They spend a majority ofthe semester learning the skills, developing the tools, and working to complete a functioningdesign with their team. The faculty work along side the students to aid in their success incompleting the required project. Until this past year, the design presentations anddemonstrations would occur in the last day(s) of class. Because of the realization that taking thetime to celebrate the completion of the project and recognize the accomplishment of the students,the faculty have been instructed to use the last

But PERT was developed specifically for projects with large knowledge gaps, scheduleuncertainty, and components that had never been tried before.In the remainder of this paper, we will look more deeply at all four of these practices, startingwith PERT, and present a proposal for combining elements of each to create a more realistic riskmanagement strategy to address the schedule risks in undergraduate capstone projects.PERTCPM and PERT were both developed for project scheduling in the late 1950’s.

Social exclusion in European contexts commonly refers to the exclusion of people oftenbased on class or socioeconomic status (The Social Exclusion Unit, 2001).

widerange of responses, varying between 3 and 12. Since failure and frustration are intricate elementsof the engineering design cycle, we wanted to know how these children dealt with these twonegative experiences. Dealing with failure and frustration can reflect how the children sawthemselves. For example, Sarah, rating herself at 7, thought of these two components as a way tosee what went wrong. To this effect, she said: “I get a little bit frustrated, and I'd see what I didwrong. but I'm not totally okay with it [failure] because I just get a little frustrated because I didit like a bunch of times, and still don't know what [went] wrong”.Eliot, rating himself at 6, said that he normally “get[s] mad and figure[s] out how to make itwork”.
