It has been shown thatproject-oriented courses increase retention rates10-12, intellectual development13, and increase notonly students’ technical and design knowledge, but also their technical writing and researchskills14. In addition, project-oriented courses expose students to the broader context of engineeringdesign, and students learn best when experiencing the entirety of the content area through real-lifeexamples and working with and learning from their peers6, 15-17.Project-oriented learning and capstone design courses allow for the concurrent teaching of designthrough application and teamwork skills, which are needed for future professional success3,4,18,19.This teaches students the

After both activities and reports were complete, about two monthsinto the term, students were shown one of the videos during class. They were also directed to theother videos and encouraged to watch them on their own time outside of class. Once everyonehad an opportunity to watch the videos, a quiz was given based on the content of the activities,for which students answered questions only about the activities their group participated in duringclass.

a course that meets two times a week). This model of distancelearning inherently presents challenges to teaching and learning. First, there is an inefficiencyof instructor time, when time is lost while traveling (the instructor devotes three hours to teacha one hour class at the distant location). A dedicated distance room is required twice per week,and such rooms are in heavy demand and often difficult to schedule at our university. Finally,there is a potential for loss of engagement in the far cohort who views class through a screen,most often in lecture format, with limited interaction with peers or the instructor. However, themost compelling reason to adopt a blended course model by the instructor in this study was theopportunity it

The governing principles are as follows: ● Vision and understanding: The project must have both vision and understanding; one without the other will lead to failure ● Community empowerment: The community must commit in writing to governing the system ● Skin in the game: The recipient community must invest in the system

. Recognition itemsincluded “my advisor sees me as an engineer,” and “my peers view me as an engineer.” Onepossible reason for this finding is that graduate students may not view the opinions of faculty andpeers as related. Another potential reason is that they do not need to rely as much on theirperceptions of the opinions of others. Unlike undergraduates, graduate students may have otheraccomplishments or validations that serve as recognition, including engineering bachelor’s ormaster’s degrees, full-time work experience, or licenses.
