ongoing projects. Our analysis revealed that allteams carried their heuristic-inspired concepts to their latter stage designs, with seven teamscarrying their heuristic-inspired concepts to their final designs and prototypes. As all eight teamsstudied were working on different design problems, our findings demonstrate the utility andpracticality of Design Heuristics across various design contexts. In addition, we found patterns inthe design teams’ general approaches to the design process, including synthesis, transformation,and abstraction. Seven of the eight teams showed some evidence of concept synthesis in theirdesign processes, but often struggled in synthesizing multiple concepts together. Additionally, allteams seemed to directly transfer

This disconnect hasresulted in today’s engineering students lacking the key skills needed to be successful engineers [4]. There have been many prominent calls to reduce the distance between engineering education andengineering practice, with perhaps the most notable being from the National Academy of Engineering’sEngineer of 2020 project [5], [6]. As a result, engineering education is starting to change.One key area of change in engineering education is the inclusion of interdisciplinary knowledge andteamwork skills into engineering curricula.

In one section, students were instructed on the use of DesignHeuristics as a means of generating new ideas for an unfamiliar design task. In a different secondsection, students were asked to use Design Heuristics as concept modifiers with their existingideas for a class project. Our goal was to observe the ways students used Design Heuristics inthese two different scenarios. In this paper, we present five case studies from each scenario,showing ideation outcomes as a result of working with the heuristics, and discuss successes andobstacles involved in the implementation of Design Heuristics in the engineering classroom.
