engineering educators to make changes intheir curriculum to provide engineers who are career ready when they hit the workforce(Agrawal 2016). One possible such change is toward student-centric learning, which can take avariety of forms. The most common of these is experiential learning, in which a student learnsthrough an experience that either consists of or mimics a “real-life” experience, such as aninternship or an industry-sponsored project. Another less common student-centric tool isdifferentiated learning or differentiated instruction, in which some aspect of the classroom istailored to the needs of specific student groups.For years, experiential learning has been at the core of engineering education through capstonecourses, labs, and real

They outline a four-step plan for implementingservice-learning across the departmental curriculum including criteria for identifying a service-learning course, a mechanism to reward the faculty in relation to tenure and promotion, amentoring program for the new faculty, and guidance on student assessment.Jamieson et al (2000) elaborate on key features of the EPICS (Engineering Projects inCommunity Service), a service-learning program, that was initiated at Purdue University in theFall

In this paper, wefocus specifically on the impact of using student design competitions in capstone classes, andconceptualize it as an example of going beyond project-based learning and into the realm of whathas been called challenge-based learning.Background and Literature ReviewThe capstone course, which culminates the education of many engineering undergraduates,typically addresses a specific question or problem presented by the instructor, who acts as theclient or the real needs of an external client, such as an industry partner or local community [6, 7].Tenhunen et al.

Contrary to the previous study findings that used a similarpedagogical approach (e.g., Magana et al., 2021), our results were able to show that the use ofcomputer simulation in teaching electric circuits to college students was effective for science andengineering learning. On the other hand, our findings supported the prior research evidence that 8the effectiveness of these computer-aided tools depends on careful preparation, knowing, andimplementing the stages of use of the media (e.g., Haryadi & Pujiastuti, 2020).Further we also found that a

component of engineering education,methods of providing undergraduate students with a significant design experience varywidely among disciplines and faculty. Dunn-Rankin, et. al.[1] state the "design training,though somewhat ill-defined, is crucial to enable graduating engineers to contribute intoday’s competitive manufacturing environment." A key aspect of this dilemma is thatdesign practices vary by discipline and project criteria. In surveying 47 companies ontheir priorities in manufacturing engineering education, Mason [2] notes that "theimportance of hands-on experience emphasized by the survey is a break from atraditional engineering curriculum."At the same time, it is recognized that workplace experience is a key factor in enabling

Experiential learningcriteria are given in (Ambrose, et. al., 2010). Through experiential learning, students areconfronted with unfamiliar situations and tasks in a real-world context. To complete these tasks,students need to figure out what they know, what they do not know, and how to learn it. Thisrequires students to: reflect on their prior knowledge and deepen it through reflection and totransfer their previous learning to new contexts resulting in mastering new concepts, principles,and skills (Linn, et al., 2004).
