Introduction Engineering students benefit from working on authentic design challenges that areconnected to real users and real context over “toy problems”. However, finding subject-matterappropriate engineering projects in addition to securing access to real users for design projectscan be immensely challenging and time-consuming for instructors, especially at scale. Thisinnovation relies on students to bring context into the classroom, where the instructor canconnect it to the curriculum.

Moreadvanced and discipline specific critical thinking is characteristic of the upper level courses andcapstone projects. General critical thinking, focused on ensuring students are able to clearlydefine critical thinking, recognize critical thinking, and applying critical thinking to simpler andwell defined problems is the focus in lower level courses. While there are specific coursestargeted for critical thinking instruction and assessment, it is the intention that most coursesbecome more intentional in their treatment of critical thinking

There was an elective‘Engineering Project,’ but this was only readily accessible to students entering with Advance Placement (AP)credits.
