Indeed, given the projections2 that (1) the pace of technologicalinnovation will continue to be rapid, (2) the world in which technology will be deployed willbe intensely globally interconnected, and (3) designers, manufacturers, distributors, users willbe increasingly diverse and multidisciplinary; our graduates will need to develop these skillsto a higher degree.Despite this need, however, the engineering education has been observed to do the opposite,at least on enhancing creative problem solving skills.

This mini lab exercise will allow the student to research possible circuitblocks for creating flexible LEGO P-Brick/ECU architectures.The key to creating an ECU architectural lab project using the Hately/Pirhbai method isinteractivity. Another important criterion of an engineering education technology is the degree towhich it encourages "interaction" between the learner (the student) and the ideas embodied by theengineering education technology [3]. Using the LEGO P-Brick is successful as a pedagogicaltool because the student is engaged in expressing their systems ideas and knowledge directly withthe material, evaluating their design

Shneiderman a conceptual framework fortechnology-based learning and teaching has emerged as an engagement theory. 4 Thefundamental idea underlying engagement theory is that students must be meaningfullyengaged in learning activities through interaction with others and worthwhile tasks.While in principle, such engagement could occur without the use of technology, thetechnology can facilitate engagement in ways which are difficult to achieve otherwise.Thermodynamics together with other thermal-fluid sciences (thermodynamics, fluidmechanics, and heat transfer) are typically considered to be among the most difficulttopics taught in engineering curriculum.5 The Learning Tool described below
