response to a general agreement by U.S. industry, engineering societies,and government that there had been a decline in the quality of undergraduate engineeringeducation over the previous two decades [14-15]. The result was a strong push towardsproviding both intellectual and physical activities (such as dissection) to anchor the knowledgeand practice of engineering in the minds of students [16-17]. Product dissection was successfulin achieving this for several reasons. First, it helps couple engineering principles with significantvisual feedback [18] and increase awareness of the design process [19]. Dissection also givesstudents early exposure to functional products and processes, and introducing such experiencesearly in the students’ academic
