Design-Based Research MethodThe curricular development work for this project-based learning (PBL) program began in 2016[1] utilizing design-based research (DBR) as the methodology for both design and research.Design-based research (DBR) was adopted as the methodology to 1) address learning theories, 2)to study learning in context, 3) to develop measures of learning, and 4) to contribute to newdesigns and learning theories [2] for the program development. The work incorporates the fourphases of DBR identified by Kolmos [3]: design; implementation; data collection and analysis;and findings and conclusions. The DBR phases were adapted and combined with

Engineering is the foundation of our techno-human condition and deservesassessment not only in terms of manifest benefits but also in relationship to its own fragilities,threats, and global mutations.This point deserves reiteration. As Kristin Shrader-Frechette [13] has argued at length, there is apersistent tendency for technical appeals to experts and expertise to both underestimate risk.There is an equally persistent among technical experts to continue engineering technologies thatthey themselves assess as posing significant risks.

messages). Papers: Many students do not like to write. It is hard and time consuming to do well. The easy shortcuts include having another student write for them, copying or buying a paper from the web, plagiarizing from a book or paper. Projects: The great variety in types of projects precludes a list of common cheats. However the use of resources they should not use may sum it up. This might include talking to or working with other students, accessing information on forbidden sources (like asking for expert help on a website). Class participation: This usually involves some sort of attendance requirement that is overcome such as by having another student sign in for them.Some of these methods

In April 1985, the first 32-bit ARMprocessor implemented in the 3 ǂm process came to life. It was a 32-bit RISC machine builtwith only 25,000 transistors. This processor was used as the processor of the Acorn’s multimediaPC. A later
