brought to the discussion, including extracurricularexperiences, or even the consistency of measurements in laboratory classes.Similar discussions can examine design decisions and relate directly to material in senior designclasses. Consider an inexperienced engineer who understands that the life safety provisions ofAISC and ACI design specifications rigidly represent “safety of the public.” Without a fullunderstanding of load paths, load redistribution, and assumptions in approximate analysis thisengineer may not understand why a supervisor decides that a slightly overstressed member (persimplified design) is acceptable. The inexperienced engineer may feel that they are being askedto risk public safety, or alternatively extrapolate this

In [10], a student-centered approach coupledwith the full integration of lecture and laboratory formats and hands-on activity based-instructionshowed clear cognitive and attitudinal gains in students. Chapman in [17] provided educatorswith recommendations for developing and presenting an effective and worthwhile lecture.

They identified 14 key skillsneeded for research and development, with a strong emphasis on following the scientific method,including formulating research questions and hypotheses, designing experiments, collecting data,and drawing appropriate conclusions. They analyzed how each skill was taught through thecurriculum and concluded that project work and laboratories were especially important atreinforcing these skills. Finally, Gross et al. investigated a guided inquiry activity to preparestudents for careers in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, specifically focusing onhelping students relate their knowledge and experiences to business needs

Theinitial intention of the design project was to introduce students to engineering conventions andprocedures that can be carried forward into subsequent design and later projects [5]. This1primary intention has not changed over the years with identifying and solving a chemicalengineering design problem at the heart of the course (Ibid.).

Throughout calendar year 2020, our conventional middle school and high school outreachactivities were constrained by local school districts shifting to fully remote instruction due to theCOVID-19 pandemic. As it was impractical to ship activity materials to each student, we adaptedour off-campus outreach to a remote format by presenting virtually from a teaching laboratory atthe University of Michigan. We leveraged the remote teaching platforms in use at each school topresent virtual lessons with live-streamed demonstrations while teachers and students
