Since most engineering curricula in the first 2 years are not necessarilyengineering or design based (ABET curriculum requirements call for one year combination ofbasic math and sciences plus a general education component), freshmen cornerstone classes suchas ours are a way to weave the larger story of being an engineer into the first year studentexperience and perhaps even help with learning gains (and motivation) in those courses.Teaching FrameworksA number of teaching frameworks for engineering courses have been described elsewhere16 andinclude: 1) Project-Based Learning (PBL)- projects
