The user guide explains how theproduct works. The library contains all the necessary puzzle pieces to build the product. Studentswill go over the user guide to understand the underlying product. Then considering what theyhave available in the library, students will design the product by putting the puzzle piecestogether. Once they come up with an

Shifting the course-centric mindsetFaculty are doing an about-face on courses to change the way students perceive and learnengineering. With transformations occurring in the integration and delivery of content –described in further detail throughout this paper – courses are becoming a mere formality in theECE department at CSU. Students still register and receive credit for existing classes, andgraduation requirements remain the same, but the course-centric mindset is shifting. Whenprofessors teach ECE topics in “silos,” or disparate courses, students feel like they are learningmaterial in
