”.Engineers and non-engineers alike widely characterize engineering as a discipline whose purposeis to “solve problems”, and this is often framed as “design”1. Despite movements since at leastthe 1990’s to reform engineering education to integrate design throughout the curriculum,including during the freshman year, engineering curricula remain dominated by “linear” and “topdown” models that postpone the introduction of design. In this standard model, basic math andscience (“analysis”) courses are given during the first two years, followed by application of thisknowledge to conduct basic engineering analysis during the second and third years, andculminating in engineering design (e.g., capstone design projects) during the last year2, 3.

). The voltage at the phototransistor’s collector is typically on the order of Page 25.1351.5100’s mV. The noninverting operational amplifier is used to raise the PPG signal to a couple ofvolts to trigger the audible indicator placed at the circuit’s output node.Table II attempts to concisely capture the connections between the PPG circuit and the standardcourse concepts. The two circuit elements of the PPG circuit that were not discussed in EELE201 prior to the introduction of the project circuit are the LED and the PT and thus requireadditional discussion as to how their introduction into the course may be justified. One of theconcepts
understanding of the desired endoutcomes. 2. Mentoring and Learning StageCISTAR. In addition to having an academic faculty and graduate student(s) mentoring the REMstudents on their research project, CISTAR leverages two Purdue engineering programs thatintroduce students to research: Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship program(https://engineering.purdue.edu/Engr/Research/EURO/students/about-SURF) and the PathwaysScholar program (how a graduate degree can prepare you for different career pathways). Thus,the REM students are part of a wider research program with other undergraduates from acrossthe U.S. and from different countries. CISTAR hires, as well, several near peers who areengineering graduate students to help the REM students be

Moreover, these effects aresensitive to operational conditions such as temperature, light intensity, electrical bias,and mechanical stress, as well as device design and materials characteristics related to Page 24.1091.4impurities, oxidation, precipitates, grain size and texture, dislocations, and many typesof defects. All of these effects vary over the area and surface(s) of the solar cell, and 3captured images of solar cells reveal, either directly or indirectly, the spatial distributionmap of

, surpassing what autoethnographers can achieve in solitary endeavors [15]. Within CAE, researchers have theflexibility to switch between collaborative group work and individual solo work [15]. Thisalternating approach enriches the collective work by adding depth and texture. During groupsessions, individual voices undergo close examination within the community, benefiting fromothers' questioning and probing, which enhances the personal interrogation process [15].Subsequently, researchers retreat to engage in individual meaning-making, honing theircontributions. The goal of CAE is to move away from the idea that the research and theresearcher(s) are separate, fostering new connections with the research project, and beyond [15]. Hence, CAE
