? © American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 2019 ASEE Annual Conference & Exposition 9. Do you think having interdisciplinary members on the team helped the Capstone project? Ifso, how?The summary of this post Capstone survey results is shown in Table 1. All team membersparticipated in the survey despite the fact that the capstone students had already graduated andmany are already employed in firms, indicating their continued dedication to the project.Students selected positive scores toward improvement in technical skills and their soft skills (e.g.teamwork). Students received good grades from the instructors in this project. Moreover,students provided constructive feedback through additional survey questions

believed that the introduction of challenge-based engineering projectswill create a favorable atmosphere for creativity, increased participation and teamwork.Furthermore, the expected outcome for the participating students are valuable technical andproblem-solving skills, teamwork, project and time management and other soft skills includingwritten and oral communication. In addition, the Perseus demonstration, and associatedpresentations and reports, will provide the Department of Defense (DOD) and relatedstakeholders insight into a number of rapidly evolving technical areas of interest through non-traditional lenses.Project DemonstrationAt the end of the two-semester period during November 2013, the Perseus II demonstration tookplace in the Dive

experiential learning, which share similar benefits, but are alsochallenged by the current pandemic. Experiential learning often entails group work, interactionwith technical equipment, and collaboration with individuals outside of our campus. These typesof activities have become more difficult as we’ve entered an era of social distancing, remotelearning, and other COVID-19 safety protocols.These teaching and learning strategies are being employed and assessed both inside and outsideof the classroom. One approach from outside the classroom is student participation in inter-university design competitions which provides opportunities for hands-on, team-based workwhich motivates and enhances soft skills development [1], [5]. Service learning, or

shorter. In some emerging technologies thelifetime of a new technique may be less than three years. However, basic skills and knowledgelike mathematics, physics and technical disciplines are still fundamental, while the soft skills likecommunication, team-work, and project management are becoming more and more important.Renewable energy technologies are highly interdisciplinary and are crossing over severalengineering fields making quite difficult to be fully covered in a single course [6, 9- 12].However, renewable energy engineering has a great potential to attract students from allengineering programs and for multi-disciplinary projects, involving electrical, mechanical, civil,and chemical engineering aspects while still being accessible to

At the international competitions of 2008-2010, 97% of theteachers/mentors (N=239) stated that the competition motivated their students to learn teambuilding, problem solving, and/or critical thinking skills.When parents were asked what changes they had seen in their child as a result of
