neutral and 5 was strongly agree. To relate theresults from the surveys to the students, rating ranges were adopted directly from Holland et al.(2010). There were three ranges. Any “below average” range (score of a 3.0 or lower) was notdeemed a successful outcome of team performance. A value between 3.0 and 4.0 was consideredpositive, but not highly impactful on positive overall team performance. Finally, any score with avalue of a 4.0 or higher was a success resulting in teams functioning at a top (high) performancelevel. Similar survey development has been utilized in engineering education in the past (McGourtyet al. 1998), yet not in the same context of technology supported multidisciplinary teams with fourdistinct technical options.

of these engagement methods,students’ collaboration plays a great role, however, there are only few studies are available on an effectiveteam formation method. The team integration and level of collaboration will directly affect the quality ofthe end-product as well as the amount of learning through the process. An effective team formationmechanism in Science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) programs is vital to create astrong collaboration among students and to maximize learning. In this paper, a preliminary study has beenperformed to investigate a possible route to build an effective collaboration among students by changingthe traditional paradigm “cheating on in-class Examinations” into a possible productive team work arena

Because of their cheaper cost, UASs can also be used as the entrypoint for many advanced concepts in aerospace engineering. However, academia and industryhave not seen proportionate increase in the number of students pursuing studies for advanceddegrees or entering the workforce in the area of UAS technologies.
