Engineering 100 is a required coursefor all first year students and comprises a team project coupled with an introduction to technicalcommunication. The course also includes threads of environmental sustainability, ethics and therole of the engineer in society. As a required course, Engineering 100 has suffered from lowteaching evaluations, despite the efforts of many faculty to actively engage students in thelearning process. Thus, one of the goals of this project
