Therefore, itis of major interest to understand the effectiveness of the interaction among the students workingwith international teams during the collaborative design and its impact in the final solution.Consequently, this work presents an assessment instrument that has been developed to evaluatethe interaction among the students participating in a multinational collaborative design based onthe parameters of frequency of communication, and quantity and quality of the informationshared. The aim of this instrument is to determine the value of technical and social interaction inthe flow of the collaboration, and

Both internal and industry-defined projects have their pros andcons. For example, industry projects are problems which help students know and buildrelationships with industry. On the other hand, internal projects can be good research projectswhich help students gain extensive technical learning. This paper provides a general comparisonbetween these two types of projects. Additionally, the different perspectives of the students,graduates, and faculty of Iron Range Engineering on these two types of design projects arediscussed.

by instructors to meet their preferredobjectives. Therefore, while they may be prerequisites to second-year courses, first-yearengineering programs are not necessarily integrated into an engineering curriculum. Further,since they are often designed with little consideration for best practices in introductory coursedesign, overall outcomes and content vary widely. This leads to the issue of course developers“reinventing the wheel,” considering successful models are not adequately disseminated. Theproblem is further exacerbated by a lack of definition for first year models. Despite a developerknowing what they want in a course, he or she may not be able to find a course with similaroutcomes with nothing more than "first year engineering" as a

In the final design project, students are given a list of design criteria anda budget. Students work in groups of five or six to generate ideas, which must conform to thedesign criteria and budget. Upon completion of the final project, students submit reports thatinclude engineering drawings, assembly instructions, calculations, project management chartsand tables. A full-day, on-campus design competition is organised for students to present theirdesigns in front of their fellow students and judging panels, which consist of faculty members,engineers from industry, senior and/or graduate students.
