) are previously developed ground rules systemsrepeatable in lower-division undergraduate engineering courses that perform group work? 2)does student team cohesion improve when team-specific ground rules are established prior toperforming group projects? The system was applied to a large undergraduate group engineeringproject that focused on a design-build-test application of bioengineering principles usingcomputer-aided-design. The sophomore level biomedical engineering course provided 21 teamsof 5-6 students with a student contract that established which particular ground rules areacceptable given the team’s culture. Students were encouraged to use their ground rules and teamcontract throughout the course’s group project to improve team

regular NAU graduate programs in EE or CS. For the remainder ofthe students, some of them were accepted to graduated programs from other U.S. universities, orthey decided to return to China to pursue career or graduate school there. In addition to highGPA, these students were evaluated highly among NAU faculties, including those courseinstructors and Capstone project mentors. In particular, a group of the 3+1 students developed aninstrumented bike and cell phone applet for their Capstone project. This work was thensubmitted as a conference paper and received the Best Student Paper Award in the smart sensorsection at the 2018 International Symposium in Sensing and Instrumentation in IoT Era (ISSI) inShanghai, China9.Comparison of teaching
