The Design Module (Module 1) is designed around open-ended design problems that complement the science and mathematics content of other courses. It also introduces multidisciplinary problems. Module 1 focuses on five fundamental engineering skills:\n\n* design and creativity\n* project management\n* information management\n* teamwork\n* communications\n\nThis course is primarily student-directed. As such, each student team has the opportunity to learn independently and apply creativity to solve the design problem. Because the project is student-directed, the skills and knowledge you learn will be directly related to the effort you put into it. Occasionally students have complained that they did not learn anything from the project; you can ensure that this doesn't happen to you by using the resources provided to develop the five fundamental skills.\n\nIf you are on this page your group will be using appropedia as a design collaboration tool.\n\n== Getting Started with Appropedia ==\n\nYou can start with a [[Media:AddanImageTutorialR.swf|tutorial]]\n\nYou can use your user page to practice editing -without having to worry about mucking up the rest of the site.\nFor an example you can see my page at:[[User:J.M.Pearce]]\nFor tips on making your pages look good go here:\n\n* [[Help:Contents]] (step by step)\n* And [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page here]\n* You can upload files (e.g. pictures) here: [[Special:Upload]]\n* (Hint: it helps to open multiple tabs or browser windows while doing this.)\n* When you create sub-pages for your project include '''<nowiki> {{APSC100}} </nowiki>'''\n\n{{Page data\n| license = CC-BY-SA-3.0\n| keywords = Coursework, Service learning courses\n| authors = J.M.Pearce\n| organizations = Queen's University\n| location = Kingston, Canada\n| coordinates = 44° 13' 50.47\" N, 76° 28' 52.76\" W\n}}\n\n[[Category:Coursework]]\n[[Category:Service learning courses]]"}
