Infrastructure should be taken hereas a widely inclusive term, with many systems and meta-systems (the health care system,electrical power, information technology, transportation, etc.) providing the framework for suchstudies. The how of such a course, what such a course might consist of, possible course syllabi,models and the like, is presented by Hart et al.

our economy depends on technological advancement,which requires a workforce that can be innovative and creative [1] and able to work in dynamicenvironments [2]. The need to prepare innovative engineers has led to research on adaptiveexpertise [2, 3], which focuses on the need for students to be on a trajectory where they are bothefficient (knowing something well and able to solve things fast) and innovative (able to applyknowledge to novel situations) [3]. To start students on a trajectory of adaptive expertise, we needto ensure they have a certain amount of domain knowledge and that this knowledge isremembered in such a way that allows for flexible application. This is an acute need in earlyengineering courses especially (e.g., Statics), as
