This structure is key to the design and organization of the course. Byreceiving consistent feedback from the OTs, the patients, and other engineering students,the team is able to continuously innovate and improve the orthotic brace design

Multiple studies, articles, and reviews suggest thatengineering graduates often have trouble when entering the industry and list a number of factorsthat play a role in that as well as suggest the sources of those issues. Yet, there is a limitednumber of publications that report the first-hand information and alumni reflections regardingtheir industrial experience.

popular hypothesis in engineering education is that variety is paramount (Felder &Brent, 2016). In attempting to achieve a variety of activities and types of activities in the collegeclassroom, instructors find that the different exercises and assessments satisfy distinctivelearning goals. Homework, for example, tends to provide students with repetitive practice, whileexams are primarily used to assess mastery. One overarching goal of particular interest here arethose activities and assessments that affect a student’s sense of self-motivation. A variety of in-class activities from hands-on demonstrations to eliciting class participation can be used to keepstudents motivated and to encourage them to investigate the topics covered in the course

context strengthens student engagement (Adams et al.,2011; Carlson & Sullivan, 2004;), problem-solving skills (Brophy et al, 2008; Crismond, 2001)and content knowledge in these topics (Kolodner et al. 2003). Pessimistically, hands-onengineering activities, devoid of appropriate math and science content, encroach on class timethat would otherwise have been spent on math and science instruction. Such pessimism is notentirely unfounded – elementary teachers have existing challenges in delivering strong math andscience content without the added pressures of integrating engineering (Ball, Hill, & Bass, 2005;Marx & Harris, 2006), and few elementary teachers have background knowledge or preparationin engineering (Banilower et al., 2013
