IntroductionThe maker movement combines creative makers and advanced technologies such as the Arduinomicrocontroller and personal 3D printing to drive innovation in manufacturing, engineering,industrial design, hardware technology and education [1]. Through the process of making,students learn deeper. 3D printing and rapid prototyping allows students to practice the iterativedesign process [2] to produce a functional, aesthetic, and viable product [3].Hands-on projects provide students with a “real

His research interests include evaluating conceptual knowledge, mis- conceptions and technologies to promote conceptual change. He has co-developed a Materials Concept Inventory and a Chemistry Concept Inventory for assessing conceptual knowledge and change for intro- ductory materials science and chemistry classes. He is currently conducting research on NSF projects in two areas. One is studying how strategies of engagement and feedback with support from internet tools and resources affect conceptual change and associated impact on students’ attitude, achievement, and per
capstone has been revised around the Vee Modelto describe systems engineering process. The top-down and bottom-up design perspectives arecompared, and weekly deliverables are presented to help students practice systems engineering.A detailed description of weekly deliverables and rubric for the Critical Design Review aredescribed elsewhere1. Two perspectives of the Vee-Model are described to provide a holisticperspective of system-level thinking2-4. A 3D-printed quadcopter with its stable flight controlare provided as an illustration of the student efforts.5 Major blocks of the system include: (1) thequadcopter frame, (2) the control system, and (3) the power and thrust system.The last part of the paper attempts to compare the Vee Model system
between teamsin different sessions. After the class presentation and the reflection lecture (i.e., the week-15),two additional weeks (i.e., the week 16 and 17) were offered for each team to compose a finalreport (which had no page limitation) to summarize their complete learning process andoutcome. As a result, the 4-page report for evaluation is made different from the final report inthe sense that, the former is accomplished strictly using one approach, whereas the latter mightbe impacted by both approaches. By doing so, we intended to reach a subtle balance betweenteaching two approaches separately for the comparison purpose and combining them together inthe interest of student’s learning.3.3 Design evaluation:A total of 36 graduate

differing environments. This work would focus more on the style of teamwork rather than thestyle of learning and is outside the scope of this paper.A limitation of this study was how heavily focused the data collection was on individual teams.The observational protocol limited the data collection process to small numbers of teams perhackathon. In the future, a revised observational protocol that would allow for more teams tocollect data from would be optimal. This change would provide more data to analyze whichwould give the study a broader range of individuals to review.References[1] S. Jordan and M.

This selection process requires the ideas generated previously befleshed in the form of basic configurations that can be evaluated, for instance, as a computer modelto determine whether these preliminary designs are feasible and practical. Often this is a hands-onphase of design, where the team makes simple or more sophisticated prototypes and conduct teststo see if they meet the design specifications. To facilitate testing of the ideas, an overall systemmight be decomposed into a series of sub

For example, Berland and Reiser3found that students engaged in the communicative practice of scientific argumentationdiffered depending on whether they believed they were attempting to demonstrate theirown knowledge or to win a debate. In addition, researchers in communicationdemonstrate that student’s written products change depending on the perceivedaudience20,21,23.
