Instead, itprovides researchers with some ideas as to how to identify and assess engineering literacy,explicating what the research “requires that we understand.”Engineering literacy works to describe an informed citizenry, wherein the person functionseffectively in a society that values engineering, as separate from technology.

Based on the fall 2014 semester data,the kit looks to be as effective as the existing equipment for this course. Data collection andfurther analysis of the data are still on going. Future work includes adding attachments to create aFuruta inverted pendulum for use in more advanced courses. Use of the kit beyond the traditionallaboratory space will also be explored including pedagogies that take advantage of the size andcost will be explored, such as studio learning, project based learning, or additions to an onlinecourse or MOOC.AcknowledgmentsThis work is supported by the Grants for Advancement of Teaching in Engineering from theAcademy for

First, notice the centrality of math and science courses.This can be seen by examining the dependency trees for courses with pre-requisites. Allof these dependency trees include math and science courses. Now, compare this with thetwo “projects courses” that are part of the first and fourth year. As shown, these coursesare widely separated and generally disconnected from the rest of the curriculum. Withinmath and science

While some biological components were integrated,the overall structure of the class was similar to that of a chemistry laboratory, where a series ofone-day experiments with multiple trials were done. The goal was to integrate the problem basedlearning approach to create an experimental process that would better align with what engineersmight experience in other project based courses using a series of problem based learningexperiments (PBLE) while increasing student engagement in comparison to traditional chemistryexperiments.Laboratory DevelopmentThe experimental topics were
