-related projects. Such an observation was coherent with the findings by other educators11.It became critical to broaden their views of sustainability and sustainable engineering designfirst.Pawley et al. proposed to use six factors to evaluate an engineering project at the early stage12.These six factors were systems, time, energy, modeling, people and scale. They could be usedseparately, or in pairs to assess the sustainability related opportunities/concerns in a project. So, a6x6 table could be formed (see Table 1 attached as Appendix B) and an engineering design ideashould be questioned with respect to the factors labeled in the corresponding row and column12.It would be ideal to fill in all cells (except the shaded ones) with some questions

How do students’ thinking processes differ based on mathematics, design and engineering backgrounds?This paper specifically presents the findings and discussion in order to investigate the firstresearch question by providing evidence for the diverse ways that students respond to open-ended, ambiguous design tasks. Three objectives guided analysis of the data and will providethe over-arching structure of the findings section: (a) How do students use their first hour of problem solving in this design task? (b) How do students score their design and mathematical thinking abilities? (c) What are their pre-college mathematical and design experiences?Research MethodsContextAt a

They are then presented with a full set of previous data sothey can perform relevant calculations and plot pertinent information. This prelab data exercise issubmitted before the week “B” lab period. During the week “B” lab period, students run thelaboratory to generate their own data set. A draft A3 report is then submitted prior to thefollowing week “A” lab period.

Then, during the simulated experiments, the student collects data and later analyzes it. c. Emphasizing safety both as separate topics, such as general lab practices and radiation safety, as well as throughout the virtual experiments (such as a radiation

called for a shift in the focusof student learning in engineering design from specific content knowledge4 todisciplinary core ideas and practices2. This shift requires that educators, curriculumwriters, and researchers develop student learning experiences that share central aspects ofprofessional engineering situations – i.e., problems that are open-ended, ill-defined, andoccur within rich, socio-material contexts5. To develop informed approaches, thecommunity needs a deeper understanding of the phenomenological aspects of studentlearning and engagement that unfold in rich, multilayered learning situations6-8. In thiswork, we examine how students learn to manage “messy” design situations9, in whichthey must make assumptions, accommodate

The relatively low accuracy of the recognition is attributable to theKinect’s inability to cope with reflective surfaces which reduces the scanning accuracy.
