Paper ID #32607A New Approach to Equip Students to Solve 21st-Century GlobalChallenges: Integrated Problem-Based Mechanical Engineering LaboratoryDr. Siu Ling Leung, Pennsylvania State University Dr. Siu Ling Leung is an Assistant Teaching Professor and the Director of Undergraduate Laboratories of the Mechanical Engineering Department at the Pennsylvania State University. She is developing a new engineering laboratory curriculum to empower students’ cognition skills and equipped them to solve real-world challenges. Her past engineering education experience includes undergraduate curriculum management, student advising
teams. The deliverablefor each module was a laboratory report graded for mastery of the aforementioned problemsolving skills.Here, we will describe our assessment of SBG implementation in terms of student attitude andstudent achievement. We measured student attitude through the use of reliable and validatedsurveys that 1) assess the value of SBG based on motivation theory and 2) confidence inscientific literacy.5,6 Student attitude was assessed at the end of the term. The student valuesurvey measured interest, utility, and cost of SBG. The scientific literacy survey measuredstudent confidence levels on a scale of “1-not at all confident” to “5-very confident”. The surveywas administered at the beginning and end of the quarter. To understand
