All Engineering Science students at the University of Toronto take the cornerstone Praxis Sequence of engineering design courses. In the first course in the sequence, Praxis I, students practice three types of engineering design across three distinct design projects. Previously the final design project had the students first frame and then develop conceptual design solutions for a self-identified challenge. While this project succeeded in providing an appropriate foundational design experience, it failed to fully prepare students for the more complex design experience in Praxis II. The project also failed to ingrain the need for clear and concise engineering communication, and the students’ lack of understanding of detail design inhibited their ability to make practical and realistic design decisions. A revised Product Design project in Praxis I was designed with the primary aims of: (a) pushing students beyond the conceptual design phase of the design process, and (b) simulating a real-world work environment by: (i) increasing the interdependence between student teams and (ii) increasing the students’ perceived value of engineering communication.

This Work in Progress paper presents on the design of project-based learning approach focused on assistive technology as applied in a freshmen level engineering course which also integrates outreach with the local K12 system. The university course targets general education topics as well as an introductory engineering design experience and includes content on the engineering design process, societal implications of engineering design, and a participatory lab-based design project. A partnering class of 5th graders from a local elementary school made use of a daily block of time set aside for academic interventions and individual project-based work to collaborate with the university class. A qualitative assessment was conducted and has thus far has revealed that the university students found the assistive technology theme of the semester-long design project to be meaningful. For the K12 students, the survey results and anecdotal observations suggest that we were only moderately successful in constructing a meaningful and purposeful design experience, from their perspective.

Praktikum Perancangan Teknik Industri II(PPTI II) merupakan bagian dari praktikum terintegrasi di Program Studi Teknik Industri UNS yang melakukan kegiatan manufakturdaribahan baku sampai menjadi produk. Prosesmanufaktur menggunakanmesin yang menimbulkan suara bising yang belum sesuai dengan Keselamatan dan Kesehatan Kerja(K3).Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasiK3 pada PPTI IIuntuk mengantisipasi terjadi kecelakaan kerja. Analisis K3menggunakan metode Job Safety Analysis(JSA)denganmengidentifikasi dan menganalisis potensi risiko kecelakaan kerja. Metode penelitian ini dilakukan dengan pengukuran kebisingan dan suhuserta melakukan wawancara terstruktur kepada praktikan. Pengukuran yang dilakukan adalah pengukuran kebisingan dan suhu dalam laboratorium dan untuk memperkuat hasil pengukuran dilakukan wawancara terstruktur terhadap 20 praktikan dari total praktikan yang berjumlah 71 mahasiswakemudian melakukan analisis menggunakan JSA. Hasil penilaian tingkat risikodiketahui bahwa 66,67% potensi risiko paling tinggi adalah karena kebisingan diatas Nilai Ambang Batas. Abstract [Title:Work Safety and Health Evaluation on Industrial Engineering Design Practicum II using Job Safety Analysis Method]Industrial Engineering Design Practicum II (IEDP II) is part of an integrated practicum in the UNS Industrial Engineering Study Program that carry out manufacturing activities from raw materials to products. The manufacturing process usesmachines that cause noise that are not in accordance with Occupational Safety and Health (OHS). This study consisted to evaluate OHS in IEDP II to anticipate workplace accidents. OHS analysis uses the Job Safety Analysis Method by identifying and analyzingthe potential risk of workplace accidents. The method of this research is carried out by measuring noise and temperature and conducting structured interviews with practitioners.Measurements made were measurements of noise and temperature in the laboratory and to strengthen the results of measurements conducted structuredinterviews of 20 practitioners from a total of 71 students who then analyzed using JSA. The results of the risk level assessment revealed that 66.67% of the highest risk potential was due to noise.Keywords:JobSafety Analysis;Occupational Safety and Health; Industrial Engineering Design Practicum II

Historically, the teaching of design theory in an engineering curriculum was relegated to a senior capstone design experience. Presently, however, engineering design concepts and courses can be found through the entirety of most engineering programs. Educators have recognized that engineering design provides a foundational platform that can be used to develop educational strategies for a wide array of engineering science principles. More recently, educators have found that product archaeology provides an effective platform to develop scalable learning materials, strategies, and educational innovations across these design courses. In this paper, we focus on the upper level design experience and present a set of innovative strategies aimed at teaching design in a global perspective. Moreover, this approach facilitates meeting the challenging requirements of ABET’s Outcome h. The effectiveness of the strategies is assessed using a benchmark national survey on the Engineer of 2020. Results demonstrate a significant increase in student perception across a number of skill and knowledge areas, which are critical to the next generation of engineers.
