diverse set of practical and conceptual skills.Modeling has become an increasingly important skill due to the rise of computation, which nowlies at the heart of quantitative analysis in science and engineering. As described by Coleman &Steele [5], recent advances in computing have the promise to reduce costly physicalexperimentation through computational modeling. Computational approaches have beenthoroughly adopted in sectors such as aerospace design [6].However, the teaching of modeling in undergraduate engineering is fraught. As noted byDowney [7], “Some students learn (modeling) skills implicitly, but in most schools they are nottaught explicitly, and students get little practice”. Gainsburg [8] has characterized the teaching ofmodeling

As one of thepedagogical goals of this one-semester course is to highlight and promote the interdisciplinarynature of semiconductors engineering, students are encouraged to collaborate and contribute theirtechnical knowledge in the realms of electrical and mechanical engineering to study thereliability of computer chips.

In pursuit of projection execution, this endeavorequipped us with a wealth of practical skills, including fabrication, design, analysis, and the art of technicalwriting. It served as a platform for us to refine our expertise in computer-aided design (CAD), researchmethodologies, and the dynamics of collaborative teamwork. The main implication to be gained from aPBL methodology is a set of multi-faceted skills, not limited to technical expertise but also maintenanceof project timelines and collaborative cohesiveness, applicable to future real-world engineering problems.Without temperature prediction models, cooks tend to rely on inaccurate temperature gauging heuristics

unwaveringsupport.Introduction and BackgroundFirst-generation college students face many challenges compared to their continuing-generationpeers when pursuing an undergraduate engineering education [1]. First-generation students oftenface additional barriers to success in engineering, like inadequate academic preparation [2], [3], alack of family support [4], and difficulty transitioning to postsecondary education [5], which canlead them to struggle academically [6]. First-generation students must overcome these uniquechallenges in addition to the challenges that are common in the broader population. Thetransition from high school to college not only represents a shift in academic rigor but also asignificant change in the learning environment and culture. In

Teamprojects have been shown to help students learn communication skills, creativity, cultural com-petence, and project management, among other skills [2]. As a result, undergraduate engineer-ing programs often incorporate team projects to help students apply their knowledge and to pre-pare them for the collaborative nature of most industry work [3].

machine learning, algorithmiccreation, and natural language processing [5]. While CS focuses on computationalcompetencies, AI explores how computers “sense, think, act, learn, make decisions, create,perceive, and make sense of things” [6, p. 2]. The inclusion of AI was initially in highereducation, but now it is becoming an integral component of pre-college education. Hence, toexpand AI in pre-college education, the Association for Advancement of Artificial Intelligence(AAAI) and the Computer Science Teacher Association (CSTA) created a working group todevelop national guidelines for teaching AI in pre-college education [7], [8]. Furthermore, AI forK-12 (AI4K12) also created guidelines on what students should learn within each grade band(i.e., K

A trend visible in Figure 4is the shift toward extracurricular learning as students progress in their education. First- andsecond-year students perceived more learning in classes for the Engineering Design Process andHands-On Design groups, where third- and fourth-year students were more likely to attributetheir skills to extracurriculars. This trend makes sense; upperclassmen have had more time toobserve, practice, and teach skills in extracurriculars while underclassmen are still in the processof understanding fundamentals in both classes and extracurriculars.

Understanding Problem Solving using Multiple Solution Methods Hao Li (WL11@mit.edu) and A. E. Hosoi (peko@mit.edu) Department of Mechanical Engineering Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyBackgroundOne of the key challenges of Engineering Education is developing students’ ability to navigateand solve moderately- or ill-structured problems with multiple solution paths. Existingtheoretical and conceptual frameworks can provide a basis for understanding this challenge. Theframework of self-regulated learning can be applied to problem solving. In self-regulatedlearning, the problem solver (or learner) first plans, sets goals, and lays out strategies
