teamwork, ethics, social context, and other broadconsiderations. The need to teach design has traditionally been addressed in Capstone courses.There is a trend to introduce design earlier in the curriculum such as through first-yearintroduction to engineering subjects or through required design “cornerstone” subjects2.A difficulty frequently observed in design projects is that students begin work too late. This hasbeen referred to as “time scallop” -- as deadlines are approached, effort levels rise rapidly andfall back to low levels repeatedly2. A challenge to implementing early design experiences inengineering programs is the readiness of the student population for hands-on design work. Fewstudents have been exposed to manufacturing equipment in

One topic that is not regularly covered is the pre-stressed concretedomain. Programs that do offer pre-stressed concrete frequently offer it at the graduate level where theemphasis frequently revolves around more theoretical behavior. Often missing, a critical emphasis area ofpre-stressed concrete, is practical post-tensioned (PT) concrete design and construction practices.

They next undertake integrated circuit projects thatinclude the design and layout of basic logic gates and differential pairs.

This pedagogy, or framework, may be implemented in whole or inpart in any engineering program.Building on this design pedagogy, we present the context of designiettes in terms of educational theories,the I-Engineering, and assessment.
