These discussions were facilitated after studentstested their initial designs and before they formally planned their second designs. These post-testing discussions were products of a prior study in which each teacher facilitated a small groupdiscussion with five student avatars to support the students in working collaboratively to critiqueand revise each team’s initial ideas about design performance and improvement.We focus on three features of these discussions, i.e., how teachers encourage students to: (1)engage with other teams about their designs, (2) talk about constraints

widelyacknowledged that graduating engineers require a lot more skills that simply doing workedexamples about a single component of an entire engineering system, such as leadership,teamwork, and communication skills [17,18].Well-planned and well-conceived assessments can provide the opportunity to expand anddevelop these required soft skills at the same time as maintaining the ability to assess courseeffectiveness against ABET student learning outcomes and provide a ranking system of studentsfor future employers. Writing Across the Curriculum [19] is one example of this, where writingand communication exercises are incorporated into all aspects of the curriculum including thetechnical subjects that are often assessed only through worked problems.

One of these frameworks uses a set of structured questions about a particularexperience, and is the one we use in our study. The work of Schon, Dewey, Moon, and Rogersform our theoretical foundation and we used their ideas as a lens to interpret student reflections.Prior WorkVandegrift et. al.

IntroductionRecent studies show problem-solving ability is being increasingly prioritized as a core aspect ofengineering curriculum and a fundamental competency demanded by employers. However, notonly are problem-solving activities time consuming for students, they are also often difficult toassess beyond simply checking for correctness of the final answer. In addition, it is difficult in aclassroom setting to deliver useful feedback [1].
