as the end artifact (Lande & Leifer, 2009). The notion of learningprofessional work, like a “prototyping culture” (Schrage, 1996), can sometimes support courselearning goals. Oftentimes though the purpose of learning of a design process, and in particular,the discrete steps and associated values, takes a secondary role to the creation and delivery of afunctional system. There is less time than might be desired for reflection (Turns et.al, 2014),especially within the design process, in seeking feedback and actually doing iterative design.Iterative physical prototyping to learn and refine concepts further (Buxton, 2007) may suffer dueto time constraints.Future Time HorizonStudents’ futures thinking has been explored, though not within the

thisarticle, Wasburns suggests providing a gender-neutral classroom by avoiding using sportsexamples or providing assessments earlier and more frequently [3]. Other strategies for gender-focused inclusion can revolve around assigning personal reflections for students to helpunderrepresented engineering students feel a stronger sense of belonging [4]. While thesestrategies may prove useful for building inclusive class-based environments, these strategies mayfall flat when students are utilizing technology as part of their instructional practice.Technology is a critical part of instructional design; however, the types and implementation oftechnology can affect the success and motivation of students. For example, women are heavilyinfluenced by the

The performance measures ofthe system are response time of the cylinder to a target setpoint position and positioning errorsthat reflect the deviation of current cylinder position from the target position. The controllableprocess parameters (factors) in this system include fluid pressure, proportional gain of thecontroller configuration, and signal communication (local vs. remote).

Further, the proposedcommunication and knowledge-making suggested by the reviewer reflects Western ways ofknowing, making knowledge, and communicating [21]; as such, this aligns with culturalimperialism and, following Dotson, is a form of epistemic violence [22

The R-squared statistic(coefficient of determination) was much higher in 2005 (0.4972) than in 2004 (0.0008),indicating that the final-exam score was much less correlated to other metrics of the student’sknowledge when the final exam was unproctored. This suggests that proctored exam results aremuch more reflective of other measures of knowledge than unproctored exam results.A comparison of proctored online with unproctored online exams was done
