The survey was designed with two main intentions: a) monitoring the usage of thenanoHUB.org and b) assessing instructors’ incorporation of the tool(s) as part of their course.The students were asked to participate in a voluntary Likert-scale survey focused on: - How students perceive simulation tools as useful for their learning, - How students thought the simulation tools were relevant to their areas of interest

For the second group of outcomes, the approach we adopted was to introduce a carefully de-signed set of activities in our capstone design course(s) and in the required course on social andethical issues in computing. These activities were directly related to the various items of knowl-edge and skills in the various outcomes of this group. These activities are assessed by a carefullydesigned set of rubrics. These activities and assessments are somewhat similar to approachesadopted by many other engineering programs (see, for example, 14,20 ). Because of this, we will notconsider these outcomes further in this

All four majors at this institution require students totake a first-year projects course; across the many sections of the course, some of these projectsmay be service-learning (S-L), others are community contextualized, and some are purelytechnical exercises (like a Rube Goldberg machine).26 Additional introductory courses to themajor required in the first semester for architectural, civil, and environmental engineeringstudents contain an emphasis

It takes time to distribute materials at the beginning ofeach class and then clean up materials at the end of the bell. Longer bell schedules or blockschedules are generally preferable for project-based work. For some teachers, the barrier of time seems insurmountable. Others embrace this new wayof teaching, even after their time in the program comes to an end and they are no longer requiredto teach using challenge-based learning and engineering design. What makes the difference? Two factors emerge as teachers weigh the cost-benefit analysis to this new way of teaching.First, the selection of academic standard(s) to be addressed by the units, as well as

In the future, we will use this instrument tomeasure how students’ sociotechnical thinking changes from before to after the in-classintervention(s). A primary contribution of the current paper is understanding what engineeringstudents know intuitively or based on prior experiences about sociotechnical thinking. That is,this survey data provides a snapshot of students’ prior knowledge and assumptions onsociotechnical thinking and associated engineering habits of mind. Additionally, the inclusion oftwo universities and courses at multiple education levels supports a
