The NID unitexplicitly builds in a redesign to ensure students experience an iterative engineering design cycle.During the implementation phase of their design, students were asked to consider the followingwhile redesigning their prototype designs: (1) potentially change materials to bring down the costof their design, and (2) redesign their prototype to collect more water. In addition, they wereasked to keep in mind that they have to use something from nature to inspire their design.Students can be observed testing their storage tank and going back to evaluate the design at theirtables to make corrections and retest.After testing their designs, students were asked to fill

According to the NGSS, at the middle school level, the new standardsallow educators to provide participants with interactive instruction that promotes analysis and interpretation ofdata, critical thinking, problem-solving, and connections across science disciplines [3]. Keeping that in mind,the lessons were also developed to encourage participants to critically think about engineering at home.

, engineering societies, and government that there had been a decline in the qualityof undergraduate engineering education over the previous two decades10-11. The result was astrong push towards providing both intellectual and physical activities (such as dissection) toanchor the knowledge and practice of engineering in the minds of students12-13.Product dissection was successful in achieving this for several reasons. First, it helps coupleengineering principles with significant visual feedback14 and increase awareness of the designprocess15. Product dissection activities spread around the world as a community emerged aroundthe development and propagation of these activities12-13,16-22. These activities have since evolvedto all levels of undergraduate
as cold-calling,group work, or the use of i-clickers, these activities may still be successfully implemented withsome modifications such that these students have advance notice that they will be called torespond, the roles of group members are clearly articulated, or students have a longer time toprovide their answer via an i-clicker, for example [28], [29]. Even with these sorts of challenges,in the context of a course that is thoughtfully designed with inclusion of neurodivergent studentsin mind, the hands-on, experiential nature of engineering work is particularly well suited tocombine with active learning activities such as case studies and problem based learning.Additionally, it has been found that hands-on and problem-based activities
