Positive interdependence. This refers to the need to have every team member involved in achieving the group task. This is implicitly encouraged, because if any group member fails to do their part, the whole group suffers the consequences. 2. Individual accountability.

Traditionally these classeshave been the way into engineering thinking and problem solving. The problems that theengineering education community is facing is how to make these classes more interesting,expand students’ thinking process, bring in a more systems level thinking, and help studentsappreciate what is engineering all at the same time. The above challenges together with thetypical characteristics, behavior, and attitudes of the new students actually increase theimportance of the
