Authors of [7] developed an analytical sustainable design rubric toaid quantifying students’ abilities to incorporate sustainability into capstone design projects inthe civil and environmental engineering context. It aimed to capture not only the extent to whichstudents engage in sustainable design but also the influence of project sponsors and/or courseinstructors on sustainable design expectations. In [20] the above-mentioned rubric is reviewedand extended in order to broaden its applicability to engineering design projects outside of civiland environmental engineering. Nevertheless, the original and the reviewed rubrics only partiallycover the five sustainability dimensions discussed in the

Indeed, much the same way that anengineer applies math and science to solve problems, a Data Scientist applies statistics and otherdata analysis techniques to solve problems.A Data Scientist uses more sophisticated computational tools than a Data or Business Analyst.Further, Data Scientists are typically expected to find patterns rather than answer a specificstated question. Although the goal is still to solve or address a real-world problem (e.g., bestpredict an outcome), it is easy for students to overlook that. We have found that students doingtheir capstone project are often hoping to obtain data that best shows off their skills, withoutregard to data quality or even meaning, much

Though these team based projects do provide students with opportunities to gainteamwork experiences, it does not necessarily mean that students will develop effectiveteamwork skills from these team project experiences. In many cases, students are left on theirown to make their teams work, as little formal training is provided to students due to variousrestrictions/constraints.

These spaces also offer resources tostudents outside of engineering majors and make room for more interest driven learning thanmore formal design courses. While academic makerspaces are seen as a place for students toengage in design practice, how much explicit support do these spaces provide for designlearning? Many students use makerspaces as a means to engage in fabrication work for courses,such as senior capstone design courses, that formally teach and scaffold design for students.How do students engaging in interest driven fabrication

However, most of the students’ academic development is centered onderiving tedious equations and solving textbook problems, which are difficult to visualize andphysically understand, and cloud their intuitive nature to comprehend a problem on its entirety.These conventional approaches and methods of disseminating content in the classroom have atendency to exclude diverse learning styles of students. Thus, teaching schemes solely focused oncovering themes verbatim from a textbook or paraphrasing from a slide presentation are hinderingthe students’ ability to understand and apply all the engineering principles in design projects.

We also considered inputfrom our department’s Industrial Advisory Board, recent graduates, and current faculty andstudents in selecting a programming language. Two large factors were the prevalence of usingC/C++ in our senior capstone projects, and that our computer science department teachesintroductory programming in C++. The Arduino IDE is freely available on Windows, Mac OSX, and Linux (https://www.arduino.cc/). Even though we have chosen to use C++ for theseprogramming labs, they could easily be adapted to other languages that support the Arduinoplatform such as Python or MATLAB.HardwareAs discussed above, we find that
