Pre-College Engineering Education

Massachusetts, Boston c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Examining shared understandings of design artifacts in upper elementary school engineeringIntroductionWith the implementation of the Framework for K12 Science Education and the Next GenerationScience Standards in the United States, engineering is increasingly prevalent in the pre-collegeclassroom (NGSS Lead States, 2013). A typical way to incorporate engineering into K12education is through collaborative engineering design projects (NAE & NRC, 2009). This typeof project often requires students to present the group’s design work in a single representation,usually a co-constructed physical object (NRC, 2009). Though we

Although the combination of technical and “soft skills” can be an importantdistinguishing characteristic of biomedical engineers in industry, it is challenging to effectivelyteach students professional topics in an undergraduate biomedical engineering curriculum thatalso attempts to cover the breadth of engineering and life science topics that is the hallmark ofthe discipline.Recognizing the importance of professional topics, students are often required to implementthem in their culminating capstone design project. A common approach is to teach the topics inthe capstone design courses themselves, often by providing didactic sessions covering each topicjust before students

projected to the classroom allowing students to follow the stepscompleted by the instructor. Laboratory instruction becomes more complicated and morechallenging when the labs are conducted in an outdoor setting. Students often have to work ingroups, often in different locations. This introduces the following important challenges: (i)students need to understand the tasks they have to complete before going outside and (ii) studentquestions cannot be answered promptly because of the distance between groups. Both challengeslead to students making mistakes, having to complete steps or entire labs again, and experiencingdelays in lab completion. This leads to student frustration and an overall negative lab experience.The advent of head mounted displays

This includes knowledge of the entrepreneurship process and identification of relevant linkages between engineering and entrepreneurship. • SyE3 seeks to improve the art and craft of teaching entrepreneurship in engineering schools. This includes the use of case studies, simulations, and real world projects as alternative pedagogies. • Motivation to understand and engage in the entrepreneurship process.

As all eight teamsstudied were working on different design problems, our findings demonstrate the utility andpracticality of Design Heuristics across various design contexts. In addition, we found patterns inthe design teams’ general approaches to the design process, including synthesis, transformation,and abstraction. Seven of the eight teams showed some evidence of concept synthesis in theirdesign processes, but often struggled in synthesizing multiple concepts together.
