Adult learning theory supports the positiveinfluence of student engagement, but this engagement may be different from universityclassroom settings. There is an abundance of literature that indicates student engagement in thelearning experience is important for student learning and other important educational outcomes.There is also evidence that the adoption of engaging teaching practices in professionaldevelopment settings is limited. Much of the research on adoption is done in K-16 settings,which fails to address the impact among a

National Research Council3 criticized undergraduate engineering curricula for notreflecting the shifting needs of the engineering profession by saying that these curricula are“lacking the essential interdisciplinary character of modern design practice” (p. 4). As a result,NRC claimed, engineering graduates are poorly prepared to utilize “scientific, mathematical, andanalytical knowledge in the design of high-quality components, processes, and systems”. TheABET Engineering Criteria (earlier called Engineering Criteria 2000) reinforce theseperspectives as has the National Science Foundation in the last decade.4Curricular reform efforts have focused on developing new paradigms for engineering education,including an emphasis on active student learning

100After the full text appraisal, the 36 results were classified according to six emergent categories by their keyfocus, as summarized in Table 6. The most common focus of papers on capstone projects was related to thestructure and experience of one specific capstone project, which implied that only well-designed projects werepossibly effective in accomplishing multidisciplinary engineering education. Particularly, there was also atendency to introduce system engineering in other engineering fields to contribute to a more reasonable designof multidisciplinary capstone projects [11-14]. However, only a few articles cast insights on assessment orproject work or student learning, suggesting a need for further research to identify which kinds
