect on how their coursework aligns with their lives through short writing
