A recommendation was design education innon-design disciplines could lead to exploration and creative design solutions. For example, Wang(2007) discussed the effect of employing multimedia courseware in inspiring the creative thinkingof engineering students. He concluded that it is possible to improve individuals’ creative capabilitythrough training. To adapt to the socioeconomic environment, Haen et al.

virtual learning in 2020. After returning to on-campusactivities, these kits continued to be used to enable open-ended group projects, hands-onhomework assignments, and pre-laboratory exercises. We developed an affordable multi-courseelectronics kit by condensing three current hardware kits in the Circuit Analysis, Mechatronics,and Design Methodology courses. By removing redundant components and replacing expensiveparts with cheaper alternatives, we reduced the cost of the condensed kit by approximately 30%compared to purchasing the three course-specific kits. To support the kit usage, we created anonline repository with electronic safety, microcontroller tutorials, basic hardware and softwareinstruction, and coding examples. We developed a pre
