year engineering courses. Four faculty, two from the computer science department and twofrom the FYE program, are taking part in this second iteration of the initiative, resulting insubstantial changes to the way they teach and assess their students. During the planning process inthe summer 2015, it became evident that while these courses offered opportunities for students towork on projects, tools for assessing the students’ thinking were not extensively used. Specifically,prior to TH!NK while student artifacts were assessed, the design processes themselves were notassessed, and therefore students only received constructive feedback on work products, not workprocess. With the required TH!NK course revisions, there is an opportunity to improve

In the first part, the students assembled a common electromechanical platform—anopen-source replica of the Mars Perseverance rover—to enhance their build and troubleshootingskills. Once the rover was complete and operational, the second part of the course required thateach team propose, design, construct, and test an electromechanical modification to the baserover.

an Introduction to Design course. These modules enabled students to experience and practice effective teaming skills through role- playing. The modules focused on how to act and how to respond to promote psychological safety on design projects. Each module was tailored to a different phase of the design process. The themes of the three modules are (1) treating every idea as having potential to contribute to a positive outcome, (2) questioning an idea to obtain valuable insight, and (3) applying the brake to improve a decision. To explore the impact of the modules, we deployed a post-course survey to measure students’ perceptions of psychological safety on their project teams.

accepted academic definition is from Bringle & Hatcher [8, p. 112]: “Course-based, credit bearing educational experience in which students participate in an organized serviceactivity that meets identified community needs, and reflect on the service activity in such a wayas to gain further understanding of course content, a broader appreciation of the discipline, andan enhanced sense of civic responsibility”. In 1995, the Engineering Projects in CommunityService Program (EPICS) became the first service-learning program integrated intoan engineering curriculum, which provided an innovative educational experiencefor engineering undergraduates at Purdue University [9]. Service-learning has since stronglyemerged as an important complement to
