A review of the literature andwork with experts helped the team to identify promising goals and practices for working withfamilies. These include: 1. Help families understand that engineering is all around them. 2. Honor families’ knowledge and experiences. 3. Engage families as co-creators and problem solvers. 4. Provide support for families to advocate for their children’s STEM learning and possible careers in STEM. [34]These goals drove the creation of a set of family-facing resources and strategies.

engineering educators to make changes intheir curriculum to provide engineers who are career ready when they hit the workforce(Agrawal 2016). One possible such change is toward student-centric learning, which can take avariety of forms. The most common of these is experiential learning, in which a student learnsthrough an experience that either consists of or mimics a “real-life” experience, such as aninternship or an industry-sponsored project. Another less common student-centric tool isdifferentiated learning or differentiated instruction, in which some aspect of the classroom istailored to the needs of specific student groups.For years, experiential learning has been at the core of engineering education through capstonecourses, labs, and real

Ultimately, it is hoped that this studycan inform future studies related to what types of interventions might benefit students.IntroductionLearning to use computational tools is often difficult for engineering students. When thesecomputational tools require classic “programming” aspects such as a text-based interface and theuse of logic and syntax, assigned tasks can become particularly demanding and frustrating. Evenso, the skills associated with using computers to automate, simulate, and model differentengineering problems is increasingly critical for students and practicing engineers.

Why come to the US to studyand have this rich mixture of students with varying perspectives and not take advantage of theopportunity to work in diverse teams? How can the course projects address complex problems andprovide teams that are more similar to industry (and research) teams? How can this project meetthe ABET and AABI needs?
