The recent pandemic forced most faculty to move from face-to-face to remote instruction, sometimes necessitating a redesign of content and assessment, as well as the mode of instruction. This opinion piece presents the Content-Assessment-Pedagogy (CAP) triangle, a course design framework adapted from backward design, that parallels the engineering…

Despite an increased focused on developing and understanding engineering undergraduates' entrepreneurial mindsets, best practices related to assessing this mindset remain nascent. In an attempt to evaluate concept mapping as a potential assessment tool for entrepreneurial mindset and identify the knowledge, skills, and attitudes (KSAs) first-year…

Engineers often need to predict how a part, mechanism or machine will perform in service, and this insight is typically achieved thorough computer simulations. Therefore, instruction in the creation and application of simulation models is essential for aspiring engineers. The purpose of this project was to develop a unified approach to teaching…
