For example, twoof the challenges identified as facing engineering educators were (1) underdevelopedadministrative and faculty skills and (2) misalignment between vision and rewards. These twochallenges were perceived as twice as important as the other challenges that were listed. Thethree most important KSAs identified to address these challenges were communication skills,knowledge of policies and procedures, pedagogy, technical aspects of

As the Game Developmentphase expanded, so did the User Testing phase. It was necessary to run the two phasesconcurrently.The team met prior to the first round of user testing and discussed what each stakeholder washoping to learn from the user testing sessions. This process was critical to cementing a sharedvision of the process for librarians, game developers, and the external evaluator. Each teammember had very different viewpoints of the process and upfront discussions about turnaroundtimes, expectations, and possible outcomes made the usability process run smoothly.

].This proliferation of computational capabilities has generated a growing need in manufacturingindustries to implement digital technologies to produce desirable products and bring them tomarket quickly. CAE allows engineers to use these computational resources to reduce or eveneliminate the need for expensive physical prototypes by digitally analyzing the products andsystems to be manufactured [1]. Although the computational resources are available, developingengineers who are capable of using these resources effectively remains a challenge. Universitieshave incorporated introductory courses in CAE at the undergraduate level; however, these areoften senior technical electives, and this limited exposure does not afford students theopportunity to

In the process of another experiment (uni-axialdeformation of non-prismatic bars), details are provided on how they may observe the simpleand yet effective means through which this experiment was created and utilize similarapproaches for designing their first experiment in the sequence of the four courses.
