Model-eliciting activities (MEAs) are an impactful example of apedagogical approach used in first-year engineering to teach mathematical modeling skills [3].Even though there are some established approaches, there is still a need for more meaningfulways to teach modeling throughout the engineering curricula and especially in first-yearengineering courses [1].Developing computational thinking skills is something that has been emphasized in engineeringeducation more recently and aligns with this call for curriculum that explicitly teachesmathematical and

Even though, all three of these concepts involve modeling, they may not be explicitlydiscussed or demonstrated. Because mathematical modeling is essential to solving and designingengineering problems in the workforce, it is necessary to teach it more explicitly [4].
