, students pitch proposalsfor a capstone lab project, projects are selected and then a list of them is presented to thefreshmen. Freshmen then rework their resume to apply to be part of the senior project they mostdesire. Senior teams then receive the resumes and choose four to eight freshmen they wish to“hire”. In weeks 10 through 12, freshmen arrange times to join senior teams to aid in thelaboratory tasks needed to complete the senior team’s final project.Homework: Individual students are required to turn in an initial resume, and a resumeincorporating the professor’s changes and tailored to the job they want.

Dedicated faculty and staff are directlyinvolved in classes and labs, and each degree program culminates with a senior design or"Capstone" project, which is required for graduation. Capstone projects emphasize projectmanagement, technical deliverables, and multidisciplinary effort in team-oriented, long-termprojects. As a result of the heavy emphasis on practical, applied, and experiential learning,students who graduate from ISOE are well prepared for careers in all aspects of engineering.

In this paper, the student responses from three semesters of freshmenlevel design classes are evaluated for involvement and self-efficacy based on whether or not a 3Dmodeling project requires the use of makerspace equipment.

The keydifference being that these are real projects and real problems. There is now an outside drive ofcompassion and satisfactions which motivates students to learn.
