In Marlor’s [1] project-based course in amechanics & statics curriculum, attention was paid to the necessity of hands-on and intuitivedesign experiences in the early phase of students’ learning development [7]. In Ulseth et al.’s [2]engineering design course, emphasis was given to the creation of student experiences aiming atthe development of skills for effective teamwork. Thomas et al.

Unfortunately, I’ve found that, on occasion, my teammate did not have the same thought process as I did. The last comment above, and those immediately below, show many students found working with a partner motivated them to prepare as well as they could for the quizzes.  In my case, i felt more of a responsibility to do well on the quizzes, because it was not only my grade being affected, but someone else’s grade as well  I believe that the quizzes helped motivate me to work the practice problems because when taking a small group quiz you have to be able to help your partner(s).  When we

In 2008, the same group led a study abroad tour to northern Italy (Guzek F, Brockway K,Brockway T, and Guzek, S. 2013). These SIFE international activities continued with trips toMexico and a return to France. Thirty-two students participated in the first four
