Balsa wood bridge competitions, for example, have beenaround for decades and are the “go to” engineering outreach activity, particularly for civilengineering programs, used to introduce students to engineering. They are fairly simple to runand can easily reach over 100 students. However, balsa wood bridge competitions are now facedwith the ever-growing popularity of other competitions related to robotics and rockets, and mostrecently drones. Competing with more flashy activities can make it difficult to attractparticipants, and even volunteers, especially if competition dates overlap. The traditional balsawood bridge competition simply requires students to build a bridge and

This does notguarantee that students will become involved in community service. The impetus behind addingcommunity service to CER-021 Elementary Surveying class was to give students a chance towork on a real job and give back to the community. By finding surveying jobs needed by non-profit groups and local governments an element of community service was added into thecourse.

processingis becoming an integral part of science and engineering for this very reason: visualizationaids immensely in the understanding of large data sets. Furthermore, an intuitiveunderstanding of abstract systems-related topics such as convolution and Fouriertransform theory can be acquired when these algorithms are applied to images. Often,these concepts are taught to electrical engineering students in a signals and systems coursewhich deals exclusively with 1-D signals. However, the data smoothing effect of a lowpassfilter can be better visualized by comparing an input image to the corresponding blurryfiltered image. Similarly, seeing the edges detected by a 2-D highpass filter applied to animage is a far more dramatic visual effect than that

OnceMATLAB was chosen as the computing environment, the design of the computing projects (CPs) for eachcourse began.Our first challenge was the fact that our students had little previous exposure to computing and had verylittle background in numerical methods.
