If another PDSA cycle is needed, go back to Plan (P)Project DetailsFeedback received from a previous research study, where a process simulator was used,indicated that students were interested in real processes to work on and improve [19]. For timeconstraints and lack of manufacturing companies close to campus, opportunities for projectswere identified in laboratories utilized for teaching plastics technology as well as additivemanufacturing using a 3-D Printer. These projects were a part of a new senior engineering courseon

This paper reviews the literature oncapstone projects in general, to draw lessons that can be learned to formulate the basisfor designing the course. It then describes how the course objectives, teaching andlearning activities and assessments are devised. A typical delivery of the course isthen described where the three elements have been detailed. The main learningactivities were reviews of lessons from other
