,particularly when unraveling ill-structured problems such as engineering design. The major aimof this five-year research project is to study the self-regulated learning (SRL) activities of collegeseniors engaged in a capstone engineering design project. This project is grounded in Butler andCartier’s SRL model, which describes the interplay between affect, motivation, cognition, andmetacognition within academic engineering design activities. Dym & Little’s design processmodel was also used as sensitizing theoretical framework. Specific objectives of the researchactivities in this project are to (1) Build research protocols and tools for studying student self-regulation; (2) Describe the self-regulation strategies in which students engage

First, our research indicates theinterdependence among cognitive processes, discursive identity, and the students’ work context.Second, our research explores the interdependence among the various judgments students mustmake in order to construct the knowledge constituting their senior projects. These judgments areclassified within three broad themes—assumptions and model building judgments, rhetorical anddiscursive judgments, and framing and positioning judgments. Our thematic map illustrates therole of social practice in the creation and re-creation of engineering knowledge. Our thematicmaps

Design activity engagement frames thesocial context of our investigation [4] and describes the complex cognitive [7], [15], [16] andsocial processes [2], [17] involved in the design process within a capstone course. Theseprocesses are a result from the structure of capstone courses, within which students engage incomplex open-ended projects and collaborate with student peers as well as professionalengineers sponsors. We further study student’s motivation to engage in design behaviors asrelated to their identity construction [8]–[10]. Finally, we connect students’ understanding ofdesign activity engagement to literature in situated cognition [12

thepotential impact of the on-going work was evident [30]. It is well-accepted that the currentgeneration of college students have an affinity for environmental and social issues and thatlinking efforts to these “Grand Challenges” is inspirational and provides an external motivationfor long-term career goals [31], [32]. The Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation(LSAMP) program was used to give the RS students their first experience working in a modernresearch laboratory as a team member under faculty direction [33]. Once the students hadexperienced working under a faculty member, they were given a chance to direct a project oftheir own choosing.

Our research examined how engineering students empathize with users anddevelop empathic abilities that have implications on their design innovation skills. The projectteam developed empathic innovation workshops and embedded them into existing biomedicalengineering capstone courses. Data were collected using surveys, student project reports,ideation tasks, and observations. These workshops resulted in significant changes in students’emphatic tendencies. From our qualitative studies, we also conjectured that the overall empathicpotency of a student design

We are focusing on the immediate need for improved, readily-transferrable techniques for the incorporation of technical writing in engineering courses, mosttypically at the sophomore and junior levels. The premise with selecting the sophomore andjunior levels is that most programs “bookend” technical writing in some fashion, with freshman-level design courses and senior-level capstone courses often being more project-based andalready involving substantial writing. In contrast, the sophomore and junior levels tend not toinclude much writing beyond formatted laboratory reports, although with resource limitationseven these reports have
