engineering work. However, educators disagreeabout how best to achieve this goal. Some institutions teach courses in research skills, either aspart of coursework [4], research programs [5], or teaching programs [6]. Others expect studentsto acquire research skills through authentic research experience (for undergraduates, see [7], ch.4; for graduate students, see [8]) or teaching experience (see [9]; [10]). Most studies inengineering education focus on undergraduates’ learning, including the importance of traininggraduate students as research mentors in order to improve the undergraduate mentees’ learning(e.g., [11]). There are a few studies of how students learn social and technical knowledge bybeing socialized as members of research communities

Active learning encompasses a wide variety ofstrategies including problem-solving exercises, informal small groups, cooperative work, simu-lations, case studies, role playing, and journal writing [13]. With active learning, “students aremore likely to internalize, understand, and remember material learned through active engage-ment in the learning process” [14, p.3]. Interactive dynamics is one of several instances of appli-cations of active learning techniques in engineering [15, 16].1.3 Interactive DynamicsAt Penn State, dynamics has always traditionally been taught in “chalk and talk” mode, wheremode, an instructor presents three, 50-minute lectures per week.
