Engineering at Stanford University. Besides teaching both undergraduate and graduate design and education related classes at Stanford University, she conducts research on engineering education and work-practices, and applied finite element analysis. From 1999-2008 she served as a Senior Scholar at the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, leading the Foundation’s engineering study (as reported in Educating Engineers: Designing for the Future of the Field). In addition, in 2011 Dr. Sheppard was named as co-PI of a national NSF innovation center (Epicenter), and leads an NSF program at Stanford on summer research experiences for high school teachers. Her industry experiences includes engineering positions at

Prior to this position, he was the Associate Chair of the Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Tech – Savannah. He was also the Founding Director of the Systems Realization Laboratory at Georgia Tech. Farrokh’s current research focus is model-based realization of complex systems by managing uncertainty and complexity. The key question he is investigating is what are the principles underlying rapid and robust concept exploration when the analysis models are incomplete and possibly inaccurate? His quest for answers to the key question are anchored in three projects, namely, Integrated Realization of

The nature of designing activities requires an environment that is not of a traditional classroom nature. Deep Orange requires students to collaborate and interact with each other and with faculty on a regular basis in a permanent collaborative space (resembling a studio). The students work on workstations grouped by their team membership as well as team white boards in the Systems Integration Laboratory (SIL), which is divided into two sections; one is an office like area, and the second is a workshop to build and assemble the concept vehicle. The SIL is equipped with

Project-based experiential learning ideallyharnesses a student’s natural interest and motivation to navigate an iterative path of evolvingexperiences, each of which enhance learning in different ways. Figure 1: Kolb's Experiential Learning Conceptual ModelImplementation of the experiential learning model is commonly done through project-basedlearning.

The nature of the casestudies construct limits the ability to determine the impact of specific design stages or activitiesthat can be controlled in laboratory experiments. Future observational studies can address theselimitations.Future research is recommended to determine if these networks develop or change through thelifecycle of the project team and the role of project design team size on network characteristics.Additional similarity measures can also be applied for additional insights.
