classroominstruction before the pandemic.Studies have shown that online education had a specific impact on engineering students. In [3], authorsfound that a considerable number of students changed their short-term plans about scheduling courses infuture semesters. Additionally, a noteworthy portion of students expressed concerns about theeffectiveness of online instruction. STEM students had to spend more time on self-directed learning andincreased time on their coursework overall [4]. Research has shown that blended (or hybrid) learninggenerally leads to better learning outcomes for STEM courses compared to non-STEM courses.However, paradoxically, students enrolled in hybrid STEM courses often report lower levels ofsatisfaction and may not view the courses

Figure 1a: Initial 2D design Figure 1b: Initial 3D Wheel design Figure 1c: Wheel digital modelOur initial design {Figures 1a, 1b, and 1c] utilized a few components that we determined necessaryto make our product as effective as possible. Each of these components was designed towardsaddressing a particular goal or obstacle. Firstly, we determined that we would need a part thatallowed us to concentrate the inflow of water. One of our design goals was to make our projectapplicable in all sorts of drains, and fixtures like water fountains and sinks tend to drain less

that is so widely taken in engineering prac-tice, but that many engineering ethics education programs do not use, given the focus on the‘rules and codes’ approach. In an engineering education students can often be taught one‘correct’ way to solve problems. They are shown how to learn and apply new things, howto perform well and attain the correct answer through hard work, but not how to fail well.Students might end up attempting a problem multiple times, but failure is never expected orincluded as part of the design plan, and more so is always to be avoided, despite the valuablelessons such an experience can give. With ethical problems especially, where downstreameffects of engineering decisions can have many unintended consequences, failure

Thesemotors are DC motors [5], but they also have an inner gearing mechanism that is connected to asecond output shaft (Figure 1a). We chose to use this second output shaft because it would give usa much higher output of power for each revolution that the door did. The design that we chose hasthe shaft, which is keyed and not perfectly round, pushed into a cutout in the shaft that matchedthe shape. To find all the measurements needed, we were able to find a drawing with all of thenecessary dimensions (Figure 1b).
