These findingsdemonstrate the usefulness of post-hoc audio reflection in engineering education research tobetter assess and address students’ metacognition and problem solving strategies.IntroductionThis work-in-progress paper identifies metacognitive activities and problem solving strategiesutilized by first-year engineering students to solve different types of problems.

Quality Function Deployment (QFD). QFD is a “… means of translating customer requirements into the appropriate technical requirements for each stage of product development and production….” 4 Originally developed in Japan in 1966, QFD entered the US marketplace in 1983 with a paper published in Quality Progress.5 QFD is a heuristic design process that usually follows a four step design progression of 1) product planning, 2) parts deployment, 3) process planning, and 4) production planning, Figure 1.

Words: Process planning, work holding, jigs, fixturesAbstract:Work holding is an important process in machining and requires several months ofintense learning to master it. But knowledge of the process is essential for amanufacturing engineer and therefore should be taught to students in theundergraduate courses. Work holding is an important part in manufacturing planningand is readily affected by the manufacturing process chosen. It influences thematerial-form choice and the number of settings required. In order to educate thisimportant activity to the students an exercise that can demonstrate all these aspectswas needed. This paper describes such an exercise, the machining of the samecomponent where different manufacturing conditions dictated

In the program’sconstrained course environment, course topics typically addressed with multiple courses at otherinstitutions are combined into a single course at USMA. One particular composite course is aHeavy Highway Design and Construction Course, which integrates basic highway designelements with planning for heavy highway construction. Students in this elective have alreadybeen introduced to the basic fundamentals of highway geometric design in a site design courseand have completed a general construction management course.

An alternative approach described in this paperis “strategic doing”. As in agile product development, the approach uses iterative cycles ofimplementation, learning and reflection, and improvement, with a focus on rapidexperimentation and gradual scaling up of solutions.

Small differences were seen between male and femalestudents in average strategy expression.
