It was a sad but easy decision topostpone EDC 2020 given all the uncertainty of what would happen next. By August 2020,Georgia Southern University classes returned to a hybrid model, while K-12 schools remainedmostly virtual.

While social factors (S) have received less attention, a growingnumber of studies have explored how quality of life, cultural considerations and social trendscan give rise to new challenges and opportunities [12,23,25]. Technological factors (T), in turn,are often more readily identified by engineers, considering not only the technological aspects ofthe specific solutions they are working with, but the implications of more overarchingdevelopments such as digitalization and artificial intelligence [28].

AsKrishnakumar et al.’s research on this data set determined that interdisciplinarity of a design teamdid not relate to the outcomes of the engineering projects or the quality of the design pitch asdetermined by sponsor satisfaction [41], our results also showed no statistically significantcorrelation between disciplinary distance and design

The document that comes with each module includes adescription of the system at hand and the engineering economy problem(s) to be solved. In eachISBL module, the students are given a role. For example, in one of the modules the student is“hired” as a consultant to help a restaurant compare different loan options and select the mosteconomical alternative.
