Learning through DesignFindings from initial field studies of this work have focused on better understanding informalexperiences related to design [30, 31, 32]. With regard to where engineering design learningoccurs, the literature points to various educational contexts that effectively deliver engineeringdesign education. The most common settings include capstone design courses, first-yearengineering courses, and other non-traditional classroom experiences (e.g. Virtual laboratories).Strategies that involve authentic and longer-term engineering design experiences tend to be themost impactful in terms of student outcomes and perceptions, however those experiences are notalways implementable at larger scale. More traditional educational approaches

the textbook or guide, design and layout shouldbe developmentally appropriate and students did not like reliance on the textbook, so programdevelopers should deliver content in an innovative manner. Students prefer adequate class timefor project work, and might attend meetings before or after school to have more access to freetime. Perhaps students could be allowed an EPICS study hall or laboratory option in theirschedule. Students want engagement with other communities doing similar projects. Theywanted “more communication between groups working on similar projects.” They also wantedto interact with EPICS alumni who are “now living an engineering lifestyle.” We have not yetresponded to either of these suggestions with program level changes

Enrolled graduate students areexpected to first obtain a Certificate in BME through one or two semesters of full time study (12units), a Diploma is issued after two to four semesters (24 units total), and finally a Master’sdegree after four to six semesters (48 units total). Students may leave the program at any ofthese stages with what is anticipated to be a useful credential for work in the emergingbiomedical industry. Typical courses are 2 or 3 units, where 1 unit represents at least 15 hours ofcontact time, and up to 25 hours if the course includes a laboratory or design component. TheMaster’s degree does not require a thesis, but it does require a 6 unit

However, their conclusions were explainedby good students being both motivated to take voluntary quizzes and likely to do well onexams. Brothen and Wambach (2001)8 cautioned that mandatory quizzes only improve examperformance if students employ an efficient strategy of using the quizzes to test their ownknowledge of the material, rather than attempting to use the quiz to learn the material.Furthermore, a set of precautions were suggested by Angus and Watson (2009)20 forsuccessful administration of periodic

The project was sponsored by an officefurniture company looking to bring a new line of “impromptu” seating options to market.Students worked individually on their designs and met informally with the instructor (Gary)during a 6-hour studio session each week. Students could also use a fabrication laboratory tobuild prototypes. Most design reviews occurred in the student workspace – a busy classroomspace with two back-to-back rows of tables with multiple computer displays and workspace foreach student (often cluttered with sketches, foam models, and other objects). There were fivedesign reviews: (1) a one-on-one review at the front of the room where students laid outpreliminary concept sketches to discuss
