From the 42 studentinterviews, three major themes emerged around EWB participation: A commitment to “sociallyengaged engineering,” where their technical skills could contribute to the betterment of society;second, the opportunity to employ classroom learning in real-world applications; and third, analignment with their future goals in using an engineering degree, for example, in relation tointernational development or public health.

to studies, CS students generally show a lack of interest in these courses because theirpreference is for programming and software-oriented courses [18]. It is also due to the enormousgap caused by the increasing number of abstraction layers interposed between real hardware andend-user-oriented applications. As a result, motivating students and generating interest inhardware courses has always been a challenge for course instructors [19]. It has beenscientifically proven that students often do less than what teachers expect in computer architecturecourses [20].Traditional hands-on laboratories might provide an opportunity for students to practice theseskills through conducting experiments and data analysis.

One model of diffusionpresented to the students before the lab is Fick's second law, ∇ ⋅ (D∇C) = ∂C/∂t, Equation 1where C is the concentration of a substance and D is the diffusion constant for that substance.Potential student research topics included tests of the model: is D independent of C?

The engineer doing this taskhas a pretty good idea of how the part should look and function before beginning the process.Students, on the other hand, usually have no real background on a part that they are asked tomodel.

In a real-world situation, the water would be falling for many feet through thegutter before landing onto the turbine, meaning that there would likely be more kinetic energy atthe time of contact with the turbine, also resulting in more energy generation than measured in ourtesting.Relevance to Engineering EducationOur project can be widely applied in engineering education because
