In the referenced paper,successfully proven strategies relative to the collaboration of art and technology arediscussed, along with the results and outcomes of these strategies. Another article [13]published in Harvard Business review acknowledges the uniqueness of the applicationof design thinking for problem solving, focusing on empathy, experimentation, andcollaboration. This is just one of several articles that avows the benefit of designthinking. However, despite several similar studies, and despite design thinking’s ever-increasing implementation in various educational settings to boost collaboration andinnovation among students, there is little to no research/evidence on the usefulness ofthis

classes were used in this study, one section for online delivery andanother section for on-campus delivery. There was no pre-selection of students in either classand students had the option, during the standard registration period, to choose either section.Both classes held meeting times 3 times a week. The online classes were conducted over theInternet using network software that was specially developed by one of the authors, KurtGramoll [3, 4]. The Internet-based tool uses the Flash Communication Server and allowed real-time collaboration for drawing, lecturing and discussions by both the instructors and students.This research is part of a three-year NSF-funded project to develop and deliver Statics,Dynamics and Introduction to Chemical

open-ended problems. This concept evolved and eventually became Page 11.1114.2the capstone concept that we have today. A capstone course gives the students the opportunity tomerge the different areas of knowledge learned in their major studies and use them together tosolve a problem. For the capstone to be successful the experience needs to resemble the problemsolving that the students will experience once they graduate. This usually requires that thecapstone problem have some of the following characteristics: the problems that the studentsaddress should adequately mimic those they will encounter in industry, the students should worktogether

Continuing to grow the enrollment in theprogram will also be a primary focus, as the number of employer requests for graduates currentlygreatly exceeds the number of graduates available for work.

realization that what mattersis what students learn and can do after completing a program of study, not what the teacherknows or can do. This shift in understanding is reflected in the criteria that are now applied toschools by the various accreditation agencies2, 3. Increasingly, they look for evidence ofassessment methods used to measure specific educational goals, rather than just to provide agrade for a course.No single best method exists for learning assessment, but written evidence of a consistent andwell-organized process is advantageous, if not essential, for ABET accreditation. The methodpresented here can be helpful in recording, comparing, and consolidating the results of variousassessment means. While this method does not address the

There isoverwhelming empirical evidence that link these two fields, yet few researchers havestudied the relationship. This paper is not about the artistic and technical applications ofrecording technology, but rather the progression of music that has fostered theengineering feats of today.Music has motivated more than the heart of the engineer, it has driven the field
