Inthe first NanoCORE project, we focused on introducing nanoscale science and engineering intothe undergraduate curriculum through short teaching units, which we refer to as “nanomodules,”within existing courses. Students also had opportunities for more in-depth nanotechnologytraining by enrolling in technical electives and participating in undergraduate research. Theprogram has made a noteworthy impact on our undergraduate educational content andexperience.2 With the NanoCORE II project, we have extended the program by expandingstudent-learning opportunities to include additional hands-on and laboratory activities.

, and active learning focused on physical understanding. However, the first step in theproblem-solving process, abstracting the problem, is very often missing. At a fundamental level,engineers follow a four-step design process: (1) Describing or abstracting the physical worldwith diagrams, words, numbers, and equations (2) Analyzing their model (3) Designingsomething based on that analysis, and (4) Constructing the designed system. Sophomoremechanics classes traditionally focus on step (2) largely bypassing step (1), instead presentingstudents with drawings, numbers, and text and teaching them to apply appropriate equations.The goals of this research are (1) to develop a sophomore-level mechanics class that flips thetraditional approach by
