Since completingthe project in 2019, EIA has developed short online asynchronous courses that more formallyteach students the design and construction process, rather than relying on an upper-class studentto pass along the knowledge. These courses formally teach the technical skills required tosuccessfully complete a

An example is theKEEN organization [11] that emphasizes entrepreneurship to prepare engineers for a neoliberalcapitalist society where the founding belief is that we will continue to technically innovate ourway out of dilemmas. These perspectives assume the purpose of education is to prepare astudent to contribute to society through their career and societal and justice issues are bestaddressed by creating a technological “rising tide that lifts all boats”.

Studentsgenerally report positive experiences with project-based learning approaches.Managing and teaching introduction to engineering courses poses challenges that can include theacquisition of supplies and equipment required for design projects, the need to provide additionaltraining to faculty, and a high turnover rate of faculty teaching these courses [31], [21]. There isa need for introductory course models that meet disciplinary needs but that do not requiresignificant equipment and/or supplies and that can be readily adopted by new instructors.As early as 1998, Nair [32
