Project-based learning in which students are given a specificaudience to understand and design for is one way in which students learn to create value withtheir technical skills. Projects with simulated or real-world applications also provide students theopportunity to practice situational curiosity [5].Effective science communication is particularly necessary in the process of commercializingtechnology. When engineers create goods and services that are to have a societal impact oraddress a need, it is crucial for their success that the value of these

This interdisciplinary experience also exposed studentsto research on topics outside of their fields and opened new avenues for future research. Similarto findings reported by Shamir et al., trainees commented that problem-solving skills wereboosted by working on interdisciplinary challenges [5]. One student said, “It's a greatopportunity to apply the knowledge from different disciplines into the solutions of a singleproblem.” Finally, the participants shared that engaging in interdisciplinary discussions withpeople from different fields

This paper will describe the process of redesigning a junior-level mechanical engineering laboratory on measurements and instrumentation at Georgia Tech.Such classes are fairly standard in ME curricula, and they are often structured so that a newmeasurement technique, or new sensor/actuator is introduced in every lab. Such courses have theadvantage of introducing students to a wide variety of instruments and measurement techniques,but they do this at the risk of losing conceptual connections between the weekly projects.

In hindsight, I am thankful to theinitial handful of students who brought up the idea. There is something to be said about being open to feedback as aninstructor and students being ready to provide feedback and ideas on their learning journey. The process proved morerewarding than I had originally expected because both student engagement and student performance improved as a resultof the change. This further solidified the need for reporting on the results of this change to the data structures course. Theexperience report and results are presented in this paper. II. BACKGROUND

In the traditional classroommodality, faculty lectures on a particular topic of the day according to the syllabus while studentslisten and take notes. Depending on the content, the faculty assigns homework and/or quizzes toensure students are studying and learning the concepts covered. However, multiple studies [3-5]have shown that this passive learning of STEM courses may be ineffective and may foster lowengagement. The instructor needs to introduce new concepts, motivate the students on the needto cover that concept, perhaps derive the

For example, we caution against: ● Presenters who lack respect for high school educators or diversity issues, or who cannot convey ideas in a clear and engaging manner. ● Repetition of the same information in more than one session. ● CS1 content that does not primarily focus on how to more effectively teach diverse students. ● Sessions devoted to activities outside mainstream curriculum and pedagogy, e.g., camps or after school programs.This list, as all of our training material, is informed by personal experience running workshops aswell as the findings of
