When asked to compare SYS 2001 to other courses, students agreed the most withthe statement that ―Compared to other courses, this course used technology to allow moreface-to-face interaction with the instructor(s) and other students.‖ 97% students agreed orstrongly agreed that they received more feedback in SYS 2001 than other courses and 67%agreed or strongly agreed that the structure of the course and the technologies used helpedstudents

No sooner has a client or professor defined a series of objectives fora design project than the designer- whether in a consulting office or in a classroom- want to findout what the customer really wants. Questions such as: what is an economic project? How doyou define the best design? What is a safe design? What are the factor(s) that will affect thedesign the most? Phrasing it differently, knowledge resides in the questions that can be asked andthe answers that can be provided. (2, 3) A sequence

instructional interventions. Theinterventions were either school-wide or part of smaller, in-school academies. The 2012-13school-year was the launch of the Urban Initiative.As part of a larger research project, a set of surveys were developed to measure student attitudestoward STEM and interest in STEM careers. Two versions of the “Student Attitudes towardSTEM (S-STEM) Survey” were created, one for upper elementary students (4th and 5th grade)and another for middle and high school students (6-12th grade). To measure student interest inSTEM careers the final section of the S-STEM Survey contained twelve items, each with adefinition of a STEM career pathway and titles of related occupations.

Design thinking is used in all industries from mechanical 1engineering, business, and healthcare to education, art, and design(http://www.byui.edu/clusters/design-thinking).Specifically, design thinking is defined as a human-centered design process to solving ill-structured problems using an organized method of defining the problem by observing andempathizing with the people who are

differently during the different stages of the design process. As such,the rubric divides the design process into three stages (i.e., Requirements/Problem Definition,Concept Generation/Development, and Technology Integration), which can be modifieddepending upon the design project, and a fourth category for the overall design.Each design stage is examined more closely using questions about the incorporation ofstakeholder considerations at that stage, 1. Did the student(s) state an intention to incorporate stakeholder concerns at this phase? 2. Did the student(s) apply a design process at this stage that could include stakeholder concerns? 3. Was the student(s) successful in integrating stakeholder concerns?These

. This paper describes the newprototype strategy planning tool, the pilot experiment, and results and conclusions. The veryencouraging pilot results provide a template and strong motivation for conducting a larger scaleexperiment for generic prototyping applications.1 IntroductionAn engineering prototype (physical or virtual) is an initial manifestation of a design concept,either a scale or full-size model of a structure or piece of equipment, which can be used toevaluate performance, form, and/or fit. Prototyping is the process of generating prototype(s),usually between concept generation and design verification stages. Prototypes provide designengineers the opportunity to determine if a concept is technically feasible, optimize
