The ‘Engineering Clinics’ atRowan University a design infused, multidisciplinary, eight-semester sequence of courses in the College ofEngineering. Inter/multi-disciplinary student teams engage in laboratory hands on activities focused on solving realworld problems related to automation, additive manufacturing, embedded systems, renewable energy, artificialintelligence and biomedical technology to name a few. The aim is to prepare the students for highly evolving,competitive marketplaces. It also serves as an excellent testbed for conceptualizing and iterating engineeringinnovation and research.This paper will discuss two projects where multidisciplinary groups of

and refining soft robot fingers, thendesigning and improving soft grippers.ParticipantsUsing a purposive sample, to “maximize what we can learn” [17, p. 4], two students wereselected and invited to engage in this research as a design team. First, the teacher Mr. Gray (allnames are pseudonyms) was chosen for his past participation in the broader soft robotics study,and therefore familiarity with the design context, as well as his willingness to host the in-classobservations and research for the case study. Mr. Gray began the soft robot design lessons in hisclassroom and moved to a nearby laboratory space as students began fabrication stages of design.Students worked individually on conceptual phases of design, before forming a team to

toexpose students “to the language of the mechanical things that surround us” [3] (pg. 2). Due tothe success of this work, product dissection in engineering education has become moreprominent in introductory engineering courses [7]. While prior work has also brought awareness to the potential learning benefits of physicalproduct dissection, there are still many obstacles that keep dissection from being adopted on awider scale [8, 9]. For instance, there is a wide range of the products dissected in these courses;early adopters dissected anything from a see-and-say children’s toy to a four stroke engine [4, 5,10]. In addition, the material cost and the space and safety requirements of the laboratories alsohinder the large scale deployment

produce computer-based models at theexpense of physical models. This fact is behind a general trend of teaching applied engineeringsubjects with minimal students’ involvement with physical set-ups including: laboratoryexperiments. Carrying out laboratory experiments and generating experimental data, visiting aproject site, and using pencil and paper to produce a schematic, are gradually fading away. Thesetraditional tools were instrumental in developing an engineering common sense. It is argued herethat generating data from physical models is potentially a great learning tool, particularly whenthe model is built by the students. Building a model, testing a model, generating physical datafrom the model, and analyzing said data, help students

This is challenging for the students,especially in a group environment such as senior capstone design. Likewise, studies have shownthat the international students have a difficult time succeeding in courses requiring the students togive formal presentations, which is true in senior capstone design.9,36,54 During the qualitative datacollection, international students often cited the nontraditional mode of course presentationsinstead of traditional course learning modes (sitting in class or laboratory). Further, internationalstudents expressed concern that their limited English-speaking ability may adversely affect theirteam.It was also found that the student’s intrinsic value decreased overall from the beginning of the fallsemester of senior
