We have modified a Conceptions ofDesign Instrument7 that encompasses a broad range of design activities to be sensitive tostudents’ design experience with a simulated engineering design environment (Energy3D). Wehypothesize, based on previous research8,9,10 that students’ post-test responses would show achange towards more informed design behaviors.Research QuestionsThis research seeks to understand:RQ1: What design activities became MORE important to students after a design project?RQ2: What design activities because LESS important to students after a design project?RQ3: After a design

The creation of the online course from the existing in-person, on-site course afforded anopportunity to take advantage of reconsidering the delivery of both the theoretical content andthe practical hands-on component. The conversion of an in-person course to an onlineasynchronous course requires more than simply capturing in-class video and making it available.For the Anytime-Anywhere Engineering Experimentation course, we used a learner-centeredapproach to course design. We employed a backwards design model in the creation of the coursecontent.

Theylearn that ideas not expressed in a communicable medium will exist in the designers’ minds alone.I demand that they sit and focus on generating ideas for 20 minutes at a time, no more. I tell thestudents that probably 75% of their ideas are going to be sub-par, but that’s normal. So, only oneout of four ideas will be developed into a final solution.During the final development toward the solution, students are instructed to pay close attention tothe designs that they thought would never work; they learn that pieces of these designs maybecome parts of

Taking a hint from Star Trek: The Next Generation, this invention would scan any object that one may have; say, a gold ring. From the “raw materials“ bin of the device it would use the raw material (e.g., dirt) that is given an exact copy of the same gold ring would be produced. This device would
