Marissa L. Gray; Celinda M. Kofron – Biomedical Engineering Education, 2024
We have implemented a jigsaw framework in our biomedical engineering capstone design course by overlaying strategic consideration groups across our design teams. Collaboration in design courses is usually focused within a design team with some peer feedback, but opportunities to work across teams are often limited. The purpose of this teaching tip…

Sylvain Luc Agbanglanon; Thomas Lecorre; Vassilis Komis; Alain Jaillet – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
This study explores the relationship between collaborative dynamics, expressed through observed leadership behaviour, and skills. It is based on the mechanical design activity of six dyads of students (post-secondary vocational training), composed of 11 boys and one girl, who are improving an existing mechanical system. Actions are studied using…

Andrew Jackson – Journal of Technology Education, 2025
The design process is full of judgment, especially around successes and failures that occur through each iteration. Decisions about how to proceed when ideas do not work can be especially challenging for beginning designers. Yet, experts are able to demonstrate more natural regulation of the process. This research focused on the experiences of…

T. Claire Davies; Jesse Manzin; Maya Meraw; Deborah S. Munro – Biomedical Engineering Education, 2023
As students gain more experience with design concepts, they should progress from novice to expert design thinkers. The purpose of this research was to identify the constructs of growth in design thinking (DT) over short- (one weekend) and long-term (10 weeks) design challenges. A DT mindset questionnaire was completed by students in a third-year…

Kaygan, Pinar – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2023
This article aims to expand our knowledge on interdisciplinary design education by focusing on team development, which has remained a less explored aspect of interdisciplinary collaboration so far. An interdisciplinary design studio course, Collaborative Design, for food engineering and industrial design students in higher education provides the…

Ruben D. Lopez-Parra; Tamara J. Moore – Biomedical Engineering Education, 2024
The design of biological systems is a multidisciplinary activity in which biomedical engineers collaborate to build novel biological systems that address society's needs. One of the most relevant skills for designing biological systems is engineering systems thinking (EST). Among the EST elements, the EST cognitive competencies are comparatively…

Karen Miel – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Youth who are learning engineering while participating in design teams are also learning to manage design groupwork. This design groupwork involves negotiating and managing relationships with teammates and educators. The nuances of this relational work are underexplored, yet important to attend to because these intragroup interactions establish…

Sandra L. Pettit; Clifford L. Henderson – Chemical Engineering Education, 2023
Development of team skills is vital to becoming a successful and productive engineer. To prepare students for successful team-based work, they need a basic understanding of the organizational psychology underpinning teamwork and an introduction to tools and techniques to develop and sustain team effectiveness. The goal of this paper is to…

Steven C. Koenig; Gretel Monreal – Design and Technology Education, 2025
Purpose: Biomedical engineers that have the ability and skill sets to comprehend and retain basic anatomy and physiology (A&P) knowledge, apply fundamental engineering principles, use critical thinking, and communicate effectively across multiple disciplines to facilitate successful development and clinical translation of medical devices. The…

Anastasia M. Schauer; Jessie Liu; Christopher Saldaña; Katherine Fu – International Journal of STEM Education, 2025
Background: Even among women who persist in the gender-imbalanced engineering fields, women on engineering design teams tend to take on non-technical roles. Understanding the mechanisms that inform this phenomenon is important for encouraging more women in STEM in order to close the gender gap. Although factors such as self-efficacy, task…

Jessica Sperling; Menna Mburi; Megan Gray; Lorrie Schmid; Ann Saterbak – International Journal of STEM Education, 2024
Background: Students' academic self-efficacy maximizes likelihood for success and retention, yet prior research suggests that historically underrepresented (minoritized) undergraduate students in higher education and in college-level engineering show lower self-efficacy, which has been linked to histories of systemic exclusion. To address such…

Loh, A. P.; Law, Elliot; Putra, Andi Sudjana; Koh, Edwin; Zuea, Tang Kok; Tat, Khoo Eng – Advances in Engineering Education, 2021
A quick literature survey shows that Engineering education has been undergoing change since more than a hundred years ago, largely due to the needs of industry. The current drive for change is not very different and comes from the perception that Engineering graduates of today are not able to function effectively in the workplace. This is in part…

Thi-Huyen, Nguyen; Xuan-Lam, Pham; Thanh Tu, Nguyen Thi – Eurasian Journal of Educational Research, 2021
Purpose: In this study, we presented the Design Thinking model called DITC (Design Thinking in Class) and conducted an experiment during one month with 197 engineering students at Hanoi University of Technology (HUST) to determine how this model could aid in the growth of problem solving and teamwork mindset in a flipped classroom. Method: A…
