DukeUniversity. Over the course of a semester, students work in teams to learn and apply theengineering design process to a client-based problem drawn from a community partner. In thecourse, the students should learn to 1) apply the engineering design process to meet the needs of aclient; 2) iteratively prototype a solution using appropriate tools and materials; 3) workcollaboratively on a team; and 4) communicate the critical steps in the design process in written,oral, and visual formats. The course was created following many best practices in first-yearengineering education. This paper focuses specifically on how the course contributes to students’ confidence aboutthemselves as engineers, students’ understanding of the engineering design

I also really liked how the instructor formatted the homework and quizzes with how you had unlimited attempts for the online part but you still had to submit your work for those problems to receive credit for the assignment. The online quizzes and homework format also made collaborative work easier whenever it was allowed. • I appreciated that the online tests were able to be broken into smaller
