This makes the application of these projects feasible, even in engineering science classes where course schedules leave little time for design education [3].Furthermore, this works represents one of the first efforts to systematically assess the value ofimpromptu design as a vehicle for engineering design education.The rationale for including impromptu design projects in multiple courses is grounded inBruner’s theory of a spiral curriculum.

The presence of this website leads one to believe that someengineering and engineering technology faculty members use real-world case studies.The advantages for integrating cases into any curriculum abound in the literature. These can begeneralized into four categories: 1) cases provide students with a link to the real world; 2) casesdevelop students’ critical thinking and problem solving skills; 3) cases develop students’communication skills; and, 4) cases involve
