(ii) Re-defining first year courses:The College recognized the importance of active learning pedagogy in promoting studentengagement and success. Through assessments, it became evident that modifications wereneeded in the first-year curriculum as indicated by student survey and focus group responses. Inresponse, the College embarked on a collaborative effort involving all faculty members toredesign the curriculum and create new course offerings that would better align with activelearning principles.The faculty members worked collectively to develop new general engineering courses thatfocused on real-life problem-solving activities

has been anincreasing number of studies on interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary, and cross-disciplinaryeducational approaches.However, some university programs reserve these types of collaborative approaches for seniorcapstone projects. This approach is reasonable since studies suggest that positivemultidisciplinary team outcomes are more likely when each individual team member has priorexperience demonstrating interdisciplinary thinking and working in teams with interdisciplinarygoals [2]. But what if a student is immersed in a teaching environment that is centered aroundanother closely related major during their first year in an engineering program? Would thisimmersive approach allow students to develop a better appreciation and

entails, arguably one reason that first-year college engineeringstudents commonly cite math as a key area of struggle. Much like Wendy’s classic “Where’s thebeef?” catchphrase in 1984 (which implored potential customers to reconsider the quantity ofbeef in other restaurants’ burgers), educators might ask a similar question today about thequantity of math in K-12 engineering activities.Initial discussions for this study began when faculty and undergraduates from Ohio NorthernUniversity’s Math Education and Engineering Education programs collaborated on classroomactivities intended to embed math content within hands-on engineering.
