activities will be described in such detail, so they can bereplicated by any interested program or instructor, including a clear alignment of the StudentLearning Objectives with measurable course assessment and evaluation tools and methods.The project was created by a mechanical engineering freshman student within the university’sSTAR (Students Tackling Advanced Research) scholars program, under the guidance andmentorship of one of the authors and faculty with Engineering Technology Department. Thisprogram is designed to attract young creative minds in their first-year to participate in faculty-mentored innovative or creative work or research during the summer after their freshman year.The project developed involved a dual air and water system

For example, toreinforce metacognitive awareness, students were asked to use mind mapping to represent theprocess of maximizing the profit yield in the physical simulation activity.4. Results and Analysis4.1 Metacognitive AwarenessThe metacognitive awareness scores of all the student groups also increased after the soft skillsworkshops were introduced. Figure 3 below displays the averages of the standardized MAIscores from all members in their groups. The picture on the left shows the mind mapping activitybeing applied to the physical simulation.

and students. Further, there is no TA or machinistassistance in this design class. Thus, three ideas came to the instructor’s mind when designing thetechnique learning objectives of the MANE 450: 1) Instead of focusing on the prototype product,train the student about design thinking and process, 2) Instead of helping the students to brainstormdesign by trial and error, teach students scientific design theories to support the design conceptgeneration, followed by the application of engineering approaches to embody the concepts and toanalyze the design, and 3) Design the class and prototyping process as Maker activities.Other than the technical objectives, the course also aims to train the students on ‘non-technical’aspects such as professional

Figure 4 – Extruded 3D printing filament (left) Desktop 3D Filament Manufacturing Device Finished Prototype (middle, right)An important aspect of this project was that it is marketed for educational use. One way to demonstratean Engineering process is to supplement with a lab book. Student team designed a supplemental lab bookwith a few things in mind. The first was that we wanted the user to be able to understand the basics ofplastic extrusion and the mechanics behind the process. The next thing was to include information onplastic recycling and to show what plastics

Thisprogram is designed to attract young creative minds in their first-year to participate in faculty-mentored innovative or creative work or research during the summer after their freshman year.The project developed involved a dual air and water system, using motor and pump as well asappropriate instrumentation to measure desired parameters in order to estimate and quantifyenergy and subsequently efficiency of the subsystems or components. The student developedcompetencies in the area of analytical modeling, CAD 3D modeling to simulate final designassembly, additive manufacturing, and system integration. Student
