This project will take a research-informed approach to understanding how undergraduate engineering majors progress in their studies of engineering design. Its goal is to better understand and describe design expertise and a learner's growth towards acquiring that expertise. In this work, the investigators intend to undertake research in three areas:(1) The development of a continuum of design expertise as a way of describing learners' growth toward acquiring expertise, (2) A study of design expertise that will provide information to help populate the continuum, and (3) The demonstration of a research-informed approach in design education through the use of the continuum to enhance and assess studentlearning of engineering design during their cooperative (coop) experiences. This research should help us to better understand how students learn design principles in engineering, and the continuum, itself, may be of great help to engineering faculty in their efforts to teach design.

该项目将采用研究知情的方法来了解工程专业本科生在工程设计研究中的进展情况。 其目标是更好地理解和描述设计专业知识以及学习者获得该专业知识的成长过程。 在这项工作中，研究人员打算在三个领域进行研究：（1）设计专业知识连续体的发展，作为描述学习者获得专业知识的成长的一种方式，（2）对设计专业知识的研究，将提供信息以帮助填充连续体，以及（3）通过使用连续体来增强和评估学生在合作（合作）经历期间对工程设计的学习，展示设计教育中的研究知情方法。这项研究应该有助于我们更好地了解学生如何学习工程中的设计原理，而连续体本身可能对工程教师教授设计的努力有很大帮助。
