delivery – makingsure students learn statics or thermodynamics or transport phenomena – has only an indirectrelationship to professional practices; that is, the mastery of the content is somewhat removedfrom the ability to apply that content within professional work, and not all technical content(even “core” content) is relevant to all positions students may take upon graduation. The utilityvalue these capstone faculty address, however, is linked directly to job experiences andexpectations that most (if not all) students will encounter in post-graduation work.It is important to note that other utility factors also played into faculty decisions, includingmeeting goals set by outside companies, being fair to students/team members, studentinterest

In these cases, it's common for thefaculty members in these groups to be randomly assigned and receive the benefits of peerfeedback on their research [25, 26]. However, there is the possibility to get paired with people ofdifferent disciplinary interests and motivational levels. Despite a seemingly successfulbeginning, the lack of motivation, monetary benefits, and similar education or researchbackground still possess challenges.This professional development experience, an entrepreneurially-minded SOTL virtual writinggroup, overcomes these barriers through

That is why ateam is required. A team’s success is also strongly dependent on team culture. A strong teamculture relies on effective communication, vision, and trust [10]. While educators recognize theimportance of project management and team culture, simply relying on the capstone experiencefor students to naturally develop, practice, and master this skill set may not be prudent. Studentteams regularly fail to meet faculty members’ expectations in terms of project management andstruggle to develop a productive team culture. This deficit can be addressed in many ways butfirst
