Many other courses follow this same practice, including the Intro toIE Data Visualization project, which was the first project included on students’ e-Portfoliosduring the first iteration of implementation, serving as a baseline for further e-Portfoliodevelopment considerations. It is key that students can publicly publish the links to their e-Portfolio websites, so academic integrity was a key consideration when discussing curriculuminclusion in the portfolios. This approach to project selection meets these conditions as outlinedby the CoE and the research team, and these conditions are reflected in the project selectionprocess previously outlined.

Interviews two through nine had them reflect on the previous week’sevents, and any ongoing design issues that they worked on over several weeks that were still thefocus of their attention. In the final week, the participants were asked to reflect on their overallexperience of designing that term, and what they learned over their co-op. Altogether, thisresulted in a dataset of 772 minutes of transcribed interview data, with an average of 257 minutesof transcript per participant.The interview transcripts were analyzed using an iterative thematic analysis approach [22].

It has beendefined in many fields, but it has only recently been defined in engineering as “subconsciouslyleveraging experience to assess a present situation or predict a future outcome[1]. Intuitiondevelops in engineering learners and is often reflected in the speed, automaticity, andengagement of information when problem-solving. Humans have a visual intuition for materialsand structures we interact with on day-to-day basis and an intuition for shapes and materials thathelps to negate flawed designs[2].

The more expensivedevices come with sounds and haptic vibrations to alert for possible detection. Unscrupuloussellers make inaccurate claims that devices prevent camera spying when, in reality, the devicesonly provide detection, giving their customers the false impression that a camera is no longercapable of spying on them.This paper presents a project by a senior capstone team of four students who aimed to develop anadvanced

A common practice of growing professional skill sets isto obtain internship opportunities as the industry is generally looking for applicants who are atintermediate or advanced levels. However, the first-year students generally would have few solidtechnical skills. Therefore, the research question is how to help first-year students gain essentialskills before they apply for internships and become future workforce [1, 2].
