Students can be motivated topursue a certain career path if they see the value and need for skilled engineers [18-20].The manufacturing processes course discussed in this specific study introduces industrialengineering students to the theory, principles, mechanisms, and concepts ofsolidification/additive manufacturing processes for materials, emphasizing process selection andthe effects of process capabilities and limitations on design, costs, and quality. The courseincludes lectures, hands-on laboratories, manufacturing facility visits, demonstrations, videos,and

YouTube is a video sharing website that can provide free educational tutorials and instructions on technical subject matter, where students can observe practical human-machine interaction to prepare for lectures and increase overall course performance on exams, assignments, and laboratory projects. Our goal was to compare the overall performance as well as the level of active class participation between two groups of the same computer networking course. We found that the group that used YouTube videos for pre-lecture preparation, consisting of 83 students, scored approximately 3% higher on exams but 5

 Abstract: Undergraduate (UG) research is an important component of today’s engineeringeducation. Research experiences allow students to explore beyond the classroom by applyingconcepts towards scientific discovery and the development of products and technologies thatimpact society. The number of UG engineering students interested in participating in research isincreasing. However, UG research opportunities are often limited to students finding a project,laboratory, and mentor on their own. Therefore, only a handful of students typically benefit froma mentored UG research experience. In addition, students seeking UG research opportunities andprojects have little, if any, knowledge on how to conduct research. A well-structured, guided
