with experts in the field. Progress on the research and design movedfaster than we anticipated, and we were able to fully manufacture and test an HET by the end ofthe semester.This process convinced us of the potential of projects like these for application-based education;because it was self-driven, we were intrinsically motivated to learn all of these concepts out ofnecessity. In this paper, we aim to provide clarity for the process of designing and building asmall, low-power HET as a self-directed project.2 Project outline2.1 Team formationThe core project team consisted of three undergraduate sophomores and one undergraduatesenior, with academic advisement from an Associate Professor of Applied Physics, RebeccaChristianson.

It is intended that the projectcomplements the prior works of the other educators in improving senior design classes [9-12].Problem StatementThe project is to research and design the apparatus of the Limiting Dome Height Test. Thesystem will contain instrumentation that will obtain the measurement of the force applied by thepunch and displacement of the specimen as a function of time during the experiment. Using therecorded data, the stress-strain graph and subsequently the material properties can be determined.Design RequirementsThe Limiting Dome Height Test must be designed to the

challenges.1.2 Serious games for decision making under climate change Serious games can be defined as games or role play used for educational purposes,including in-person, virtual, and online role play [5]–[7]. In many serious games, players workcollaboratively to solve a fabricated but realistic problem [7], [8]. Serious games share a numberof common characteristics, including the ability to capture complexity, to highlight theimportance of effective communication, and to provide space for reflexive learning,collaboration, and dialogue [5]. Because of the complex and collaborative nature of decisionsthat must be made regarding climate change, serious games are often used as tools for climatechange adaptation and planning. Research
