industrysponsored. Student teams face challenges when defining objectives for an ambiguous project,controlling scope creep, achieving buy-in, and selling their results to the sponsor. These areskills that are not taught in most engineering curriculums prior to the capstone course(s). Ourobservations are consistent with the observations by other researchers who have studied thedesign process. Wilson et. al 2 highlighted how students in the capstone course setting strugglewith setting milestones and soliciting feedback at the right times. Developing and effectivelycommunicating the project plan and status are critical to the success of the project. As noted byYildirim3, there is a need for understanding the relationships between design activities

projects described, a community in BuniaduVillage approached some of the UTG students looking for help powering their mosque. A groupof students went out to the site and designed a complete PV system meeting the mosque’s needs.The community covered the costs of all the required equipment. On installation everythingworked and was still working perfectly to date. Our hope is that this is just a small example ofwhat might be possible with the collaborative, locally funded, approach outlined here.Works Cited 1. Oakes, W.

Nilson suggests sometechniques to conduct initially before diving into the problem solving attempt, including 1)reviewing the problem and clarify meaning, 2) define the problem, 3) identify given knowledge,4) identify the knowledge needed to acquire, 5) set objectives [7].Research has shown that inadequate mental workload capacity may hinder learning throughoutthe problem solving task [8]. If a student’s workload capacity is low, then (s)he may lack enoughexcess capacity to encode new knowledge because lower level tasks are not being performedefficiently

This hascontributed to a decline in the grasp of the fundamentals of microcontrollers and peripheralinterfacing. Possible reasons could include the absence of the connections in physical sight of theuser when working with the MCU, or possibly the sheer magnitude of the device that the studentis working with. The fact that the students working the assignments have not been making thephysical wiring connections from the microcontroller to the peripheral device(s), because of themonolithic nature of the MCUs, may be contributing to this decline in peripheral interfacingaptitude
