design courses into every year of their program,while others provide students with a single capstone design experience in the final year.While some institutions use problem based learning approaches, others use guidedexperiential learning to teach engineering design. Design courses also vary by the source ofthe projects. In some institutions, instructors design the courses while in other institutions;students propose their design projects. A recent trend has been the use of industry-led andservice-based projects for capstone design courses. Projects often vary by team size and mayconsist of teams of one to as many as five members.A review of the literature reveals that there has been considerable investigation into thetechniques used to teach

It usesepisodes as an analytical framework to examine meetings, termed coaching sessions, between afaculty member and student teams. We focus on using episodes to identify the major themes ofdiscussion and to specifically identify the role of that guidance in the students’ subsequentengagement in activities.We found that feedback in the project studied was given on the following professional skills:teamwork, communication (written and verbal), project management, impact of engineeringsolutions on the economic and societal context, symbols of legitimacy, and

There are many software packages that aid in creatingconcept maps, but the developers for this project simply used Microsoft PowerPoint. A processfor creating large-scale concept maps is outlined in previous literature [12]. After a concept mapis created it is converted into an XML document so that the software can interpret the conceptsand links between concepts. This XMLdocument captures the structure of theconcept map (what the nodes are andwhat other nodes they are linked to),while
