First of all, the graduatelabs were competing with the undergraduate department for space. When undergraduates came tothe campus to use the lab facilities for remedial work or junior/senior research projects, theyfound that they were not available on Saturdays. Second, there were many competing events on Page 3.15.7campus on weekends, and parking was sometimes very difficult.

The figure shows two paths of knowledge feeding into a capstone designexperience. Capstone design projects allow students to synthesize and apply knowledge gainedfrom their course work to solve real world problems in cooperation with local agencies,companies, and other academic programs.

It was recognized thatsome parts of the content in engineering require more time to be delivered and could not befragmented into Single Modules. Consequently, it was decided to have a choice of four types ofmodules, namely single, double, treble and quadruple modules with pro rata credit ratings. Thetotal number of credits for each academic year was recommended to be 120 made up from thecombination mentioned above. Therefore, the whole degree course would be worth 360 credits.It was stated that the four major activities for learning content are Lectures, Tutorials,Practical/Project

Implementationrequired only a small number of additional components and clearly demonstrated the utility of thisprototyping system, particularly in design projects. By using this prototyping system as afoundation, the students are able to undertake much more ambitious interfacing and signalprocessing design projects, without having to design the entire system from the ground up.The laboratory station retains all

Students must recognize the need for, select values for and evaluate the impact of the specifications inherent in a process subject to process and project constraints.3. Students must develop the confidence to begin the creation of a solution to a problem even though the solution path is unknown and to use the discoveries along the path to continue the development.4. Students must be able to develop solutions without extensive computational support.5. Students must develop the confidence to work with the

They are frequently part of multidisciplinaryteams where collaboration is vital for problem solving and project completion. In addition totechnical expertise, engineering demands strong interpersonal, leadership, and conflict-resolutionabilities. In the classroom, teamwork fosters the development of technical as well as soft skillsthat are essential for success in the workplace [1], [2].

Inthe new design, that is currently being worked on, this will need to be reduced to about 15.The design of the course for the scope of this work had class time being consumed by lecturesand ICAs while the project, homework, and FYAs all being completed outside of class.

The presentation is presented in-person for on-site courses. In the case of online courses, two different approaches are available.

To create that discourse for the problem-scoping dimension, as an example, the case studies found in open-access engineering casestudies libraries were appropriate for elementary students but not for the topic of problemscoping. As a result, the discourse was based on both accounts of professional engineers engagedin problem scoping found in design research and a collaboration with a professional engineer torefine aspects of how problem scoping
