c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 A Program for Managing Unmanned Aircraft Systems in Engineering Education ABSTRACTUnmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) are an increasingly important aspect of technology. As aresult, they have become a very important tool in engineering education for a variety ofdisciplines. While many physical laboratories or training aids have regulatory and administrativerequirements, the considerations related to UAS are multifaceted and include Federal AviationRegulations, airspace requirements, and privacy considerations. Furthermore, UAS pose aphysical hazard that must be taken into account to protect students, staff, faculty, and

He is one of three researchers selected for early flights with Blue Origin with an NSF-funded payload, and he is also launching payloads with Armadillo Aerospace, Masten Space Systems, XCOR, and Exos. Professor Collicott began activities in innovative teaching in capillary fluid physics, in STEM K-12 outreach, and in placing the positive news of university engineering education and capillary fluids re- search in the national media in 1996.

While the paper’s topic of NDM education rather than specifics of a certain NDM methodwas chosen out of interest in aerospace engineering education, the results and discussion presentedin this paper were entirely surprising to Justin. Particularly, the surprise was that the class taughtby Tyler at the time uniquely addressed many, if not all, of the needs described in this paper. Thisunique observation led Justin to reach out to Tyler to collaborate on this piece. In the section thatfollows, Justin reflects upon their experience in the course in relation to those themes.

One studentdescribed the experience like this: “Our teacher helped us find solutions to our own problemswithout giving us direct answers. This taught me to be creative, and put [in] effort until I can finda solution. It made me better at independent thinking.” Added to a teacher’s guiding students through failure is the power of collaboration. Whencollaborating as a team, overcoming "failures" as a positive behavior get routinely enhanced andemphasized.
