The paradigm shift from fossil fuels to “green” energy has alsobegun to have a major impact on college science and engineering curricula. While the nationbattles to loosen the grip of fossil fuels on the economic infrastructure, institutes of highereducation struggle to attract, retrain, and graduate innovative young minds for future careers inan increasingly demanding and complex energy industry.The difficulty in preparing a sufficient number of quality scientists and engineers reflects a long-standing national trend.

Because our freshmen students take a Python programmingcourse in their first semester, this allows them to participate and use their newfound knowledge tosupport the team. The Lego control brick and motors were the only forms of propulsion control &power allowed for their sea-going design, not a standard choice given that these modules are notwaterproof and seaworthy.This paper describes the competition in detail, including

In order to generate a comparablebenchmark, the instructor scored students using an interactive design challengewith the same metrics in mind. We hypothesize that students’ design challengescores would be similar to both external validators and teaching assistants scoreson the gamma prototype. This comparison can help determine if externalvalidators and teaching assistants can accurately assess student’s capabilities andskills in a project-based learning course. This would further

most: it is students’ long-term success. As Hopkins et al state, “success in some disciplines [engineering among them]depends on students possessing a cumulative body of knowledge and is thwarted by poorretention of foundational content.”1This cumulative body of knowledge is often described as knowledge structure and there is aproblem: the connections within many students’ mental knowledge structure are weak and,therefore, the structure itself is ineffective. As a structural engineer, the author became concernedwith the integrity of the structures being built in his students’ minds and realized a new designphilosophy was necessary for the courses he taught.The way students organize, or structure, what they learn is critically important.

For mathematics and engineering courses, students often prepare for exams byreworking homework problems or working review problems provided by instructors or found inold course files. The act of creating study aids or working problems can improve understandingof course material and the student’s ability to recall that information but it does not require thestudent to communicate this knowledge with others nor does it require or encourage creativity.Effective communication skills are critical for engineers and have long been a student

The students wehighlight below represent this range and some of the nuances we saw in the data. In thefollowing section, we suggest the implications that our observations can have for supportingteachers as they teach engineering, identify how to promote expert behaviors, and fosterengineering habits of mind. We also believe that our data emphasizes the need for a deeperevaluation of student’s approaches to solving authentic and realistic engineering problems.
