Design in Engineering Education
. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Collaboration and Design Practices in First-Year Project-Based EngineeringFostering first-year project-based learning (PBL) environments helps to engage students inengineering design practices and broaden their participation pathways in engineering fields [1].PBL collaborative design activities provide unique opportunities for students to develop,negotiate, and finetune designs. These design activities represent several engineering procedures,from planning projects and improving a production process to developing new materials [2].However, the collaborative design process in PBL is not well understood. Although researchershave conceptualized engineering design process among engineering

According to data collected in the project, such entrepreneurship practices wellenhanced the overall STEM learning experiences of students. As a design and development project, research questions in STEM-Inc frame formative datacollection and analysis to address aspects of the design that worked and others that requirerevision. Summative

bring students from across the country to auniversity campus for the summer. These students learn how to conduct real research in theirdiscipline by actually doing it, under the supervision of a faculty mentor. Many students whoparticipate in REU programs remember these programs long after the program is complete. TheREU experience of working with a faculty mentor on bona fide research is undoubtedly key tothe educational and career planning benefits that students enjoy. The best REU experiencestypically don’t happen by accident. They must be deliberately planned. Despite the importanceof this component of REU programs, minimal literature related REU social programs exists.This paper considers what makes a strong REU social program.1

Students will learn to work independently and to collaborate with other group membersas they conduct research in specific topics in energy research. This will enable them to understandtheir own levels of aptitude and interest in a career in science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM) and give them the tools to prepare for the next stage in their education andcareer development.

The students were given three additional weeks to refine and complete afinalized plan and professional scaled model. At project close, the students presented theirproposed designs for the safe shelter project to the professor and the community partner. Thecommunity partner offered valuable insight as to the most appropriate solution, and offeredsuggestions for further refinement before the project could be constructed. At the semester’send, the community partner chose which design best embodied the design intent, and onestudent’s design was chosen, see Figure 1. This design was the springboard to further explorationand study. Figure 1
