While the program had manyobjectives, a principal goal was to provide teachers confidence and then a means to incorporateengineering principles in their teaching of math, science, and technology topics in theirclassrooms. The formation of stratified teams was a critical component of the program. In total,there were X labs each with a different research focus, biomechanics, educational computing,sustainable energy, and organic electronic devices.By creating teams of individuals with different educational and professional backgrounds, weintended to foster cognitive diversity within the groups. Cognitive diversity as a construct islinked with increased outcomes [6]. One such outcome was the development of an engineeringinformed lesson plan

In effect, engineers and technologists assume two project development roles; project designer and project manager. As project designers they are responsible for completing assigned design tasks. As project managers they are responsible for defining a comprehensive and integrated plan which reflects overall development requirements and is aimed at achieving overall project success.

Inparticular, use of detailed work plans and periodically monitored time logs and version controlcheck-ins is examined. The underlying assumption is that students need to be encouraged to startprograms early

Assessment the Easy Way: Using Embedded Indicators to Assess Program OutcomesI. IntroductionThe culminating design experience for civil engineering majors at the United States MilitaryAcademy (USMA) is CE492, Design of Structural Systems. CE492 serves as a “capstone”experience or one in which students are faced with a multi-disciplinary design projectincorporating facets from all previous civil engineering courses. Previous capstone experienceshave required students to design structures planned for construction or currently underconstruction at the Academy, thus providing an opportunity for site visitations and activeparticipation with key players in the project development process. Since CE492 provides amulti-disciplinary

interested facultymembers wanted to learn making techniques and makerspace equipment to facilitate their classes(and for personal curiosity). The first semester (Fall 2017) involved faculty attending three half-day workshops to learn maker tools and instructional strategies to support the integration ofmaking and design. Workshops were held in two makerspace areas, 1) Bobcat Made - theuniversity makerspace and 2) The Make Lab, low-tech mobile makerspace in the College ofEducation. Upon attending the workshops, faculty were asked to develop a lesson plan thatintegrated making and design into one of their courses for the following spring.

For example, “If I havejust finished my 10AM circuits class, then I will go to the library and work on my calculushomework until my next class.” There is a rich body of literature in the field of psychologyshowing the success of implementation intentions, applied to things as diverse as exercise,impulse control, and overcoming addiction.
