The school created adynamic model for introducing projects that allow students to learn about different types ofSTEM-related fields, such as manufacturing, architecture, construction, engineering, science,technology, and more. The competency-based model provides an opportunity for educators tointroduce projects to students at an early stage in their careers in an effort to help them develop apassion for a particular field. These projects can also help students make early choices anddecisions about their future career aspirations. The research shows that the competency-basedmodel supports students in learning and developing valuable skills such as collaboration, creativethinking and critical analysis, problem solving

In course evaluations, students consistently rate these projects as the most challengingand difficult to grasp, citing the inefficacy of the traditional (lecture-only) course in mergingprogramming with biomechanics content. Moving material online is an intuitive solution to thiscomputation-based instructional challenge.

That is, for each project one team played the role of architects, whileother teams played the roles of clients and developers. Student teams rotated roles on differentprojects throughout the term. A further variation in cooperative learning is that, to succeed oneach project, three different teams also had to cooperate.These innovations kept the benefits of cooperative learning while also exposing the students to 3different perspectives as they progressed through their projects.
