to understand the existing technology, where the results are examinedto determine the impact and utility of the tool in design and as part of engineering designcurricula. A second experiment is also conducted with graduate students from The University ofTexas (UT) at Austin to further analyze the effectiveness of the tool on quantity and quality ofthe concepts generated. These experiments aim to demonstrate that state-of-technology designtools provide an effective foundation and platform for designers to generate a larger quantity ofconcepts, with higher quality and novelty. There exist significant implications on engineeringdesign education from this process. For example, the systematic mapping of the state-of-the-artin a field is an

The Electrical Engineering Technology (EET) program in the Department ofEngineering Technology at WKU has developed a freshman seminar course that meets theuniversity requirements and also introduces the freshman to electrical engineering. This courseexamines the different aspects of electrical engineering and develops the problem-solving skillsof the students. During the semester, the students study the history of engineering, theresponsibilities of engineering, professional registration, and engineering ethics. Students alsodevelop a foundation for problem-solving skills through various assignments. An importantaspect of this course is the
