in Stockholm, Sweden in 1988 and 1994 respectively. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2025 Taco Holder Laboratory ProjectAbstractIn this project, undergraduate mechanical engineering students designed and executed alaboratory exercise to fabricate a taco holder using 22 ga. (0.031 in.) stainless steel sheet metal.The taco holder, measuring 10 in. by 4 in., features three 60-degree bends, each spaced 2.5inches apart. The primary objective was to develop a repeatable laboratory procedure thatintroduces students to the principles of sheet metal bending, including force measurement,springback compensation, and the influence of tool geometry on final part accuracy.

BYOE: A Multidisciplinary DIY Speaker Design ProjectIntroductionProject-Based Learning (PBL) is a key instructional method that engages students by havingthem tackle real-world problems through collaborative projects [1]. In engineering education,PBL not only integrates theoretical knowledge with practical application but also fosters criticalskills such as collaboration, communication, and innovation. Research indicates that PBL is aneffective pedagogical approach in engineering education [2] and is an ideal pedagogy to employat the first-year, general engineering level, to develop these essential skills early on.In the first year at the University of Melbourne (Australia), students interested in engineeringtake foundational science courses

instructions within a manual. In doing so,students will have to demonstrate a higher level of comprehension. Project based learning hasbeen proven by Fiteriani [4] to increase metacognitive thinking in students and can also lead tobetter comprehension of studied material than a control group. Metacognition is defined asinternal cognitive monitoring by Flavell [5] or simply thinking about internal thoughts. This self-reflective cognition can be greater achieved in a project setting where students are givenguidance and direction, but not necessarily the exact steps to completion. The metacognitiveapproach also applies to equipment, testing procedures, and technology used by the students inthe laboratory project.The purpose of this project is to aid

Recentinnovations in immersive technologies, particularly 360-degree video, offer a promising solutionby providing realistic yet controlled training environments [3].In this paper, we propose that 360-degree video can serve as a stepping stone toward fullyimmersive Virtual Reality (VR) training modules, reducing the barrier to adoption fororganizations with limited budgets, technical expertise, or aircraft availability.This study has two primary aims. The first aim is to document a collaborative autoethnographycapturing our interdisciplinary project team’s personal experiences and reflections.

While we were not the first tosee the benefits of this approach (see, for example, [2]), we quickly appreciated students'enhanced interest and sense of mastery of the material, as evidenced by the increased use ofelectronics and sensors in their senior capstone design projects. Two recent studiesdemonstrating the effectiveness of “at-home” kits are given by [3] and [4], the latter of whichstudied a cohort of 290

GraduateTeaching Assistants (TAs) and the laboratory manager review the proposals and either approve themor require further development. Once their proposal is approved, students use the remaining weeksto complete their study and write a full technical report, which they submit using an assignedpseudonym. The project finishes with each student conducting a single-blind Peer Review of astudent’s work from another lab section. Grading is based on the TA’s assessment of the report andthe Peer Evaluation.Pre- and post-surveys of the students measure their self-efficacy, among other aspects of theirexperience with the course, to evaluate the effectiveness of this
