We showed previously that a project-based design course is associated withimprovements in both of these constructs without overt training in either. We sought todetermine

Considering this benefit, industries arelooking for methods to reduce overall energy consumption and maximize the sustainability ofproducts and processes. Achieving this goal is a complex and gradual process and will require adifferent design methodology. Both industry and government bodies have made energy savingand energy efficiency a priority in all future operations. In academia, this awareness is leading tovarious curriculum reform.

Intro 160 covers thesame topics as Intro 101 in a lecture format, but also includes this hands-on lab. Due to itspopularity, the course has expanded to serve almost one thousand students per year.

As there are multiple feasiblesolutions, students need to evaluate each option, make decisions, and deliver a solution. Thisprocess guides students to use their analytical skills to solve real problems. Previous endeavorsinclude incorporating an open-ended project (delivering a prototype at the end of the semester),into a junior level course to prepare students for the capstone project.7 The outcomes showed thatstudents appreciated this experience with positive feedback
