Figure 3 - Team Performance Curve (image from: Design for Electrical and Computer Engineers [5])Once the team members had an opportunity to get to know each other, the real team work began.The team held a formal meeting in one of the Purdue University Electrical and ComputerEngineering Technology laboratories that was equipped with a chalk board, multiple computersand an overhead computer projector. This environment allowed the students all the resourcesthat they needed to exchange ideas, create diagrams, and perform research. The faculty coachesof the team outlined the Darwin21 challenge and rules, and

Such project-based learning opportunities are commonlyemployed in senior design courses as a culminating experience but are typically heldindependently within each discrete discipline or department. While this simplifies theadministration of the courses, it foregoes the opportunity for multidisciplinary collaboration.Upon graduation and gaining employment, students are likely to find themselves on a projectteam that integrates people of varied engineering disciplines and educational backgrounds.

Practical activities, such asmodeling aquifer recharge and measuring water flow rates, allow students to simulate naturalprocesses like infiltration, capillary action, and groundwater movement. These experimentsdemonstrate engineering principles in action and encourage students to design prototypes for waterconservation technologies, including artificial recharge systems and irrigation networks.

infrastructure. Figure 1: Utility Involvement in microgrids2Although the power industry adopts the advanced technology of microgrids into theirinfrastructure, universities have fallen behind. Universities primarily teach electric machines andpower system analysis with the assumption that the grid remains largely electro-mechanicallycontrolled. This results from a lack of modern power systems equipment and accompanyinglaboratory material to teach its use. The protective relays in laboratories typically don’t utilizemicroprocessors, making modern control and protection schemes hard to teach. While theindustry has adopted new technologies to address problems associated with centralizedgeneration, a new wave of electrical engineers

An example supporting the incorporation of continuous improvement into an existingrequirement at PUC is a change made in the process of documenting faculty annual reports in theManufacturing Engineering Technologies and Supervision (METS) department. This changeadjusted the traditional practice of preparing a faculty annual report which was based on simplylisting the yearly activities undertaken in support of service, scholarship and teaching. Thechange required each faculty member to identify goals along with strategies for attaining them.The list of activities generated over the course of the year is then organized to support thestrategies for attaining the goals. This adjusted format encourages faculty members to not onlylist their
