? Development and Testing of a Prototyping Planning ToolAbstractA new prototyping planning tool guides designers in choosing between virtual vs. physicalprototyping strategies based on answers to Likert-scale questions. We developed this tool toaugment prior work in design methods seeking to facilitate prototyping strategy development.This new tool was tested with a pilot experiment in which engineering students were taskedwith optimizing the design of a four-bar linkage to be used to draw a specific shape. Thestudents were then instructed to use the new prototyping planning tool to decide whether tocreate a virtual or physical prototype of a four-bar linkage, with the goal of maximizing theperformance metric detailed in the design problem statement

enable the planned development anddeployment of families of related products whereas a traditional design processes optimize on asingle design. Product family design places an increased emphasis on management ofinformation due to the reuse aspect of having a platform. This has prompted a multi-prongedcollaborative research effort by four universities that covers many facets of the product platformrealm. The National Science Foundation’s Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU)Program was one of these research efforts. The REU Program gave five students from the fouruniversities the opportunity to discover platform design and participate in ongoing researchbetween the four universities. The students spent a month each at Bucknell University

Different than optimizingproducts independently, it requires integration of principles from both management andengineering design for developing a set of products that share common features, components,and/or modules.

the project management course inagile methods were encouraged to organize their teams and projects according to scrum.At the core of scrum is the notion of empowering the team to organize the tasks independentlytogether with the idea of quick prototyping for fast customer feedback. Formal methods, incontext, rely more heavily on documentation, planning and preparation. The hypothesis forthis study is that delegating the responsibility of project organization to the student teamwould motivate the students to take a greater responsibility for both the project and their ownlearning, and, that this would promote increased student learning by way of motivatingstudent responsibility.Students of the three scrum-teams took a large responsibility for

Overall, the first semester of theproject is focused on problem formulation, research, and planning with some teams being able tostart on the concept development design phase. At the core, for most capstone teams, the secondsemester focused on concept development and initial efforts towards prototyping and modeling,both of which continue into the third semester. Detailed designs are the culmination of efforts inthe third semester and accompany testing and evaluation efforts. For several teams, the fourthsemester continues to focus on

AbstractDesign tasks are ubiquitous, complex, ill-structured, and challenging to students and professionalengineering designers. Successful designing depends on having not only adequate knowledge butalso sufficient awareness and control of that knowledge, known as metacognition. Researchsuggests that metacognition not only enhances learning outcomes but also encourages students tobe self-regulated learners who are metacognitively, motivationally, and behaviorally activeparticipants in their learning process.This article evaluates the extent to which students‟ task interpretation of the design project isreflected in their working plans and monitoring/regulating strategies. Butler and Cartier‟s Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) model was used to evaluate the

(i.e., task interpretation, planning strategies, cognitive strategies,and monitoring and fix-up strategies). The findings suggest Team strategies require a high levelof student involvement and effort, while time strategies and resource management strategies areemployed to a lesser degree, on average. Small differences were seen between male and femalestudents in average strategy expression. Students may be benefitted by interventions designed toimprove self-regulation for specific team management strategies employed by engineeringstudents in relation to project management activities.

“…an ability to function effectively on a team whosemembers together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establishgoals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.” This assessment is performed by measuring each of thecomponents of outcome (5): leadership, collaboration, inclusion, goal setting, task management,and an ability to meet objectives.ABET requires each program to be assessed independently without data from students of differentmajors, even if taking the same course. The capstone project sequence at Grand Valley StateUniversity (GVSU) is well-suited to assess students’ ability to work in a team; however, thecapstone class consists of multidisciplinary teams drawn from multiple engineering programs,making

was not correlated to instructional format. While a majority of the students noted thatthey had a project plan change due to COVID-19, most still felt that they were able to completetheir project. There was no significant difference in self-efficacy of those that noted a projectchange and those that did not. The Fall 2020 survey data was then compared to a previous non-COVID-19 semester’s data. There was no statistically significant difference in engineeringdesign self-efficacy or effort put forth on the project between the two groups. Surprisingly, theFall 2020 COVID-19-affected group had a marginal increase in overall senior design projectsatisfaction.IntroductionIn the Spring 2020 semester, significant educational changes were made
