The value of utilizing PBL in this project is two-fold in that(a) it is the vehicle by which participants will engage with real-world data sets to consolidatetheir classroom learning, and (b) it directly brings ‘super-skills’ development into the classroom,including through meaningful collaboration, engaging with multiple perspectives, projectmanagement skill development, connecting problem-solving to real-world contexts, engaging indevelopment of iterative thinking and design, development of empathy, practice with

However, thenearest colleges offering engineering are either a) at a distance that commuting is unreasonable,or b) in Milwaukee, a relatively large city. Both of these cases are intimidating for students, so anoption that offers an engineering degree that is local and is not in a large metropolitan area isattractive. Many existing physics students are local, so we expect a similar draw for engineering.There is considerable anecdotal evidence from Admissions that prospective students chooseother schools due to the lack of an engineering program. With recruitment from Physics faculty,some students interested in

Once this was done, the Elegoo 2650Board itself was wired up onto the Raspberry Pi.

They also found that the initial course grade had an impacton retention. The University in the study did not offer mathematics courses below precalculusfor the engineering program. Budny et al [14] found that GPA in the first semester was a strongpredictor of retention in the engineering curriculum. Students receiving an A in Precalculuswere found to be as likely to persist in engineering as students with a B in Calculus 1 or a C inCalculus 2 as an initial mathematics course. They recommend careful placement into a firstmath course so that students earn what they perceive to be an acceptable grade
