Students can quickly learn how to analyze, simulate, and acquire parts for their projects by using the engineering primers. Finally, students can select solution principles and parts from the design catalogs, using available parts rather than designing building new ones.The Design Learning Simulator can be accessed on the World Wide Web. Its URL is"http://www.srl.gatech.edu/DLS/". By using the WWW as our platform fordevelopment, we ensure cross-platform compatibility and future accessibility, allow easymodification and addition, and enable distance learning and use in design in industry.2.1 Focus: Design

Such methods are changing to space, in the right place and shapethat controls future adaptability. Case studies for “stretching” ships can come from projects likethe destroyer conversions of the 1960’s or the Spruance program that evolved into two otherclasses of major combatants.The ship design and acquisition strategies hopefully have the dual purposes of retaining controlby ship operators over the determination of requirements and basic design features, while tryingto reduce risk. The method followed, affects ship cost, and program schedule, the process can bebroken down into four phases shown in Table 2. It is during

challenges, this study amplifies the clarioncall for fostering participation and inclusivity in engineering doctoral programs.IntroductionPromoting diversity within the engineering workforce is a critical national priority, underscoringthe need for broader participation and the cultivation of inclusivity [1]. The infusion of diversityinto the field of civil engineering in the United States yields numerous advantages, including amultifaceted project perspective, heightened project value, the enrichment of knowledge, talent,and ideas, access to expansive networks, and the production of superior final products necessaryfor global competitiveness in infrastructure [2]. Consequently, achieving this imperative requiresa comprehensive examination of the

Therefore, effortsshould be made to address the unique hurdles that female Hispanics encounter in STEM [16] toreduce the gender gap.In past years, research projects have highlighted the benefits of combining traditional teachingmethods with computer technology in education [17]. An example of this technology isAugmented Reality (AR). AR allows the user to see and interact with computer-generatedinformation overlayed in the real world. AR has been recognized as a practical andsupplementary teaching tool that can greatly improve traditional teaching methods [10]. AR canbe used as an interactive tool that combines the real world with the digital world to createflexible learning and enrich

with problems that necessitated the synthesis of multiple strategies. We planto incorporate additional course components, such as applied problems or projects, alongsideassessments of individual learning targets for future iterations of the course.Moreover, we found that the current structure of the course may inadvertently lead to a lack ofchallenge for high-performing students. By expanding the scope of course components to includemore diverse and challenging tasks and assessments, we are hoping to make sure that allstudents, regardless of their level of mastery, are sufficiently engaged and challenged throughoutthe course.Limitations and future workThe Calculus I course in this study was taught by three different instructors.

types of workspaces available may vary between cohorts.Differences in workspace layouts can affect their suitability for group work and collaborativeprojects. An enjoyable place to work with others may encourage students to spend more timeworking together on a project compared to students with less enjoyable workspaces that simplywant to ‘get it done’ so they can go elsewhere. It is important for instructors to be aware of howthis could influence student interaction and collaboration. In courses featuring laboratorycomponents, discrepancies in equipment availability and functionality can lead to differentlearning outcomes and/or inequitable hands-on experiences. Equity across cohorts should be keptin mind when designing laboratory activities

preparation,study habits, accountability, and realization of improvement opportunities. This viewpoint washeld by two-thirds (67%) of the respondents throughout the study (n=253) and is a key outcomeof this research. To our satisfaction, there was a shift in perspective during the final semester,compared to the previous two semesters of the project. Specifically, in the final semester, 52%of the respondents indicated they “enjoyed or liked” the weekly questions, compared to just 13%during the previous two semesters. The difference in these proportions was significant based ona z-test of proportions (p ~ 0.000) (Agresti & Finlay, 1997). Table 7: Week 15 Content Analysis of Reflections Week 15 (E): What are your

In fact, the benefit of making connections between course content and real-worldapplications was echoed by other participants as well, such as in the following excerpt:“And then the whole class was more or less graded on the big project...And actually thinkingthrough a somewhat real-world example, even though it's, it probably wasn't a super greatsolution that many people came up with.

Furthermore, the substantial impact of analytical effort on analytical exam performancehighlights the significance of targeted interventions aimed at enhancing analytical skills amongengineering students. Educators could implement tailored instructional approaches, such asproblem-based learning, case studies, and hands-on projects, to develop students' analyticalabilities and improve their performance in analytical tasks. Additionally, the findings underscore the value of perceived effort as a predictor ofacademic success in engineering education. By acknowledging and measuring students'perceived effort levels, educators can gain insights into individual learning
