for Engineering Education, 2020 A Hybrid Approach to Team-Forming for Capstone Design ProjectsAbstractOne of the challenges for capstone design instructors is forming equitable, balanced, andappropriately-skilled student teams to work on projects for a year. For most capstone programs,there are three main parts of this process: identification of projects, presentation of projects tostudents, and selection of student teams. This paper focuses on the third part: While there issignificant useful research about the best ways to form student teams, capstone design teamformation has unique aspects that are not directly addressed by much of the prior work. Inparticular, what is the best approach for team-forming when the participants have

This project is grounded in Butler andCartier’s SRL model, which describes the interplay between affect, motivation, cognition, andmetacognition within academic engineering design activities. Dym & Little’s design processmodel was also used as sensitizing theoretical framework.

In SDP’s, students are expected to put intopractice their engineering competences to solve a realistic problem. Realism is pursued by settingup boundary conditions that mimic to some extent those found in the corporate world. For example,projects are defined by an external company that acts as a sponsor or client, last between one andtwo semesters, are carried out in teams, and, in some cases, are vaguely defined. Moreover,students are

Two student surveys and one end-of-quarter grading rubric are used to assess the merits of the coupled course design through thefirst quarter of a three quarter capstone series. Results of the surveys show that the SMCCcourse structure resolves student meeting scheduling problems by mandating attendance andretains departmental rigor by having advisors directly assigned in the departmental capstonecourse.

objective of the present paper is to describe students’ self-regulation while workingon their senior capstone design projects. The specific focus of this study was to understand howstudents manage their projects with their teammates on three major issues: Team Management,Resources Management and Time Management. Quantitative data associated with student Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) on project management were collected using our Engineering DesignMetacognitive Questionnaire (EDMQ) survey instrument. Three hundred and fourteen studentsparticipated in the study. Data collected were evaluated quantitatively by comparing the meanvalue of each item from the same project-management-related issues (i.e., teamwork, time, andresources) across SRL episodes
