Hmelo-Silver and Pfeffer [8] found that novicestended to focus more on static components of a system, while experts applied an integratedapproach of structures, behaviors, and functions to solving a problem. Consequently, it is criticalto have a teaching and learning environment that enhances students’ ability to solve complex,real-world problems in engineering.The disconnections between industry practice and classroom curriculum calls for changes inengineering education from isolated and specialized programs to integral collaborative programswith input from multiple disciplines. One of the potential improvements to the traditionalsubject-based teaching-learning is to introduce problem based teaching –learning [9]. Using real-world

Ifassignments related to the design process instruction are not integrated with the stages of thecapstone project (i.e. are ad hoc assignments just to teach the principles/tools), then the studentsare burdened with doing the work twice—once for the ad hoc assignment and once for theproject. Again, this latter approach cannot assure that the project and instruction arecoordinated.The difficulty of teaching the design process simultaneously with the initiation of capstoneprojects was part of the impetus for our department to implement a change in curriculum thatamounts to a three semester capstone design experience.

Both an understanding of fitsand exposure to manufacturing processes may not be covered until after CAD instruction in atechnology program.Off-the-shelf instructional materials typically do not place a high emphasis on integrating DFMand DFA considerations into CAD modeling. It is typically open ended projects that provide thebest format for encouraging students to integrate manufacturing considerations into theirmodeling as part of generating a physical prototype. For this purpose, CAD instruction may becombined with some exposure to CAM and CNC programming that allows students to by-passmanual fabrication. However, this leads to a very heavy course content

To be fair, it also follows that assignments cannot have real depth. But they can be broad, and the can test the developing status of your engi- neering mind.
