It allows researchers to “simultaneously pursuethe goals of developing effective learning environments and using such environments asnaturalistic laboratories to study learning and teaching”12. Within this framework, 4 models of aRube Goldbergineering curriculum were iteratively designed and implemented. Fundamentally,all models shared the same learning objectives, content material and pedagogical approaches, butvaried in terms of the implementation setting and structure. Some of the specific variations were:number, demographic distribution, and cultural and educational background of the students;methods of recruitment; mechanisms for financially

The initial design course utilized the projects toexperientially develop important skillsets, such as the design process, project management,verbal communication, teamwork, social considerations, and the application of scientific andmathematic principles. These skills were expected to be developed by the students, with

Lave and Wenger7 outline that learning through legitimateperipheral participation takes place no matter which educational form provides a context forlearning or whether there is any intentional educational distinction form at all.

Thus, the goal of learning, behaviourism submits, is to understand thereality and modify behaviour accordingly, and the purpose of teaching is to transfer theknowledge from expert to learner18. The behaviourist model is still widely adopted forinstructional design of teaching factual or procedural knowledge of engineering. Instructorsconvert the reality into abstract or generalized representations, and transfer them to studentsthrough a well-planned, linear and gradual procedure in a “tamed” environment, be it aclassroom or laboratory. The students’ performance is assessed by measuring the proximity oftheir behaviour (answering questions, writing reports and essays, performing laboratoryexperiments, etc.) to the expected
