unattainable in most departments due to the limited space and cost. Vibration can bedemonstrated using computer simulation such as in [4][5]. Computer simulation is easy toimplement at low cost, but there is a limit on providing intuitive and direct understanding betterthan physical vibration systems. Moreover, simulation results cannot reflect the uncertainty anddisturbance that physical systems always include. In [6], a combination of simulation, animation,and experimentation is suggested to help students understand the theory of vibration. In [7] and[8], authors suggested that students can learn vibrations through projects. Some educationaldevices for vibration classes are also available in the market as shown Fig. 1.

In the next phase of the game,"Concept Selection and Debate," they must argue with their teammates to select the best designto submit for their fictional group project. The twist of the game is that the initial bias of students–which design they would like the team to submit– as well as their personality –the method thatthey use to argue– are both determined by randomly dealt cards. This causes the students to stepoutside of their comfort zone and internally reflect on how they argue their opinions normallyversus how others might make a similar argument. In the "Grading" phase of the game, the teamreceives a score based on if they were able to receive a majority or total consensus. The

-related behaviors.Recent literature suggests active learning strategies in sustainability education can help promotestudents’ sustainability behaviors. The term active learning has been used to describe a broadrange of student- or learner-centered instructional methods. For example, Felder and Brent [11]argued that active learning is “a teaching approach that encompasses anything students might becalled on to do in class besides watching and listening to an instructor and taking notes” (p. 111).While definitions of active learning vary, most scholars agree that active learning involvesstudents’ active engagement, continuous participation, action, and reflection [12-13].For decades, scholars have called for college educators to incorporate more

This review, while thorough in some regards, was also very limited inthat it only could look at catalog entries and curricula. In evaluating programs, evaluators review a morethorough self-study which may better reflect the teaching of security within the program. This may be apessimistic view of the situation, as the catalog entries may not be entirely current due to institutionalpolicies and individual instructors may include topics that are not explicitly called out in the catalog.What is concerning, however, is that these limitations do not appear to be present for other core

In justifying her answeron the instrument, Olivia responded, “Probably not perform calculations, that’s usually not myfirst jump to. I kind of like to physically demonstrate the system. I’m very tactile so I like to seehow something would work.” Olivia’s response reflects a level of self-awareness (recognitionthat she is tactile) as a factor that influences her problem-solving approaches.The other four participants with prior engineering experience similarly appeared influenced bytheir recent engineering experiences in their approach to the problems. Other research has shownthat students often use their lived experiences to approach problem solving [17]. All four
