transformation emphases are illustrated in the coloredboxes. The colored circles signified the methods and decisions of self improvements (SI0-1, SI1-2, andSI2-3). Various self-improvement methods (teacher reflection, product creativity check, and PBLexperience student report) were adopted in each round (text underlined). The major decisions of self-improvement are provided in the colored circle.This paper is structured as a case study to explain the transformation process listed inFigure 1, including working emphases, self-improvement methods and sequentialtransformation decisions for the DCS capstone course. Figure 1 shows the timeline ofcapstone transformation (rounds 0 to 3) and self-improvement cycles from 0-1, 1-2,and 2-3.In the following, Session

. • Resource Material: Most established and long-running courses in engineering or otherwise, tend to take the approach of selecting a course textbook and to utilize all the instructor resources, presentation slides and test banks provided by the publisher. While instructors do customize course content to reflect their personal teaching styles or to incorporate contemporary trends and developments in the field, this is still optional. But with the engineering core courses, particularly with the objective of introducing appropriate systems engineering knowledge, generating instructional material not found in the course textbook is imperative and no longer an option. This also means generating assignments

, design and policy for sustainable energy systems. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 The Use of Systems Engineering Principles to Improve Learning Outcomes in a Multidisciplinary CourseAbstractAs individual engineering disciplines and applications mature, there is an increased need formultidisciplinary education and application competencies. As an example, a course on modernautomotive vehicles must now incorporate electrical propulsion in addition to mechanicalpropulsion to reflect the current state of the art. Systems engineering provides a framework forteaching a multidisciplinary approach in the design and analysis of these complex systems. In thisstudy, the hypothesis that
