Mahmud, Apel – Advances in Engineering Education, 2020
This paper discusses the experience of online studio activities for a second year project project-oriented design-based learning (PODBL) unit. The experience of delivering campus-based studio activities through an online platform, to a design a small power system, is shared due to COVID-19 restrictions. The student experience is benchmarked with…

Hoffenson, Steven; Fay, Brendan – Advances in Engineering Education, 2021
In product design, there is often a disconnect between the engineers creating the product and the marketing team determining the best characteristics for the product. The research areas of "design for market systems" and "decision-based design" seek to bridge that disconnect through quantitative approaches that facilitate…

Tang, Shensheng – Advances in Engineering Education, 2014
Microcontrollers is a required course in most Electrical, Computer, and Mechanic Engineering (Technology) programs at U.S. universities. Most engineering courses (e.g., microcontrollers), by nature, introduce abstract concepts, definitions, and models, and use primarily lectures and readings (words, symbols) to transmit information. This…

Chesler, Naomi C.; Arastoopour, Golnaz; D'Angelo, Cynthia M.; Bagley, Elizabeth A.; Shaffer, David Williamson – Advances in Engineering Education, 2013
Increasingly, first-year engineering curricula incorporate design projects. However, the faculty and staff effort and physical resources required for the number of students enrolled can be daunting and affect the quality of instruction. To reduce these costs, ensure a high quality educational experience, and reduce variability in student outcomes…
