: Do the students view the group processing exercises as useful or effective?Course ContextIn a first-year engineering course at a Midwestern university, students design prototypes for atarget client. The course is structured to provide students with support to guide their design andbuilding process. However, the students often need timely guidance to resolve issues with teamfunctioning. Built into the course curriculum are required meetings between student teammembers and discussions about equitable division of labor. However, while the instructor is theprimary resource for solving internal team conflicts, the instructor may not be privy to theinternal dynamics of all student teams.InterventionThis study aimed to introduce a new team

The course work is so rigorous thatengineering students study at least 5 hours more than any other major, with the national averagebeing at 19hrs a week. There are many schools in the US, however, that recommend theirengineering students study 35+ hours a week outside of their normal class hours [3].

This resistance consisted partly of technical objections raisedmainly by teachers of core subjects such as mathematics, physics and chemistry, among others,who being unfamiliar with engineering problems were reluctant to support and integrate theprojects. On the other hand, there was also behavioral resistance from those teachers alreadyaccustomed to a routine of ready-made lessons who did not want to leave their comfort zones todevelop and implement new classes integrating the specificities of each

that teams consist of members with differing personalities, to promote studentcompatibility. However, some design programs have found the method employing personalitytesting can lead to a greater incidence of internal team conflict, when compared with teamsformed on the self-selection approach [3]. Student–selected teams have, in some instances, beenfound to perform better because such teams commonly display a greater level of student passionand commitment to the design task at hand [4].An aspect of the capstone design experience that is frequently unanticipated on the part of thestudents is team conflict [5]. There are a variety of reasons that conflicts arise within anengineering design team, ranging from personality conflicts and poor
