When put together, these three parts work hand in hand to describe thesystem completely. These parts of the same system also make it easy for students to divide theirthought processes into separate perspectives. These parts are (i) Project Concept Diagram/s, (ii)User Operational Flowcharts, and (iii) Functional Block Diagrams. Literature suggests that thesecharts/diagrams have a unique place in the System Engineering approach.

enrolled in the course have mirrored State University’s undergraduate population. The studentpopulations comprise significant income and racial gaps, in which 49% of students are racial and ethnicminorities and 36% of students are first-generation, meaning they are the first in their families to attendcollege (State University, 2023). A third of students interviewed were first generation college students,but due to anonymity concerns we offer this as a general distinction rather than identifying particularstudents in the Table 2.

We prepared a lesson plan and are in the process ofcreating an interactive video tutorial for use with the platform. We hope educational robotic kitslike this would be able to successfully spark the notion of creativity, skillfulness, and motivationin future roboticists.AcknowledgmentsThis work was supported in part by the Launch Grant and the School of Engineering Dean’sOffice at Wentworth Institute of Technology.

Several faculty awarded minimal extra credit for completing the survey, othersposted the link as an announcement or assignment with no extra credit, and three facultydistributed the survey to all students in the program. Three hundred forty-two responses werereceived. Although it is possible that some respondents may have completed the survey multipletimes, the authors thought that would be unlikely given the timing, with the survey beingadministered in the last two weeks of the semester. Survey responses were gathered and analyzedas described below.Descriptor analysisThe survey asked respondents to “Think of a professor(s) who has or had a positive influence inyour life or education.
