students’ minds within 2-4 years. Therefore, hard, and soft skills need to be introduced at the K-12 stage. 2. Bringing real-world problems into the classroom via capstone problems and other hands- on exercises is not only the most effective way to spark interest in engineering, but also teaches soft skills like problem solving and collaboration. 3. With so much screen time on mobile phones, computers, and other electronic devices, engaging with students and incorporating soft skills into lesson plans is very difficult. 4. Internships and paid employment are great opportunities and motivators. However, a strong, skills-focused program can easily mold future engineers as well.Faculty

In Fall 2007 a section of thiscourse was taught using the traditional lecture method. In the other sections of the course,methods for improving the technological literacy of these students were developed. Four bestpractices were selected from these methods and taught to an experimental group in summer2010. The best practices are: (1) learning from three hands on and minds on labs, (2) use ofcharts and equations, (3) making students familiar with the top 20 bench mark numbers used inthe industry, and (4) acquiring knowledge about the commercial

Humanists claim that the state-of-the-art scientificknowledge techniques that engineers learn in their college curriculum have a limited shelf life.
