skills.The question of student motivation is an interesting one. The goal is to intrinsically motivatestudents, but we know from our own experience and from research studies that most situationsinvolve a mixture of intrinsic and extrinsic motivational factors. As a clear example, considerhow many students would submit a design report documenting their work if it was not beinggraded and the only motivation to do so was to get experience writing and to get formativefeedback from the instructor to improve their writing skills. The book chapter Motivation toLearn in College Science14 details various factors that influence college student motivation andlists some practical suggestions for increasing it, including showing relevance of activities

, given newadvances in cloud-computing and real-time synchronous collaboration, the ability to quicklydigitally prototype unique concepts in CAD has never been easier. Given that new engineeringgraduates are part of the “digital native” generation, anecdotal evidence suggests these designershave a natural inclination and ability for this digital prototyping. Our study seeks to formally testwhether a dichotomy exists between younger designers who are entering the workforce, andolder designers who are veterans in product development, regarding the best-practices in CADusage for conceptual design - “Conceptual CAD”.The paper begins with a critical review of the existing body of literature which advises thedesigner against Conceptual CAD.

It doubled throughput by allowing two teams to setup and test simultaneously. 3. It could be used in the center of the room to allow maximum viewing by the entire class. Students directly observe the outcomes for their design decisions. 4. It provided a positive role model for a device that had been created by students to meet a specific need. 5. It recycled water, conserving resources.Although the credit hour change and the sequencing of the course would likely have some effecton overall outcome of the course, they were not individually investigated.

They involvecollaboration, both in and out of classroom settings. Students are asked to take responsibility fortheir learning, while faculty members assume coaching and mentoring roles” [1]. We havecertainly seen the collaboration aspect in our interdisciplinary student teams.

To determine if certaintypes or classifications of design projects lead to more or less successful capstone designexperiences for students, six years of evaluation data on electrical engineering capstone designprojects at a large, public research university were reviewed. Additionally transcripts from fouryears of an end-of-semester “after action review” of a capstone design course by faculty,students, and teaching assistants were reviewed as well as artifacts from design projects ifavailable.Previous Work on Design Project Characterization and

Student participation almost doubled to a total of 16 undergraduate students and 3graduate students. While a design-build-fly activity was desired, it was determined to be toodifficult to achieve in this second project iteration. Instead, a design-build-test framework waschosen as an intermediate step on the way to a collaborative full design-build-fly activity.In order to avoid repeating the same student project every year, the project’s leadership teamsearched for a test activity template to best fit with the
