On the other hand, directinteractions with users can help engineering students refine their understanding of their designproblem and keep user requirements in mind when generating solution concepts [7], [22], [23].In general, these previous studies have focused primarily on the outcomes of student designerinteractions with users. Few studies thus far have explored in depth how student designersperceive the role of user interactions in their design projects and how students’ perceptions mayin turn influence their approaches to these interactions.

our uncertainty (tolerance for ambiguity). In this course, students experiencedmultiple levels of uncertainty and instructors offered permission as part of the course design tosafely take risks, fail, and move forward. As a result, final products were much more innovativeand creative in nature than ideas presented at the beginning of the class. Students recognized theimportance of the challenges they faced (group dynamics, work dynamics, distaste for the coursedesign and overwhelming amount of group work, etc.) in moving through the creative designprocess.With that in mind, we look to student reflections, specifically those of the engineering students,to identify strategies that contribute to creative practice and to help students

Finally, we discuss our plan to implement assessments that account for bothstudents’ technical abilities and their application of course theories and concepts.Course development was supported at the Institution by a summer course development grant thatencouraged faculty to partner across disciplines to create unique course offerings.

: And for me I learned a lot about just if you set your mind to something, you can do it. I mean, I didn’t really know too much about cars in general before I started this project. I feel like I learned a whole bunch about cars just through the other team members. And then, beyond that, like I just knew that going into the engineering field now that I feel totally comfortable that I can do the job that they expect me to do. And so, I think it’s helped out a lot that way.

Goals and DescriptionsProgram GoalsOur engineering school is committed to creating leaders who thrive at acquiring and applying theknowledge required to solve global challenges. Using a variety of innovative programs andcourses, we teach engineers to tackle large, complex problems using a human-centered designprocess. These programs and courses emphasize real-world experience and outcomes, and ourstudents, from first-year to graduate students, deliver solutions to real clients while consideringsocial context and impact. Our programs teach students how to better serve society, and byoffering such opportunities, we help retain socially-minded students within engineering. Ourcurrent initiatives include efforts to not only add depth to our programs

Now is thetime for us (once again) to organize, to build coalitions, and to leverage all of our socialanalytical ability toward the effort of winning hearts and minds in support of the broad educationof engineers. What appeared to be consensus over EC2000 is now revealed to have been fragileat best, and we must work to strengthen and re-build this movement. I propose several ways inwhich the LEES Division can act as a clearinghouse with convening power to build coalitionsacross those who advocate for liberal education of engineers, across ASEE divisions, and acrossthe broader set of professional engineering societies, which comprise the membership of

Despite the differencesbetween Camp Invention and the Summer Accelerator, the positive evaluation findings fromCamp Invention suggest that week-long summer programs related to invention can demonstratepositive outcomes for students that mirror those seen in other STEM summer camps, as well asin year-long invention programs.

Once they arrive at capstone, they are commissioned to solve problems that don’t have anexplicit algorithm, list, or established process to solve them.Due to the real-world nature of senior capstone, in effect the students receive a blank sheet of paper,hearing “go figure out what the problem is –and solve it”.

With this necessity comes the need to designlearning experiences that encourage engineering students’ understanding of their users andstakeholders.

of essential notions of intellect, drive, and self-discipline thatcenter on bodily ‘normalcy’” [8]. Notions of engineering skill have assumptions about “capable”bodies and minds built into them [12]. For example, to be seen as proficient at circuit design andtesting in an electrical engineering lab, one is expected to have the manual dexterity tomanipulate centimeter-long resistors and capacitors and the visual acuity to see small details upclose. A students’ demonstration that they understand the workings of a circuit is often conflatedwith the physical act of circuit-making in the laboratory. In such instances, lack of physicaldexterity or visual sharpness may be interpreted as lack of proficiency at engineering tasks.Because of the
