different operation platforms work together as aswarming group; the organization and function of a swarming team is just like bees or ants. Theindividual intelligent robot can run in either autonomous mode or cooperative mode. Normally, there isone or more ground station(s) to coordinate and initiate the swarming team. The path planning andobstacle avoidance will become a part of formatted cooperative team work. The communication between the ground station(s) and individual intelligent robots has beendeveloped in a systematic manner in the past decade. However, there is no convinced and reliablephysical communication means between individual robots available. And the fact of that there isn’t anymethodology of information exchanging between

For the Analyze phase, a Pareto Chart and Fishbone diagram (Ishikawa) helpdetermine potential problems found prior. The Pareto chart takes the information from theFMEA to create a chart that illustrates the problems to show which are most important toinvestigate. The Ishikawa will allow for an investigation into the causes of the problemshighlighted by the Pareto chart. The Improvement phase involves creating a Value Stream Map(VSM) and an Implementation Plan. A VSM shows the flow of a process to create the productand strategize improvements to be made, found by the Ishikawa. The Implementation Plan is

The study analyses reflection journals from14 third-year material science and engineering students using a qualitative, inductive approach.Results identify four key aspects of problem scoping: (a) gathering information about clients,problem context, and the designers themselves; (b) setting goals based on gathered data; (c)developing solutions using divergent, convergent, and logical thinking; and (d) evaluating andmanaging design outcomes by reflecting on solutions by envisioning outcomes or creatingbackup plans. Both male and female students show similar approaches. Findings contribute tounderstanding students’ problem-scoping processes and highlight opportunities for futureresearch into engineering design education.Keywords

This can be successfully done if the team focuses onthe core product requirements while keeping the user and the system in mind.

Because it is askill that experts, in contrast to novices, routinely employ in problem solving, a key strategy inteaching learners to “think like experts” is to scaffold metacognitive thinking [2][9].While there are multiple ways of conceptualizing metacognition, a common frameworkdistinguishes metacognitive knowledge (MK), which includes knowledge of and beliefs aboutpersons, tasks, and strategies, from metacognitive regulation (MR), which includes themonitoring, planning, evaluation, and control of one’s learning [10][11].

Such evaluation issueswere not identified in our data sources.
