These were good case studies to highlight some of the specific outcomes ofthe projects, such as ability to work effectively and efficiently in a team environment. Forexample, the faculty was able to identify the team(s) having concerns about functioningeffectively (e.g., particular team member not undertaking his/her tasks on time, certainindividuals dominating the discussions during group projects) and this was addressed in the classby
argumentation asone of its core practices in science and engineering education that should be developedthroughout primary and secondary school education. The National Research Council (NRC)wrote that “In engineering, reasoning and argument are essential to finding the best possiblesolution to a problem…. [S]tudents should argue for the explanations they construct, defend theirinterpretations of the associated data, and advocate for the designs they propose” [10, pp. 72-73].The NGSS specifically included engaging in argument and constructing explanations supportedby evidence in its middle and high school engineering design standards [1]. Argumentationfocuses students on the need for quality evidence, and the process helps students to buildconnections

manufacturability thatapply to subtractive manufacturing also carry over to other manufacturing techniques such asforms of molding, forming, and extrusion. By teaching what problems can arise when attemptingto manufacture a new design and how to address these issues, the proposed course will promoteproblem-solving skills relevant to design and force students to be conscientious about how theirdesigns will actually be produced.Over the course term, students will learn the fundamentals of computer-controlled machining, howto use CAM software, and key principles of designing for manufacturability. Through lessons inusing the full extent of Fusion 360’s CAM toolbox, assignments that gradually escalate with thestudents’ understanding of CAM, and a hybrid

The preliminary data in this studyseems to show that a cross-disciplinary collaborative teaching approach involving co-teachingand co-learning can assist students in developing competencies in these innovation skills.
