challenges within astructured design course.Shifting budget priorities within engineering departments has meant that a wide range ofinstructors teach senior design. Often, fewer full-time, tenure-track faculty members are teachingdesign. The gap is filled in a number of different ways: graduate student-teachers, adjunct faculty(particularly from industry), and professors of practice.With these drivers, it can be challenging to create and deliver a coherent design experience thatmeets all of these objectives. This paper will present the configuration, tools, and methodologiesof a senior design course sequence that addresses its large menu of objectives in a rational,structured fashion.IntroductionThroughout the Bachelor of Science in Electrical

design of the roadway (Deliverable 2). Each weekof the semester, students attend three hours of technical content lectures, one hour of homeworkproblem discussion, one hour of laboratory session to learn relevant design software, and one houropen to discuss their team projects with each other, the instructor, and teaching assistants (TA).In addition to the design project and homework, students are also evaluated through quizzes andexams. Thus, the course is a blend of problem-based learning, in which each team has to completethe design project, as well as traditional lecture-based recitation learning.Semester ProjectFor the 2018 edition of the course, the design project selected was the construction of a new tourismcorridor in Puerto Rico

contacted the Engineering Librarian to inquire if information literacy could be incorporated into the course. The instructor and Engineering Librarian identified an early lab report where students could use reference materials to verify or check the values they recorded during their lab experiments. Since this lesson plan was supplemental to the learning outcomes identified in other courses, it is an opportunity to reinforce exposure to literature in the discipline. • ME 349 (Fall Senior Year). ME 349 was the thermal/fluids laboratory course taken in the fall of senior year. Students wrote lab reports that included a full theory review, experimental setup, results, and discussion.

smaller universities.The added costs to staffing, research spaces, and enrollment challenges are barriers to starting arich course for aspiring students.One way to creatively support a Cardiovascular Engineering course at smaller, under-resourcedprograms is establishing collaborative relationships with other institutions. With the sudden riseof remote learning tools and the increased proficiencies in remote delivery, the bridge to developmulti-institutional collaboration has never been more accessible. While it is more common to seemultiple institutions collaborate on research, collaborative education can benefit all participatinginstitutions. The diversity of teaching and research experience can provide greater depth andoffer broader expertise

]. 2 An effective add-on to any instructional method are apprenticeship models, which offermany attractive benefits for educating students to build prototypes through feedback loops. Thecognitive model of situated learning—which apprenticeship falls under—engages experts totrain students (novices), often placing them in side-by-side working situations [4]. This format isconducive to the teaching of procedural techniques, such as laboratory methods, shop methods,coding, and culinary processes. Both the presentation of content and the participation bystudents are necessarily active and social in this educational style [5]. These types of instructioncombine explicit and tacit knowledge [6] and in doing so focus on the practice of what it
