in engineering or a non-technical career, multidisciplinary describestoday’s workplace. For engineers this may mean working on a team of other engineers withdifferent specialties. Often times, however, it involves working with, or relating technicalinformation to, people with little or no technical background. For example, an engineer may beasked to give a presentation at a public meeting or may work with the business departmentregarding the economics of a particular project. As a result, engineering curriculums across thecountry are striving to prepare their graduates to better meet these challenges. But is it enough towork within the engineering community?

Groups distinguished several problems with the initialdesigns of the OneCar including “a distinct issue with staying straight” as well as “weightreduction” being another area for potential improvement. Additionally, in other groups reported alack of friction between the wheels and ground as an integral problem; which caused slippingresulting in loss of motion.

Since that time, additionalinitiatives have suggested that it might be even more beneficial to integrate the arts into STEMlearning, creating STEAM. Some even argue that it should be pushed even further, addingadditional study of the societal implications of STEAM research and work, further lengtheningthe acronym to STEAMS [2].

Chi has proposed that conceptualmisunderstandings arise when students incorrectly think of emergent processes as having theattributes of the causal processes they see in everyday life. [6] (Causal processes involvedistinct, sequential, goal-oriented events that have an observable beginning and end). Therefore,students may view the observed structure or patterns emerging from a series of events such asBrownian molecular motion (the result of an emergent process) as actually being the result of acausal process. They often incorrectly describe molecules as moving with intent in a linear andsequential process that stops at some point. Thus, Chi’s theory explains why students persist intheir belief that molecules move with

Design integrationfrequently means integrating learning from multiple instructors, degree programs, andinstitutions. This can be achieved more widely if design education outcomes rather than specificcourses become the basis for integration. This approach allows different institutions andinstructors to employ methods and courses that meet their needs while also ensuring that requirededucational outcomes are achieved.
