We discuss our initial findings from thiswork-in-progress and share our ideas for future implementations.Related workWe have built our design framework for this project off of two key past observations. The firstobservation being that 3D modeling has a positive impact on enhancing spatial skills. Second,that 3D modeling coupled with AR leads to enhanced spatial understanding of virtual objects.3D Modeling helps enhance spatial skillsFactors like age and experience matter in the improvement of spatial skills but it has been foundin prior research that this skill can be enhanced with the help of 3D modeling.

importance ofproviding undergraduate students open-ended, loosely defined projects, and allowing projectteams to assume responsibility for design and innovation.2. INTRODUCTIONEngineers, clinicians and patients often struggle to find balance between innovative technologyand the human side of medical care. Graduate level educational programs dedicated to teachingbiomedical innovation have seen significant growth in the last decade [1-7]. In addition, the fieldof biomedical engineering has seen a dramatic escalation in activity over the past 20 yearsleading to innovative medical devices and procedures. Due to the multidisciplinary characteristicof the field, biomedical engineering has a diverse research impact, often serving as a bridgebuilder between

In the first iteration ofthe present work, technical aspects of the Capstone Design projects formed the basis for groupproblems that were assigned in two courses: Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer. In the seconditeration, the Capstone Design students gave a series of presentations to a first-year, introductorychemical and biological engineering course. Presentations focused on both the technicalcomponents of their design and safety considerations and societal impacts pertaining to theirprocess design. At

However, it is not easy for students to build upentrepreneurial skills within one course or a couple of courses in an already crowded engineeringprogram. The College of Engineering (CoE) at Colorado Technical University (CTU) decided toembed entrepreneurial skills in engineering learning activities for a number of coursesthroughout the program curriculum, requiring an efficient and integrated process. Byincorporating EML in different course sequences such as circuits, electronic design, andcommunication sequences, students will have the opportunity to

looking at student support through this lens is that the MCCS provides a way todeconstruct student support and identify the underlying experiences. This multipronged approachis advantageous because, while specific interventions may not be transferable, students’experiences can transcend contexts within and across institutions. For example, instead ofinvestigating the impact of peer mentoring programs—which are not often identical—this lensallows us to investigate the impact of the overall perception of interactions that students havewith other students outside of the classroom.Research Design& RationaleThe development of the survey instrument is being carried out following best practices asdefined by DeVellis [2] and Gall, Gall & Borg [3

This suggests that prior performance (e.g., grades) and not just experience may be amongthe best predictors available. Finally, the data have confirmed that student performance on amidterm exam is most significantly impacted by whether students attend classes regularly andfor the full duration of the class, and whether they have access to the book—although it does notseem to matter much if that access is to a digital copy or to a printed copy.In conclusion, it is clear that more study is required to elucidate
