capstonedesign curriculum, the current two year research project was designed to implement and assessthe efficacy of the activities as an integral part of the course. IC activities have been incorporatedin the USAFA capstone design course previously, but their effects were not directly studied.Nevertheless, faculty observations and customer feedback suggested that creativity and productinnovation improvements occurred. Thus, sufficient anecdotal evidence existed to motivatefurther formal examination of the impact of IC activities on the USAFA engineering designprocess and capstone design course.Since the underlying conceptual process of the capstone design course and the DI activityexperience reflects the divergent thinking processes it is appropriate

significantly lowered theDEW rates for students over traditional delivery instruction. This supports the use of flipped andmixed methods to improve student achievement. Despite the improvement in DEW percentages,the rate of students achieving an A in the course was significantly higher in the mixed class thanin either the flipped or traditional sections. Overall, the grades reflected similar outcomes to theexams where students in the mixed section outperformed students in both the flipped andtraditional sections. This indicates that, despite some promise shown in the flipped coursesection, students in that section were still not able to achieve at the same level as their peers inthe mixed-delivery class. The reason for this outcome answer may be due to

Authorities integrate entrepreneurshipinto their discourse, which mobilized people.When the idea of entrepreneurship is present in the discourse of the highest authority, the ideaflows downwards and transcends faculty members, staff, and students. In our sample, the top-down model is best reflected at the PUC case. Here, the Ingeniería 2030 project strengthened analready existing emphasis already in the dean, increasing its importance among the facultymembers and other actors, who did not necessarily share the vision of the entrepreneurialengineer.

dates back to the American philosopher John Dewey who defined it asreflective thinking. Dewey defined reflective thinking as “…the ground or basis for a belief isdeliberately sought and its adequacy to support the belief examined” [4]. This definition evolvedinto intellectual abilities and skills by Benjamin Bloom who developed Bloom’s taxonomy ofeducational objectives [5]. Currently, P21 classifies critical thinking as reasoning effectively, usingsystems thinking, making judgements and decisions, and solving problems [3]. Critical thinking is important to develop in students. The Femineer® Program is able tohelp students develop critical thinking skills by introducing systems thinking into the WearableTechnology curriculum. This will

Especially, on Questions 3 and6, student percentages of ‘strongly agree’ are much higher at 88.9% and 77.8% than usual. Question3 is tied to an ability to design electrical systems, components, or processes to meet desired needs,and Question 5 is related to an ability to communicate effectively, illustrated in Fig. 7 (Zhao, et. al.,2017).

In general, all the students learned professional skills,such as communication and collaboration, while the undergraduates also learned technical skills,such as how to conduct laboratory work. In addition, the graduate students benefitted from self-reflection about their research routines and assumptions thanks to undergraduates’ questions andsuggestions. 1This paper investigates the

This frustration with perceived disorganization was alsoreflected in the survey comments from older students, including that of the 20-year old studentquoted above. They were more likely to find the active learning sessions, especially those whichdid not include problem-solving exercises, as “busy work” and unnecessary for their success inthe class and may reflect differences in motivational factors and preferred learning environmentsnoted by some researchers [32], [33].

PBL goes beyond the relationships between knowledge andthinking, helping students to both know and do. In fact, it is focuses on doing something andlearning on the way [8, 12-27]. PBL main features from the student learning point of view are:1. In PBL, a student-centered approach, the focus is on the student competencies to design and toreach the solution, around their concerns and skills, the end product being a reflection of them.  2. In PBL the students solve problems, through self-management, project management, andcritical knowledge are enhanced, as they manage the work, offering frequent feedback, self
