realization process driven by its life cycle. In general,main problems in effective teaching of PRS are:1- many concepts are introduced late in the curriculum (during senior level courses or at the capstone projects)2- too many concepts are introduced in a short period of time (do not allow students to learn and progress based on their own mistakes)3- late introduction of PRS does not allow students to practice searching for unknown concepts and solutions (most senior level courses and projects are based on a concept of utilizing knowledge acquired in prerequisite courses)4- over-emphasis on ability of using mathematical analysis which usually requires having initial conditions and constraints (not often the case in real-word problems

Interactions between sensor networks and humans arealready judged controversial.Many Capstone and Senior projects by students are being done in this area. One recent exampleis ‘Outlet Power Monitoring Using Wireless Sensor Networks’9.The need for increased power monitoring in residential and commercial units is becomingincreasingly self-evident by the ongoing shortage of natural resources and rising costs ofelectricity. This need has been supported by recent government and private policies towardsreducing power consumption and better power monitoring. This system is one that implementsthese features by taking advantage of several new technologies, including energy

can be effectively andresponsibly integrated into different types of engineering courses.Regarding specific courses, we found that people teaching first-year courses reported GAI wasinfluencing thinking about assessment. This relatively high recognition might reflect thefoundational nature of these courses, where incorporating innovative technologies could play asignificant role in shaping early educational experiences. In contrast, Capstone Courses, oftenbeing the culmination of academic programs, showed a notable number of acknowledgments.This suggests that even in advanced stages of education, where comprehensive projects andpractical applications are prevalent, the potential of GAI to influence and enhance educationalpractices is widely

been pivotal in the development of structural programs to promote research inpredominantly undergraduate institutions [2]. This has led to an increase in undergraduateresearch programs at different universities over the last 35 years.Several models for undergraduate research programs exist, in addition to REUs. These modelsinclude capstone experiences, senior theses, internships and co-ops, course-based undergraduateresearch experiences (CURES), wrap-around experiences, bridge programs, consortium/project-based programs, community-based research programs [1], [3]. However, most of these programsare relatively short-term (i.e., limited to one to two semesters) and thus constrain how deeplystudents can delve into their research.Earlier studies

developing ‘creating value’skills have included exploring success via case studies, evaluating impact of biases, andencouraging students to define their own projects within capstone courses. However, validatedtools for such assessment appear to be less known within the community.While the 3Cs certainly have numerous educational techniques aimed at advancing each,additional assessments via validated tools would appear to be welcomed. Here we introduce theusage of an engineering design self-efficacy tool [7] as a means to assess across all 3Cs. Viamodifying the wording within this questionnaire, one can tailor to specific learning aspectswithin a course and establish a relation to at least one of the 3Cs. Here we use this tool to assessa course that
