The specimens were tested to findthe effects of cold rolling on hardness and tensile strength. The students calculated theamount of aluminum required for the casting, estimated the solidification time of thecasting with Chvorinov's rule, and completed most aspects of the specimen casting,rolling, preparation, and property testing processes. The final deliverable of theexperiment was a professional quality laboratory report comparing and analyzing severalmechanical properties.

In response to this need, an exploratory study was conducted at asatellite campus of a large, Midwestern research-focused university. The intervention includedthe implementation of an entrepreneurially minded and communication-focused project,developed by the instructor of an upper-level undergraduate manufacturing course. Post-completion of the project, a metacognitive reflection assignment was administered to theparticipants and subsequently, data was collected. Participant responses were qualitativelyanalyzed using thematic analysis which led to the discovery of three themes: (1) identifyingvalue in nature-inspired design, (2) confidence in communication and self-expression
