situated laboratory helps prepare engineering students by providing anauthentic engineering project that is completed by a group of students taking on the role ofengineers in industry [10], [11], [12]. Often, the problems solved by engineers in the universityclassroom differ substantially from those seen in the workplace [13]. Primarily, students are oftennot asked to frame problems, consider multiple solution paths, manage uncertainties, or makedecisions in the classroom [14], [15]. Laboratories positioning students as engineers working ona realistic task can encourage active and productive engagement with the problem and with peers[16], [17], [18], [19].Engaging students in disciplinary practice also has potential to fundamentally address issues

This fictitious, but realistic scenario providessome motivation for the students to understand the introductory theory of electric circuits.As an alternative to the role-playing introduction, interest can be generated through a discrepantevent. The circuit used during the laboratory has an inherent discrepancy if a student tries todirectly measure resistance across each of the three resistors. Two of the resistors are in parallel,so when measurements are taken, both resistors will exhibit an identical value. (See Figure 1,resistors R2 and R3.) However, the two resistors

Moreover, it later became apparent that due to thedemanding nature of this course, students are often stressed and this stress can lead tointerpersonal conflicts between team members. It was thus argued that students could benefitfrom supplementary COM instruction in conflict negotiation and resolution. By inviting a COMinstructor into the senior design course, COM support could be deeply embedded in the students'capstone experience, providing timely instruction just before graduation.

Lesson 4: Universities, industry, and other stakeholders working in isolation can’t do much more to help engineering faculty address these problems.Traditional silos in engineering tend to separate learning in the university from doing in theengineering workplace. The role of the university is to teach, and students are supposed to learn.Upon graduation, students begin working, where they are supposed to perform their jobs in waysthat help their organizations meet business goals.Such silos mean that academics often work in academic circles.

It has a relatively long history in K-12education and higher education [14], [15]. According to Geravis, 2016, CBE can trace its originsin US education back to the Morill Land-Acts of 1862 and the notion of applied education.CBE focuses on having students demonstrate the mastery and application of knowledge andskills beyond the confines of the classroom (i.e., in the real world).
