Laboratories are a particularly effectiveenvironment for students to learn structural dynamics concepts and methods of analysis [2]. Richlaboratory experiences are increasingly possible thanks to low-cost computing and controlplatforms like Raspberry-Pi and Arduino [3] but are even more accessible with phone-basedsensors and tailored apps [4,5].Most structural dynamics textbooks [6,7] follow a straightforward progression of topics,focusing on single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems first, then exploring various forcings,well-described continuous systems, and finally multi

IntroductionEffectively preparing computer science (CS) majors to become proficient practitioners in thefield is a challenge. CS is considered a field with one of the fastest growing career paths in theworld [28]. Yet, the supply of candidates needed to meet the demands of such growth isrelatively low.Research surrounding CS majors and how to appropriately prepare them for success has garneredmuch attention [2-3, 10, 14 18, 21, 29].

Our institution, a private multi-campus Mexican university, faces these challenges by migrating the traditional, lecture-basededucational model to a challenge-based learning methodology emphasizing competencydevelopment instead of content knowledge acquisition [1]. Under the new educational model, thecurricular structure of undergraduate programs consists of three phases: exploration, focus, andspecialization. While in the exploration phase (the first two or three semesters), academicprograms in the same area have a core curriculum. This means that the programs related to theSchool of Engineering and Sciences share the same curriculum for the first three semesters,allowing students to shift smoothly from one area to another.All the

Further, because engineering occurs within systems of social inequalities,politics, and social hierarchies, engineering students must have opportunities to consider thesesocial aspects of engineering [1]. Without exposure to unpacking inequalities, engineers mayperpetuate oppression, marginalization, and other forms of social inequalities [2].
