. What are thepreferred learning styles of Gen Z engineering students and how do these relate to theirpersonality types? While we assume that effective teaching in engineering involves active andgroup learning, use of makerspaces, and problem solving studios, we really don’t know thelearning preferences of the new generation of students. This generation has grown up withelectronic screens and social media in front of their faces from a very young age. And now facultyare trying to have them work in groups, take them to the makerspace, and so on without knowingwhether the Gen Zs will respond in the same way as Gen Xs and millennials.IntroductionThere have been many studies performed to understand the relationship between students’personality types

challenges within astructured design course.Shifting budget priorities within engineering departments has meant that a wide range ofinstructors teach senior design. Often, fewer full-time, tenure-track faculty members are teachingdesign. The gap is filled in a number of different ways: graduate student-teachers, adjunct faculty(particularly from industry), and professors of practice.With these drivers, it can be challenging to create and deliver a coherent design experience thatmeets all of these objectives. This paper will present the configuration, tools, and methodologiesof a senior design course sequence that addresses its large menu of objectives in a rational,structured fashion.IntroductionThroughout the Bachelor of Science in Electrical

design of the roadway (Deliverable 2). Each weekof the semester, students attend three hours of technical content lectures, one hour of homeworkproblem discussion, one hour of laboratory session to learn relevant design software, and one houropen to discuss their team projects with each other, the instructor, and teaching assistants (TA).In addition to the design project and homework, students are also evaluated through quizzes andexams. Thus, the course is a blend of problem-based learning, in which each team has to completethe design project, as well as traditional lecture-based recitation learning.Semester ProjectFor the 2018 edition of the course, the design project selected was the construction of a new tourismcorridor in Puerto Rico

contacted the Engineering Librarian to inquire if information literacy could be incorporated into the course. The instructor and Engineering Librarian identified an early lab report where students could use reference materials to verify or check the values they recorded during their lab experiments. Since this lesson plan was supplemental to the learning outcomes identified in other courses, it is an opportunity to reinforce exposure to literature in the discipline. • ME 349 (Fall Senior Year).

smaller universities.The added costs to staffing, research spaces, and enrollment challenges are barriers to starting arich course for aspiring students.One way to creatively support a Cardiovascular Engineering course at smaller, under-resourcedprograms is establishing collaborative relationships with other institutions. With the sudden riseof remote learning tools and the increased proficiencies in remote delivery, the bridge to developmulti-institutional collaboration has never been more accessible. While it is more common to seemultiple institutions collaborate on research, collaborative education can benefit all participatinginstitutions.
