It was great to see that the students could notunderstand why it would be a problem for anyone. The students found it so intuitive and easythat they just could not believe that this has been a difficult-to-understand concept in the past.While one could argue that the group used for analysis was small, it must be noted that trailerclasses historically perform poorer than regular classes. In the previous Spring semester (2019),the content was presented without the MBE method to a 7 person trailer class. Only 2 studentscould solve the problem correctly.

This resulted in 106 of 112 students giving consent: Fall 2017 (32students), Fall 2018 (42 students), and Fall 2019 (32 students). The course consisted of threemajor laboratory experiments. The lab report topics were convection, airfoil, and truck drag. Asthe semester progressed, the latter two topics were not based on knowledge from prerequisitecourses. Students were provided additional information literacy instruction to help with theirsearches. The supplemental instruction was also a part of an effort to improve students’information literacy skills in this program. Each experiment included theory presentationshalfway through

These features highlight unique aspects of engineering thatenable a more comprehensive understanding of what engineering is and how engineering works(Pleasants and Olson, 2019), and further emphasize how an understanding of design is embeddedin broader contexts and shaped by social interactions.
