navigation-based class project focused on principles of haptics and promotinginclusive design thinking. With that in mind, a number of design requirements had to be met forthe device. First, the design needed an easily changed component system for rapid adjustments,providing each student team with the ability to modify the HapConnect in their own fashion.With the condensed timeframe for the learning module, simple motor changes were desiredinstead of in-depth code adjustments to reflect physical changes to the device. The deviceadditionally needed to take up minimal arm space, conform tightly to the skin, and adjust forvariability in arm size in order to allow for direct skin contact of the vibration motors. Finally,remote communication between the

Product-based notebooks focus on reflection anddocumentation after a project is complete, with an emphasis on skill-based competency.Normally, instructors are the audience of a product-based notebook, as the notebook is oftenused for student evaluation. A process-based notebook emphasizes intra-project reflection,with space for initial ideas, brainstorming, and design justifications.

, as we increase engineering students’ exposure to entrepreneurship, we are alsoincreasing their exposure to failure very early in their careers. With this exposure, it is unknownwhether sufficient preparation and education around project/venture failure is occurring toproperly equip entrepreneurially minded engineering students to learn and grow fromentrepreneurial failure. In fact, previous work has shown that little is done to help studentsprepare for and respond to entrepreneurial failure beyond some isolated and relatively cursoryclassroom activities [9]. It’s also not clear that these relatively young entrepreneurs define andperceive failure in the same context as is traditionally described in entrepreneurial literature.The purpose of

Several pro-Makerspace actors purport that having experiences in such open-ended project-based settings canencourage engagement with engineering. However, as we know from prior work in the area,simply providing access to technology-rich spaces does not allow underserved youth to feelownership and belonging in both makerspaces and engineering environments. Additionally,formal and informal engineering education experiences do not center on preventing harm tocommunities and the environment in engineering work. Not only do future generations ofengineers need to reduce the harm caused by engineering and technology proactively, but harmreduction

To foster the development of these skills, design projects have been incorporatedinto the first year of many engineering programs in addition to capstone senior designprojects [1], [3].While there have been significant endeavors to incorporate design into engineering programs,an issue remains with the assessment of design tasks and projects. These forms of activitieshave traditionally been assessed through portfolios, rubrics, and criterion grading tools [4]–[7], which have some limitations when assessing open-ended design projects. Some of theselimitations include excessive time investment in grading, timeliness of feedback, validityissues, and low levels of reliability [8
