CourseStudents in the Mechanical Engineering Technology program are required to take one SystemsDesign course during the last year of their program. Students are assigned to design a system orsystems that require use of the knowledge that they have acquired in lower level courses.Sometimes, if the project is large enough, they are assigned a group project. "ETME 475-Mechanical Systems Design" course is a three credit-hour course, carrying 2 credit-hours for thelecture and one credit-hour (two contact-hours) for laboratory. For lecture part of the ETME 475-Mechanical Systems Design course, several chapters from “Engineering Design” by GeorgeDieter and Linda Schmidt [8] were covered. A typical teaching schedule for the course is ingiven in Table 1. Exams

It includes six degrees of coordination namely reflexmovement, fundamental movements, perceptual abilities, physical abilities, skilled movements,and non-discursive communication.A review of existing literature in the psychomotor domain shows that teaching models have beendeveloped to promote critical thinking in the psychomotor setting [18]. Contemporary motor-skill learning theory [19] clearly supports the interaction of cognitive and neuromuscularprocesses as being necessary for the efficient execution of motor programs, which in turn utilizescognitive functions such as comparing, evaluating, memory, and imagery.

learning strategies can help students process information and solve problems7.That fact that assessment is a highly studied area in research underscores the fact that assessmentpractices play a subtle, complex, and enormously important role in student’s experience oflearning4. Flexible assessment modes can be seen as a first step towards a more student-ledpedagogy, while increasing student’s engagement in the assessment process3. The backbone ofour approach to flexible assessment is to use modern teaching techniques such as the flippedclassroom and studio format as they inherently place more responsibility on the student to learnthe course material. The flipped classroom moves control from teacher to student toaccommodate various learning styles

To betterunderstand these strategies, this paper uses a descriptive case-study approach to identify lessonslearned to encourage student engagement in a university makerspace.

A key difference in thisframework as compared to other typical capstone designs, independent studies, or research creditcourses is that undergraduate TAs and project managers within the project teams are responsiblefor developing many of the assignments distributed to those students enrolled the course as theproject progresses. The methods of student assessment within this framework include: individualor small-group weekly assignments, design notebook checks, peer and self-evaluations,participation, summative technical reports, and the Humanitarian Library.
