Society for Engineering Education, 2024 Developing a Learning Innovation for an Undergraduate Mechanical Engineering Course through Faculty, Engineer, and Student CollaborationAbstractEngineering education research is often motivated by closing the gap in students’ preparednessfor the engineering industry. One way to achieve this is by developing authentic learningcontexts, activities, and problems that are representative of the engineering workplace. Thisapproach is not novel in engineering education research or the engineering curriculum; however,only a limited number of studies have closely and collaboratively worked with students, faculty,and engineers to develop learning innovations (LI).
