important for learning: clear goals, lessons that can be practiced until mastered,monitoring learner progress and adjusting instruction to learner level of mastery, closing the gapbetween what is learned and its use, motivation that encourages time on task, personalization oflearning, and infinite patience. These are incorporated into an ongoing research project alongwith other research on computer based learning and what has and has not worked, including itsuse in student design projects [10-20].The research project uses a video game, PlanetK (see figure 1), as a tool to improve studentlearning of digital systems concepts which is uniquely tailored to the nature of today’s student,who has perhaps been affiliated with video games since childhood

How well does a course help engineers listen contextually to diverse users and actors so the ways in which the social context shapes (and is shaped by) the technical becomes visible? How effectively does the course help engineers and other stakeholders listening to discover more about criteria 2-6 below? 2. How thoroughly does the course help engineers and other stakeholders identify structural conditions so legal, historical, political, economic, and other social structures that serve as real or potential project-related barriers and/or opportunities to users, key actors, or engineers become visible and are openly acknowledged in the

attitudes in students are developed using structuredlectures, laboratory session, and projects. For most of the students, it is very difficult to see theconnection between topics covered in the lectures or in the course. Thus, there is an urgent needfor focusing student attention towards the fundamental or core ideas related to the topic underdiscussion as take away points. We implement a teaching approach with “thought bubbles”,commonly used in arts and cartoons, to present core ideas to students as discussion questions.“Thought bubbles” (aka clouds) are used to pose as introductory questions for initiatinglecture/discussion and as concluding thoughts. This approach helps student to be attentive and tograsp what will be covered during the session

The development of these capabilities is hampered in schools by thedominance of exam performance. Lee and Todd argue that in the current climate of academicperformance does not always include innovation and creativity2. Assessment is said to bedriving the methodology of teaching4. In schools dominated by exam performance, howstudent’s creative problem solving abilities are being nurtured and developed is questionable.It has been highlighted that design is being taught through design projects assessmentcriteria2.

Design worksheets were then graded using arubric created specifically for the engineering process stated. According to Sale11, rubrics“provide a guiding frame for focusing attention on the key elements/constructs (performancecriteria) of the assessment area and summary descriptors of a range of performances”.

While writing in engineering practice varies in scope frominformal emails and memos to large scope reports and proposals, writing in engineering coursesis often limited to formal laboratory or project reports, if it is included at all. This often causes adisconnect, leaving engineering graduates lacking in writing knowledge and skills, including asrelated to
