. This goal is achieved throughengaging engineering students in design exercises and experiences throughout their academicundergraduate careers. The CASCADE project provides student support in an innovativeconfiguration of cascaded peer-mentoring. This program exposes freshman students to theengineering design process with vertically aligned design experiences through the sophomore andjunior years. Cascading vertically, undergraduate seniors mentor juniors, juniors mentorsophomores, and sophomores mentor freshmen. The objectives of the CASCADE project are to:1) infuse concepts of the design process across all four levels of the engineering undergraduatecurriculum (i.e., freshman through senior), 2) increase first-year, second-year, and third

ProjectIntroduction Engineering educators have an essential role in preparing engineers to work in a complex,interdisciplinary workforce. While much engineering education focuses on teaching students todevelop disciplinary expertise in specific engineering domains, there is a strong need to teachengineers about the knowledge that they develop or use in their work (Bucciarelli 1994, Allenby& Sarewitz, 2011; Frodeman, 2013). The purpose of this research is to gain a betterunderstanding of the knowledge systems of practicing engineers through observations of theirpractices such that the insights learned can guide future education efforts. Using an examplefrom a complex and interdisciplinary engineering project, this paper presents a case

This project is grounded in Butler andCartier’s SRL model, which describes the interplay between affect, motivation, cognition, andmetacognition within academic engineering design activities. Dym & Little’s design processmodel was also used as sensitizing theoretical framework.
