we analyze these five students’ thought processes as they completed theOEMPs [11]. Here, we examine only what they thought about the problems, and find fourthemes: 1) The OEMPs related to the real world, 2) the OEMPs helped to teach course concepts,3) the OEMPs were fun, and 4) the OEMPs made the students think.Two students discussed how they thought the OEMPs were a good addition to the coursebecause they showed how the material applied to the real world and required them to practiceskills they would need for their engineering careers. Broderick remarked twice that he “thoughtthese problems were really good real world applications.” Henry described how the OEMPsprovided more real world practice than a standard problem: You start out

To use a spoon, the person may need to like the color; and the material ofthe blade must be strong enough for an endurance task. Because design decisions areconsequential, undergraduate engineering programs have a responsibility to prepare students asdecision makers.Capstone design courses allow undergraduate engineering students to experience open-endeddesign projects before starting their professional careers. As such, capstone serves as anopportunity to develop students’ ability to make decisions in an ill-structured setting.
