The new model requires dedicated time on behalf of the instructor, interms of planning and grading, but the results indicate it is worthwhile. With some revision, thetime could be kept to a minimum while maximizing student engagement and growth.It is worth mentioning that these courses were all taught during the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020and were done with synchronous, virtual methods.

Develop suggests a stage of design in which theproject direction narrows to focus on a specific choice, or method of solution. Similarly, the phrases of“solving problems” and “resolving issues” indicated a convergent process of narrowing the possible solutionspace into an actionable plan.An

Students confront thepressure to create a basis for their future through life planning, rapidly transitioning fromson/daughter roles to a role as a college student, and self-development. They receive bothpositive and negative feedback on all of their decisions, prompting them to adjust these plans fortheir future [12] rapidly.

In one of his groundbreaking essays, he attributes intelligence to thephysical, social and ideological environments “in which humans live,” which are “thick with invented artifacts that are in constant use for structuring activity, for saving mental work, or for avoiding error, and they are adapted creatively almost without notice. These ubiquitous mediating structures that both organize and constrain activity include not only designed objects such as tools, and symbolic representations like graphs, text and plans, but people in social relations, as
