Moreover, through the desktop prototyping experiences, studentswill be able to explore multiple alternative conceptual designs and learn through iterative prob-lem solving and design. As a result of this enhanced ability to quickly and efficiently implement Page 24.658.2ideas into physical models, we believe students will be encouraged to creatively approach engi-neering product design.

Students also tend toview programming as an isolated component of engineering. They should understand instead thatprogramming is yet another tool to verify results and to solve more complex problems, reducingrisks of algebraic errors.3Design/MethodThree faculty members linked their classes to create a STEM (science, technology, engineering,and mathematics) small-learning-community (SLC).
