APM is an iterative approach with ability to respond to issues as they arisethroughout the course of the project. In this approach, students performed a series of agile ritualssuch as showcases, retrospectives, stand-up meetings and iteration reviews.2. IntroductionThe implementation of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM) education has gained much interest in recent years [1-3].

Interestingly, although enhanced fabrication skills was a key learningobjective, no students indicated that this was a primary reason to enroll in the course, nor didthey view fabrication skills as directly benefitting them in either college coursework or in theengineering profession. Although they believed the construction experience might help with asenior capstone project, they saw fabrication as disparate from engineering practice, which theyviewed as heavily focused on theory and application. Rather, they believed the soft skillsembedded in the project – such as time management, scheduling, and communication – were thekey takeaways for

For working on this project, the studentengineers earn three credits of design and three credits of professionalism. The design creditsaccount for the actual engineering work associated with the project while the professionalismcredits account for the non-technical tasks associated with the project, such as communication,professional development and teamwork. One set of professionalism assignments, of particularinterest to this work, is to write reflection journal entries designed to support the studentengineers’ metacognitive processes and cement important learning.

A cross-disciplinary learning (CDL) frameworknoting that CDL facilitated effective learning which increased motivation and satisfaction ofstudents was presented in [5]. The importance of project-based interdisciplinary learning washighlighted by [6] asserting that entrepreneurial mindsets are significantly enhanced throughtaking interdisciplinary engineering capstone courses.Advancements in various engineering foci require interdisciplinary cooperation, yet studies havefound the lack of communication between engineers and other fields of study is often a limitingfactor in developing effective working teams.
