Analysis studied FEA using ANSYSMechanical APDL. Five teams of senior students each performed a different type ofoptimization on the FSAE chassis design as the final course project. In both courses, studentsrecord predicted torsional rigidity and predicted chassis weight for their respective designs. Thejunior Vehicle Design I students measured torsional rigidity of two completed FSAE vehicles.Assessment of relevant student learning outcomes for each course and student feedback arepresented.IntroductionThis paper provides a tutorial for using the CATIA V5 Generative Structural Workbench todesign a space frame. Junior level vehicle design students demonstrate the application of theprocess to their own individual FSAE chassis designs. In parallel

This is understandable, given that engineering is a globalprofession [6] and culture can affect how we learn, work, and communicate with others.There is a growing body of engineering education research that focuses onunderstanding engineering culture. Although culture is a complex phenomenon [7]-[8],understanding aspects of it, especially at the disciplinary level, is important for findingways to improve engineering education in general.Understanding how engineering students form their identity as professionals help us todevelop pedagogies that enable students to become successful professional engineerswithin their field, enhancing important soft skills such as teamwork, creativity,problem-solving, and adaptive experiences [3

Theframework is currently considered a draft and will be revisited and updated based on theimplementation efforts of several pilot schools and the feedback from the EOP network.Through the EOP, The Lemelson Foundation seeks to “equip all future engineers across alldisciplines with the fundamental skills and principles of environmental sustainability.”Furthermore, The Lemelson Foundation hopes that this effort transforms engineering educationacross the globe.

data analysis utilized inductive, open coding of significant statementsthrough horizontalization, as all transcripts were read with equal value (Moustakas, 1994). Thestatements were parsimoniously reduced and clustered into initial patterns through the successivecombining of similar significant statements. The initial patterns indicated broad categories inwhich faculty leveraged their own IMPACT mentoring program lessons learned with theirstudents. For example, many faculty members shared that they discussed the George Floyd trialand verdict with their mentors and led similar conversations with their students. Additionally,some communicated that they gained tailored insight from having one-on-one conversations withtheir mentors, so they

While someresearchers noted it was especially challenging for rural teachers to connect classroom contentwith rural students’ lived experiences and interests [10], others reported better opportunities forrural teachers to offer hands-on experiential learning and to connect STEM topics to rural life[8].Arnold, Newman, Gaddy, and Dean [1] assert that there is a lack of high-quality researchfocused on the specific challenges facing teachers in rural school settings. The seeminginconsistencies and conflicting evidence in rural education research may relate, in part, to theabsence of a clear and consistent definition for rural, as well as to the evident complexity anddiversity of rural contexts [1].

The use of Flipgrid was generally rated highly, with an averagescore of 4.3 out of 5 using a Likert scale. Approximately 53% of the 163 students surveyed didnot identify any disadvantages of the class, and fewer than 4% cited negative aspects of usingFlipgrid [7].

Students are provided a chance toprepare themselves for practicing real-world engineering design prior to entering the workplace whilesimultaneously learning project management, resiliency, and teamwork skills [1].

This entrepreneurial mindsetencourages engineering students to combine the technical skills learned in their traditionalengineering coursework with a mindset to “create extraordinary value for others.” This mindsetis comprised of three critical factors, including: Curiosity, Connections and Creating value. [1]Curiosity focuses on the rapidly changing environment in which we live. It is important forengineers to have an “insatiable” curiosity reflected in constantly questioning and wonderingabout the world around them. Curiosity is evidenced through Demonstration and
