Results of survey and interview data from participatingmentors are reported regarding the soft skill development outcomes over the first two years,along with opportunities for broader impact in the future.1. Introduction It has been recognized that the acquisition of only technical knowledge and engineeringjudgment by graduating engineering students is oftentimes insufficient. In the workplace,interpersonal relations and soft skills are also necessary to work between disciplines and betweenfunctional groups in today’s competitive global market [1, 2].

The preliminary findings revealed that manydeveloped resources and curricula focused on secondary education, specifically middle school.However, recently there has been an increase in curriculum development for primary education.IntroductionArtificial Intelligence (AI) has gained significant attention in recent years across all sectors andfields [1]. In the past, AI was traditionally limited to industry. However, the integration ofengineering and computer science (CS) in pre-college education has led AI to emerge as the nextimperative topic in K-12 education [1], [2], [3]. With new technologies emerging rapidly, such asAlexa and Tesla’s self-driving cars, students must understand these tools and their utilizationstarting in

. Many of these students may not have opportunities forpractical engineering training without this course. In a survey conducted at the end of the course, studentsreported improvement in all of the following three areas: (1) knowledge and skills in and out of theirmajors, (2) self-efficacy in solving complex problems in diverse team settings, and (3) soft skills such asleadership, collaboration, and public speaking. Many students indicated the course offered very valuablereal-world experience during their engineering education. Students also commented that this courseexperience is challenging but inspiring and motivating for them to pursue engineering careers.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicted a 7 percent growthwithin the 2021-2031 decade with about 24,200 job openings available each year [2], but only anestimated 21,561 civil engineering degrees were awarded in the U.S. in 2020 [3]. Furthermore, theCOVID-19 pandemic has resulted in employees quitting their jobs at higher rates than everhistorically recorded [4]; this has been further observed in the civil engineering industry [5].

This type of analysis involves three necessarycomponents, (1) individual student performance data, e.g., courses taken and grades earned; (2)the degree requirements associated with all of the degrees students in a given cohort are pursuing;and, (3) a reasoning algorithm that can reconcile (1) and (2), i.e., the ability to determine howthe coursework on student transcripts applies towards the satisfaction of the requirements in thedegree programs they are pursuing.

Since then, the project expanded to start at the beginning of the semesterand run throughout the semester with a final presentation on the last day of classes. This projectallows for several learning experiences: (1) it increases the ability of students to relate to thematerial as they select groups based on interest, (2) it increases multiculturalism, as the topicswere specifically chosen to be focused on different geographic regions of the world, often with ahumanitarian focus, and (3) it allows students creative license in applying what they arelearning in the course.Active

This conception extended computational thinking beyond merely programming skillsto focus on how computer scientists think when solving problems.
