strips the end portions of the wire to connect them to terminals, breadboards,other wires, etc. Use of an early wire cutter design (Figure 1 [1]) involved applying an unnecessaryamount of force to bend a wire back and forth until the wire was broken. This left a burr on thecut pieces that needed to be smoothed off with a file. Current hand-held cutters are much improvedfrom this initial design, but there are still concerns about the impact of the repetitive task of cuttingon the upper-extremity musculoskeletal structure. Using poorly designed manual wire stripperscan cause physical health issues over a long period of time such as arthritis, wrist tendinitis andother such disorders.

Two main issues identified via focusgroups are: 1) difficulty in peer collaboration in remote settings; and 2) insufficient time tocomplete in-class projects. The students’ feedback prompted us to improve the design of our in-class projects and also develop corresponding strategies to enhance peer collaboration. Thedetailed strategies were presented in the previous section.Conclusions and Future WorkThis paper focuses to answer “How to effectively incorporate
