This involved dissection of anexisting product, carrying out functional decomposition to understand the functional relationshipsbetween component parts, identifying gaps in the design, and bridging gaps in the designs by eitherimproving the design or coming up with a new design. Given that students carried out theseactivities in groups, they developed teamwork skills, improved their communication skills, andenhanced their critical thinking skills. A photovoice reflection survey and a set of open-endedquestions were used to evaluate the outcomes. Results showed that students were more motivatedto learn the
