Beginning with the end in mind or “backward design,” aterm introduced by Wiggins and McTighe5, the course design process began by considering thesignificant understandings and skills first-year students need to gain prior to moving further intotheir respective ET curriculum. Based on this information, and in association with revisedBloom’s taxonomy6, the student learning objectives (SLO) for this course were updated toinclude the following. Gain awareness of electrical and computer engineering career opportunities. Reinforce critical thinking and problem-solving skills in engineering though team-based and hands-on experiences. Harness

were consistent with the responses from 13Matusovich’s traditional aged participants. All students indicated that being an engineer was closely linked to being a problem solver and having the “engineering state of mind” which encapsulates all of these traits. The main difference between our participants and the prior Matusovich study was that none of our adult participants communicated any level of uncertainty about what it means to be an engineer. This can be explained by the fact that all of our participants had prior engineering work experience and had clearer conceptions of what being an engineer means. Furthermore, adult participants must have a passion to pursue engineering in order to
