2022 ASEE Midwest Section Conference Preparing K-12 Educators with a Holistic Reverse Engineering Approach to Exploring Planet Earth (Work in Progress) Dominic Halsmer, Chris Jacob, Josiah Kessler, and Jasmin Marko Oral Roberts UniversityAbstractEngineering and education students assist in the development of a virtual lab experiment to testhypotheses about the origin and nature of planet Earth. It takes the form of a retrodictive thoughtexperiment or reverse engineering project. The experiment is proposed for a general educationearth and space sciences lab course which is regularly taken by future K-12 educators. Thisproject satisfies

technical foundation is empowered toprovide solutions to current and emerging challenges. However, a technical foundationbuttressed with personal and professional skillsets provides engineering graduates with adistinctive edge when solving problems of global importance. The College of Engineering (COE)at the University of Nebraska- Lincoln (UNL) is committed to developing engineersprofessionally, personally, and interpersonally through its Complete Engineer® program. Thepurpose of this paper is to describe the process UNL COE followed to develop this program sothat others interested in building similar programs might benefit from lessons learned.As part of the COE’s holistic approach to engineering education, the Complete Engineer®program works in

: while a strong technical background is important for an engineer, all forms ofcommunication are critical for professional and personal success. To promote self-introspectionand awareness, some of the circles utilized personality evaluations, such as the Myers-BriggsType Indicator (MBTI) in their mentoring sessions. Some circles chose to have just twoadditional mentoring events (beyond the Kick-off), while some circles had as many as fiveevents in the fall semester. As previously noted, the mentors were represented by a broad cross-section of UA alumni located across the country, so most interactions were virtual. However,some circles took advantage of personal interaction through in-person meetings on-campus.Figure 2 shows a photograph of a

. This was a very dramatic experience for both studentsand faculty. Everyone had to learn to teach and learn through Zoom, install cameras and softwarein home computers, and adjust the existing curriculum to offer it remotely. ORU provided allnecessary training and hardware. For faculty members the most difficult task was to maintainstudent engagement, help them to “hang on” till the end of the semester and return back toUniversity in person in Fall 2020. That was our optimistic plan.The West Pomeranian University of Technology, Szczecin, Poland is a university linking thelong-term tradition of the University of Agriculture in Szczecin and Szczecin University ofTechnology. During the pandemic situation all conferences, events and events

departmentsophomore seminar, etc. The Accelerated BS/MS program was considered in the latestsuccessful ABET evaluations for the EE and CpE degree programs. A key advising goal is tomake undergraduates aware of the option as they finish their sophomore year. Students arequalified if they are at or beyond the junior level with a minimum of 18 credit hours of ECEcoursework and a 3.5/4.0 GPA in these ECE courses.The flowchart in Figure 1 shows the typical path through the Accelerated BS/MS Program. Afterdeciding that graduate school is something the student has an interest in pursuing. At that point,the student should talk with an academic advisor. A discussion of all possible routes that can betaken toward an advanced degree should take place so that the
