We aim to understand how instructors balanceanalytical skills, creativity, and detailed design in course activities. This work also investigateshow students apply prior knowledge of the design process and how their understanding of thedesign process is further shaped by their experiences in the mechanical design course. We alsoaim to elucidate where faculty and students hold differing perceptions of what course activitiesare considered design work and where design concepts might be obfuscated by an activity orclass structure. Understanding these perceptions can help faculty reflect on their course

when faced withcomplex problems they have to agentively solve, this shows that these students can successfullydo design work to frame and conceptualize large and difficult problems.There are several limitations to this work. The primary limitation lies in the differing number ofcredit hours between the two courses. This is reflected in students in the CCEE course havingmore accurate calculations when analyzing their data collected in the lab, and having moreprofessional presentation slides. However, these results show that even a 1-credit class allows fornuanced design work from first-year engineers. The sample size for this study is also relativelysmall, limiting universalizing due to small-scale statistics.AcknowledgmentsThis material is
