Given the difficulty that comes with the enhancement of a creative perspectiveusing logical-scientific modality of thought, a need arises to consider disruptive innovations inteaching-learning approaches for new engineering programs. In this study, engineering studentswere given necessary trainings in creative thinking techniques in order for them to comply with:(i
augmented by a clear connection to the student’s academiccurriculum. As Baber and Fortenberry5 state, “The use of the classroom must be re-examined in educating future engineers, broadening the curriculum focus to includecompetency development.” Similarly, for researchers at the Cambridge-MIT Institute6,experiential learning, like co-op, is most valuable pedagogically if it allows students touse in the experiential setting what they have learned in the classroom. Clearly, theresearch is now suggesting that, in order to increase the efficacy of the academic andexperiential components of the students’ education, classroom learning must be clearlyand methodically connected with experiential learning in the co-op setting.The need for a pilot
