Chalk, William S. – Engineering Education, 1984
Students in a senior engineering design course are given a routine design project typical of the first project given to a fledgling engineer in industry and a project more typical of what an experienced engineer does. Routine and nonroutine design approaches and instructional strategies used in the course are described. (JN)

Kardos, Geza – Engineering Education, 1983
Strategies used in introducing a case study to students in an interdisciplinary design course are presented, outlining what and how students can learn from the case. The entire two-part case, "Problem of the Perverse Pinion," (a consultant's view of the failure analysis of an automotive starter pinion) follows this article. (JN)

Nevill, Gale E., Jr.; O'Connor, John A. – Engineering Education, 1972
Describes an experimental design course for engineering and art students based on the concepts of creativity and innovation. Class involvement was encouraged and groups of three people worked best with mixing of engineering and non-engineering students. Students expressed interest and enthusiasm for the course. (DF)
Descriptors: Art, College Science, Creativity, Design
Pare, Eugene G.; Kreimer, Borah L. – Engineering Education, 1979
A brief history is presented of the American Society for Engineering Education's Creative Engineering Design Displays along with some commentary from a student designer and a judge. (BB)

Alic, J. A. – Engineering Education, 1975
Views the teaching of materials as content oriented, while teaching design is process oriented. Advocates the integration of design teaching with materials teaching through design problems in which the materials component plays a large part. (GS)
Descriptors: Curriculum, Design, Engineering Education, Higher Education
Larsen, William L. – Engineering Education, 1975
Outlines one approach to the teaching of materials engineering design within the context of metallurgical engineering. This approach uses a problem solving situation and criteria for an appropriate problem are presented. (GS)
