about engineering solutionsneeding to work, i.e. be economical and effective. Amy also mentioned that a completelycreative solution would not be achievable due to the constraints given in the problem. These statements suggest three key themes. First is that some domain knowledge relatedto a problem is helpful in allowing engineers to be creative. However, second, knowledge ofexisting solution(s) to the specific problem being solved impacts a practitioner’s ability to becreative. In this case they may not necessarily use their creativity to develop a new solution whenone is already known to exist and work. A third theme seems to suggest that practitioners mayfeel restricted by expectations, specifically that they are expected to develop a

Anexample of a helpful approach was to use noise-canceling headphones at work and listen tobackground music. In response to P4's story about leaving their headphones and how they becameoverwhelmed by forgetting their Airpods, users shared their suggestions and stories about similarexperiences. Most of them mentioned that it had happened to them before in the past and that theyhad backups for their AirPods. In several comments, users expressed the difficulty of workingwithout their Air pods. For instance, P24 said, "I completely agree with you. If I forget my earbuds,I cannot work.

synthesizedinformation of this study will answer the research questions of this systematic literaturereview. It is hoped that this study when completed will better inform the engineering communityof the current state-of-the-art of project-based learning in engineering education, the impact ofengineering education on students’ academic achievement, and recommend future direction forproject-based learning in engineering education. The study will also contrast project-basedlearning in the United States to other countries.References[1] Khan, K. S., Kunz, R., Kleijnen, J., & Antes, G. (2003).

graduate education for improvingtechnical and professional skills of graduate education has demonstrated that it has potential inaddressing the project goals. For this model to be successful, several requirements are critical. Asdemonstrated above, teams are more successful when effective scaffolds are employed to supportthe co-creation process. These scaffolds need to come from supportive and engaged researchadvisors of graduate students who can work collaboratively with an agreed-upon set of goals andobjectives for their students’ success in this effort. Throughout the project, mechanisms formaintaining and exercising acquired skills need to be provided. We also believe that it isimportant to identify the specific product(s) that co-creating

Scienceand Technology (Missouri S&T) implemented an Accelerated BS/MS Program in 2019. Whilethe university has long offered opportunities for qualified undergraduates to take graduatecourses during their last semester and to participate in research through various undergraduateproject opportunities, these options do not formally admit the student to graduate study. TheECE Accelerated BS/MS Program was the first such program for Missouri S&T and otherdepartments have developed similar Grad Track Pathways programs [7]. The programs havefinancial advantages and can reduce the time to obtain both the BS and MS degrees by at least asemester as compared to obtaining the degrees sequentially. © American Society for

Recalling the Likert scale currently in use, the 1–4 on the horizontal axis are as follows:agree (1), tend to agree (2), tend to disagree (3), disagree (4).Next, we look for correlations between responses to different survey questions and also to coursegrade. Specifically, we calculated Spearman’s rank-order correlation coefficients r andcorresponding p-values for survey questions 2–10 and for students’ course grade. The nullhypothesis is that there is no monotonic association between the data (course grade and surveyquestion responses). The results are shown in Table 4.
