The new, team-based, project-oriented, semester-long course, which was taught for the first time in Fall 2022, consisted of twobasic parts. In the first part, the students assembled a common electromechanical platform—anopen-source replica of the Mars Perseverance rover—to enhance their build and troubleshootingskills. Once the rover was complete and operational, the second part of the course required thateach team propose, design, construct, and test an electromechanical modification to the baserover.

an Introduction to Design course. These modules enabled students to experience and practice effective teaming skills through role- playing. The modules focused on how to act and how to respond to promote psychological safety on design projects. Each module was tailored to a different phase of the design process. The themes of the three modules are (1) treating every idea as having potential to contribute to a positive outcome, (2) questioning an idea to obtain valuable insight, and (3) applying the brake to improve a decision. To explore the impact of the modules, we deployed a post-course survey to measure students’ perceptions of psychological safety on their project teams. Compared to control sections of freshman design in

Since 1990, the percentage of female computing professionals dropped from 35% to about24% today, and if that trend continues, the share of women in the nation’s computing workforcewill decline to 22% by 2025 according to Girls Who Code [4].

First, there is a critical need to develop professional skills,including leadership, communication and teamwork, and capabilities for “real-world”engineering design and operations, along with learning the core math, science, and technicalaspects of engineering [1], [2]. Interviews and surveys of early-career engineers revealed notonly technical skills were needed but also skills for industry, like complex project managementand soft skills, that newcomers had to

Students are presented open-ended design challenges and given theopportunity to generate ideas, make decisions, and present their solutions. However, a traditionalapproach to this assessment in design, with fairly independent (or group) work and thenpresentations at the end of the project, limits student learning because learning is seen to stopwhen the assignment is submitted for evaluation. In this paradigm, evaluation is solely theresponsibility of
