mastering these concepts, what we have not known is howtheir perceptions of engineering design have changed during the semester in which theycompleted the solid modeling course. In this study, we follow a cohort of students through afifteen-week solid modeling course. The identical web-based survey is administered during thefirst week and after the fifteenth week of classes. The survey is composed of several open-endedand multiple-choice questions that ask students what they feel are important attributes in solidmodeling and engineering design. Our goal is the development and refinement of a tool that canmeasure the progress of students as their understanding of engineering design evolves from arelatively immature state to a more advanced

Perhaps because ofthis focus on analytical thinking, prior studies have found that many students exit theirengineering classes with a negative affect towards the topics discussed over the semester and asa result feel alienated from their peers. Purpose: In response to these findings, an engineeringtechnical elective was designed to focus on aesthetics, to allow students to use their engineeringknowledge in new ways. This study was initiated to understand the influence of this course onstudent affect. Design: By examining the experiences and engineering identities of students insuch a course (n=29), this study demonstrates that these students not only begin to observeaspects of engineering in

Prior research on student understanding and use ofstakeholder interaction during the design process has found that students do not always interactwith stakeholders successfully (as outlined in the design practice literature).19–21 Some of thedifficulties student encounter when attempting to interact with stakeholders causes them toneglect or dismiss stakeholder interaction during design.20,22 Thus, more research is needed todevelop pedagogy for teaching these complex processes.This study sought

Their review suggests thatmodeling engineering design workspaces on visual arts studios would have a positive impact onthe learning experience. The pedagogy used in architecture studios is presented as a model wherethe open format encourages frequent desk-reviews of the works in progress.

, we seek to better understand the effectsof these changes on the senior design students.In Fall 2020, senior design students completed an exit survey to assess their engineering designself-efficacy, or belief in their own ability to complete design tasks. Self-efficacy affects aperson’s behavior, and those with high self-efficacy will put forth increased effort, perseverance,and persistence to achieve their goals. Since experience affects engineering design self-efficacy,there was concern that students would not achieve the same level of self-efficacy with theadjusted projects. This study examines how COVID-19 has shaped the students’ capstoneexperience and their resulting self-confidence. The study found that engineering design self-efficacy
