Our surveyand analysis of this process depicts the Quality Manager position as one containing four broadstages.

It isimportant that engineering faculty of all disciplines continuously push the envelope and work toelevate student learning and comprehension so that they can apply the fundamental concepts inengineering design and decision making. The existence of various learning styles has also been well documented and multipleclassification systems have been developed. For example, the Felder-Silverman model7separates learning styles into four dichotomous categories: student learning can be 1) sensory orintuitive, 2) visual or verbal, 3) active or reflective, and 4) sequential or global

Notably, these student projects are conducted in anengineering education setting where programming fluency at the level required to create AI andML tools is not generally attained by the students using the tools. This is reflective of a wideadoption of AI and ML tools across various fields. The use of AI and ML resources arebecoming ubiquitous in many fields where programming fluency is not typically associated, suchas medicine [5,6] and business [7]. There is even some work exploring early adoption inprecollege education such as the

It is key that students can publicly publish the links to their e-Portfolio websites, so academic integrity was a key consideration when discussing curriculuminclusion in the portfolios.

Intuitiondevelops in engineering learners and is often reflected in the speed, automaticity, andengagement of information when problem-solving. Humans have a visual intuition for materialsand structures we interact with on day-to-day basis and an intuition for shapes and materials thathelps to negate flawed designs[2].

A common practice of growing professional skill sets isto obtain internship opportunities as the industry is generally looking for applicants who are atintermediate or advanced levels. However, the first-year students generally would have few solidtechnical skills. Therefore, the research question is how to help first-year students gain essentialskills before they apply for internships and become future workforce [1, 2].

As people experience the world and reflect on those experiences, they constructtheir own representations
