clippers. These handouts areincluded in the appendix. The “Power Lever” clippers were also available for the students toexperiment with. Briefly, the instructions were to analyze the forces in the members of clippers todetermine if the advertising claim that the “Power Lever” clippers cut two times more easily thanthe standard was true, identify at least three stakeholders that have an interest in these clippers,find additional products that might preform the same function as the clippers, list as manyfeatures of these products that the stakeholders might value as possible. Next, groups usedmarkers and easel sized post-it notes to create concept maps depicting the value of the clippers.In their concept maps, students connected the

assessment tool allows for the breadth ofdiffering ideals of cross-disciplinary engineers to be measured on an equitable playing field. Aflexible measurement tool such as concept mapping allows students to explore ideas creatively,while still allowing instructors to understand thought processes and knowledge development.When connecting EM to international experiences, curiosity is developed through discussionswith people from different cultures. Students have the opportunity to spark lifelong curiositywhile developing an appreciation of differences with the realization that diverse perspectiveslead to innovative solutions. Connection is created when students integrate information frommultiple sources, domestic and international, to design a solution

designed the workshop to follow the steps associated with a typical research project. In each section,we challenge participants to think about research as a way to enhance student mindset. We developedshort presentations that were then followed by active learning worksheets in a printed field guide. Most ofthe active learning worksheets were designed to be easily adapted for use with research students backhome.Module 1. Connecting Research to Your Career. In this module we encourage participants to thinkabout how they might connect research to other parts of their roles. In the activity, we ask participants tobuild a concept map that connects their research to service, classes, and other aspects of their work. Anexample of this type of concept map

projects. The end of both design projects reserved one day to focus on EMand asked them to reflect on questions they had about engineering, to create a concept map as agroup about EM, and to identify the value they had created for stakeholders in their projects. In2021-2022, this was the first introduction to EM for both projects and was designed as areflection. In 2022-2023, it was the first introduction to EM for the robot project, but theresearch-based project had heavily focused on EM and value creation throughout the semester.Student workload across the design projects was reduced in 2022-2023 compared to the yearprior. For example, students were given additional time to brainstorm their designs and createthem, reducing the overall number of
