Many engineering courses are characterized by having to produce one-off, technically complex artifacts to demonstrate that learning has been achieved. This paper introduces "Rapid Prototype as Design' as an effective methodology to help students produce effective results in their engineering projects. This paper presents a case study on the GlucoFridge, a pocket-sized, battery powered insulin refrigerator which was a technologically complex project involving a variety of technologies. The product was developed in three months through the tight integrated use of virtual and physical rapid prototyping technologies that allowed for an extremely fast reiterative design approach and a short development time.
