Some students always struggle withunderstanding the relationship between mathematical material and engineering material, whichthe chart clearly shows. For example, Fig. 2 illustrates that the Laplace transform in Chapter 3 isa crucial mathematical tool for analyzing and designing circuits, and students must try their bestto grasp the material.At the end of the semester, student performance is evaluated according to their final grades, asshown in Fig. 3. If a student receives an A or B, their performance is marked as high. A Cindicates middle performance, and a D is treated as low performance.

different types of operations, it gave experts the opportunityto supply a greater amount of input per expert engagement at their discretion. This resulted in amore detailed curriculum at the end of Experiment 2 (provided in Appendix D), compared withthe baseline curriculum provided by the course instructor (Appendix B) and the academiccommittee curriculum (Appendix C).Another important observation is that the curriculum structure will eventually plateau. Whenlooking at the number of new subtopics suggested in Experiment 2a there were 40 subtopics by15 experts, while the Experiment 2b added only 4 new subtopics by 7 new experts. This meansthat after Experiment 2a, the experts almost agreed on the needed subtopics. Similar resultswere related to

The assignment incorporated the following elements: a) Contextual Background: Students were provided with a historical overview of the U.S. interstate highway program, including its goals and the rationale for expansion into urban areas. b) Case Study Approach: The students were divided into four groups and each group researched on a specific highway project (e.g., I-10 in New Orleans, I-81 in Syracuse, I- 85 in Atlanta, or I-75 in Detroit) to investigate in-depth. The case study framework required students to examine: o The demographic, economic, and cultural
