Grading
Instructors determine grades Generally 50% from team components
Meaning shared a grade with team members {no separation}
50% from individual work
Lab/lecture journals {note taking & participation} QOW Small team presentations Weekly emails Peer reviews
Success in this class
Do the little things {instructor will explain} Communication, communication, communication {3 Xs enough}
This means listening
Work well in a team environment Have fun {enthusiasm increases value of work and product}
InterEgr 160: Introduction to Engineering Design
Project for client {discussed in lab} Final requirements {in place of final exam} Provide product {that works} Presentation {PP} to client {professional} Design report

Design Process Overview
What is design?
process of going from specific needs to a product that meets those needs
Design Process Overview
Important aspects of design
must be useful (customer needs) be safe
Measures of product/design
cost, quality and time (lab tower building) customer and management want it cheaper, better and faster
Final designs may be radically different, but "roadmap" for process t...
