This was a collaborative projectbetween senior students in the departments of mechanical and electrical engineering at the UnitedArab Emirates University as part of their senior design capstone project. The students withguidance from their faculty mentors followed the various designing and building stages of thedesign process of the involved mechatronics system. This includes the steps of designing the setup,the building of the prototype, and the testing and verification of

Team-based newly designed class projects emulated real-world solutions based on embedded systems. The class project also required the students tolearn and apply project management skill (i.e. SCRUM). The experience and implications ofthese class projects have been reported with respect to the course learning outcomes. Lastly,the author’s perspectives on how the course has prepared the students for the marketplace hasbeen incorporated.Introduction and Objective:Embedded system technology is a key aspect of modern electronic systems and devices.Every Electrical

Peer observation is a well-established method for providingfeedback to faculty and may serve as an important alternative to student evaluations [6]. Legalconcerns have emerged about using student evaluations as the only metric for evaluatingteaching in promotion and tenure decisions due to the well-documented bias present in studentevaluations.MethodsMost of the authors had participated in traditional peer observation prior to this project but thevarious forms we used were summative: check-lists of basic practices.

One particularly effective approach isthrough hands-on learning and “making,” since children often have a natural affinity fortinkering and learn well through active involvement in meaningful activities [1]. Hands-on,project-based learning has been shown to get more students engaged with STEAM and help themlearn key skills for the future [2]. However, most STEAM education programs target students inupper-middle or high school [3]. Bustamante et. al write, “Since engineering education hastraditionally not been part of the general K–12 education experience (i.e., the beginning ofprimary school (age 5) through the end of secondary school (age 18)), early childhood educatorshave minimal background in engineering

There are technological and societalbarriers towards overcoming the conventional linear cycle of consumption. A societal challengeis the flow of electronic waste between countries, for example from the United States to China.However, the focus of the RET Site was to provide research projects based on the naturalsciences for the teachers, so the issue of electronic waste export was not explicitly addressed.Instead, teachers focused on characterizing and solve technical challenges.

The pervasiveassumption underlying much of this research is that effective team functioning results ineffective innovation outcomes. Yet, the relationship between team dynamics and innovationoutcomes has not been well studied. Most of the existing research does not assess theeffectiveness of the final product of teamwork, nor does most existing research examineinnovation outcomes in relation to team functioning.
