Exit Surveys: The goal of the survey is to determine the impact of hands-on learning asstudents reflect on their academic experiences. Student input also reveals the expected value ofthese experiences in their professional careers as they have, typically, completed their job searchand have an understanding of the knowledge and skill sets that will employ in the near future.4.0 ComparisonThe three models of implementation of the hands-on activities can be compared against severalcriteria as shown in the table below. The model described in Section 2.1, Small In-ClassActivities in Lecture-Based Courses, is abbreviated as “Small In-Class Labs.” The modeldescribed in Section 2.2, Student-Owned Equipment in Lab Courses, is abbreviated as“Ubiquitous

Looking at the ―why‖aspect is especially important, and an instructor can start by asking students to examine why theychose engineering as a career and how they might react as a professional in a country that, overthe course of a decade, experiences incremental shifts in political ideology. What my studentsdiscovered is unsettling: that the Holocaust simply could not have happened without thecomplicity of the engineering community. This exercise requires that student reflect

overemphasis on diverse engineeringapplications and Python libraries within lectures have diluted its focus on programmingfundamentals. As a result, many engineering students lack the foundational programmingknowledge needed to effectively apply computational tools in more advanced engineeringcourses. Moreover, this deficiency leaves students underprepared to meet the programming andcomputational demands of many engineering careers upon graduation. Recognizing thesechallenges, we seek to redesign CS 101 to better align with the needs of engineeringstudents.Previous research provides valuable insights into CS1 redesign. Efforts to redesign CS1 coursesfor non-CS major students have introduced specialized approaches tailored to different studentinterests
