It was observed that students completing the heat transfer course could seldom do this.The goals of the Thermal Design course state: "You should gain confidence in your ability to tackle an open-ended design problem in the heat transfer/fluid flow area and expect to solve it. You will also have an opportunity to take a heat exchanger through the product design cycle."In order to meet these goals, a project is used to provide a focus for the course content. This heatexchanger project has evolved over several years. At times an industrial application of a heatexchanger has been used as the project. The

More recently, hackathons have shifted to cover a wide range of issuesand many now focus on causes related to social good [7]. Hackathons have become increasinglypopular amongst post-secondary institutions, as they provide authentic, hands-on learningopportunities for students to gain experience with tools and programs used by workingprofessionals [6].

For the course project, the first-year studentswere required to design a 65,000 ft2 community park on a brownfield site in Charleston, SC, witha $5,000,00 budget for site cleanup and redevelopment. A few assessments were implemented,including weekly summary reports, poster creation, presentations, peer evaluation on teamwork,reflection assignment, and a survey.

In fact,autistic people who enter higher education are drawn to majors in STEM fields at higher ratesthan the general population [4]. To prepare autistic youth for careers, they can benefit fromexperiences that help them translate their interests into real-world applications through engagingin practices such as the EDP [9] and experiences that help them interact productively with peers[10].

For example, finite element analysis is used to identify how best to support and excitea structure to produce a particular vibration, and modal test results are used to establish “modalassurance criteria” on finite element simulations. This paper presents two laboratory exerciscs that demonstrate the importance of couplingcomputer simulations with experiments for mutual validation.

In reflection, the educational value of thisexperience may improve if the first submission were a draft that received feedback from thefaculty team and was offered a chance for revision. For the initial offering, because we wantedto simulate a “real-world” exercise, the additional chance for improvement was not included andthe student who made comments expressing an interest in providing revisions was reminded thatthere are not second chances for poorly written and presented proposals in industry.While simulating the “real-world” has value, the feedback received from CE students
