Whenthis tool is properly integrated with effective pedagogies of engagement (like problem-basedlearning, or experiment-based learning), it can enhance students’ achievement of learning goalsand the development of essential skills such as teamwork, creativity, and digital skills. Also,online collaboration can facilitate peer assessment and peer learning. While it was found thatMiro was an effective learning tool in an engineering laboratory-intensive course, the smallsample size makes for the fact that these results cannot be generalized. A follow-up study withmore participants is required.ConclusionOur study confirms that Miro can be easily employed to facilitate effective online collaboration,thus enhancing student engagement.

One of theprototypes was an aquaculture hoop house (which provided a great analogy for how greenhousegases work) that was used to grow both plants and fish. The energy needs of the system’s fans,pumps, etc. were met by a nearby photovoltaic array. In addition to the traditional photovoltaicarray, there was also a building integrated photovoltaic prototype which enabled the students tolearn more first-hand about utilizing different parts of the solar spectrum for different uses (e.g.electrical energy vs. thermal energy). The second tour was of a local 30 MW hydroelectric plant.Students were able to view the several spare turbines as well as the generators and

Furthermore, since such competitions are extra-curricular in nature, only a small percentage of undergraduate engineering students elect toparticipate: engineering coursework does not lend by itself to the practice of elevator pitching,and a crowded curriculum may not allow for engineering students to take business classes at all,or opt into elevator pitch competitions [9].Thus far, we have found that the University of Rhode Island has introduced an elective courseavailable for engineering students that is similar in nature to the one we offer at Stevens Instituteof Technology (Stevens) in that it requires an elevator pitch competition as an outcome of thecourse.

Games have often beenused throughout history as a tool to teach students important skills such as reading, logic, andmathematics; therefore, it logically follows that computer games can be utilized as an effectivetool for teaching students programming skills1.

resultshave direct implications for engineering curriculum design and teaching practices; in short, it iscritical that students are given reasonably difficult tasks that incorporate physical testing, aregiven time for multiple iteration cycles, and are supported as they design.IntroductionEngineering educators seek to engage learners in authentic engineering practices, includingtesting and iterating on designs (NAE and NRC, 2009). Failure is an integral part of the iterationcycle in the engineering design process; designs often fail, that is, do not meet all criteria andconstraints, and a central disciplinary practice in engineering is interpreting this failure asfeedback on those designs (Lottero-Perdue & Parry, 2014; Cunningham & Carlsen
