This skill need is reflected in ABET criteria for accrediting engineering programs:Programs must demonstrate that their students have “an ability to function on multidisciplinaryteams.” [5] To enable the success of their graduates and employers of their graduates,engineering programs must prepare and document that their graduates can effectively developand consistently contribute value to multidisciplinary teams.Teaching engineering students teamwork, although vital to success of the student and theprogram, is attempted in many different ways, with varied success

Inaddition to studying these physical elements, the students investigated the mechanics ofstorytelling, and they explored the historical and creative relationship between automation andnarrative. Through hands-on projects, students designed and fabricated basic automata that givelife to stories of their own design. From the project deliverables and student reflections, theauthor finds that incorporating storytelling and automaton creation had three major impacts onstudent learning. First, it allowed students to create connections between elements of storytellingand engineering and provided a new perspective to approach engineering problems.

Further, we posit that utilization of an assessment instrument,the learning statement (LS), can be used to both enable and assess studentlearning. In our course, AME4163: Principles of Engineering Design, a senior-level,pre-capstone, engineering design course, students learn by reflecting on doing bywriting statements anchored in Kolb’s experiential learning cycle. In Fall 2016we collected over 11,000 learning statements from over 150 students.

abilityto transfer the closed-ended skills used on a typical math problem to an open-ended problem.The Reflective Practitioner. A study by Valkenberg and Dorst discussed the use of descriptive andreflective practices in design [6]. This paper drew heavily on Schön’s paradigm of reflective practice [7].Schön contends that every design problem is necessarily a unique challenge. Teaching students the skillsto reflect on their design while innovating, in order to advance the design, is essential to teaching design.This also can lead to problems, since if every problem is unique, and the students want a single concreteroadmap for how a project should go, there is bound to be conflict.

We now seek to additionallyleverage Piaget’s cognitive constructivism and Vygotsky’s sociocultural theoryinto structured learning exercises. One such exercise is the ‘Learning Statement,’(LS) a reflective exercise in which students directly translate experience intolearning and articulate expected future value from that learning.

feedback can be more constructive for students in adesign curriculum [36]. As such, verbal feedback plays a significant role in success and teamperformance for students in engineering design curriculums [37]. Prior research shows evidencethat elementary students have navigated the demands of giving engineering design peer feedback[38]. Even more, student discourse helps students to understand how their drawn designs (e.g.conceptual models) can be used during an engineering design challenge in an elementary scienceclassroom [39].Peer comparison can also facilitate student reflection. Through reflection, students can evaluatethe pros and cons of student models, intentionally select solutions, and purposefully chooseimprovements. Prior studies

The goal of theWestern Michigan University (WMU) student team was to design and construct an apparatus tobe used in a K-12 classroom that properly displays the properties of light as they occur in nature.The reflection, refraction, transmittance and absorption properties of light are recurrently shownin textbooks as if they occur individually, while in reality they occur simultaneously. Based onthe expressed need of a local middle school teacher for such a device, the team drafted designs asan assignment in an entry-level freshman engineering course. After one design was decidedupon, the device itself was produced, and given to the teacher

Each of thesesections had nine teams of four, for a total of 144 students on 36 teams. All of these teams didwell enough that they did not have to submit analyses for the first two performance tests, andonly two teams were required to do an analysis for performance test four. This pattern wasconsistent with the rest of the course sections, as more than half of the teams fared poorly on thethird test, but passed the others, often with bonus points. Therefore, the analysis will focusexclusively on the responses to the third performance test
