[8] who found thatdifferent languages as well as different paradigms (objects-first, objects in the CS1 course, no objects in the CS1 course)had no appreciable effect on CS2 performance. As to this paper, my finding is that it is significantly beneficial to havemore than one programming language in the CS2 data structures course. Using more than one programming language has been more commonly tried in CS1 courses ([9], [10]) indicatingdefinite benefits such as enabling students to focus better on computational thinking and computational problem solvingthen getting too caught up in syntax. Two programming languages have specifically been used by Ham et
1 StudentsAs shown in Table 5, 15 of the 31 responses included at least one code from both Planning andImplementation. This result demonstrates that a significant percentage of students understandthat the definition of design is not limited to one stage of the process. The capstone students inthis population are near graduation and have had previous design experiences, which Chong etal. [5] argued is vital to understanding the complexity of design. The frequency of the inclusionof both codes and the more detailed responses than Chong et al.’s [5] data corroborates thefinding that students are finishing their programs with a better understanding of engineeringdesign than when they began the program.Nine students’ responses were focused on
communication, and effective taskdelegation. The successes achieved, including influential publications and enhanced researchquality, demonstrate the potential of such collaborations to advance knowledge and tacklecomplex problems.Future projects should build on these lessons by promoting interdisciplinary understanding,addressing structural barriers, and incorporating flexibility in project planning. Academicinstitutions can continue to achieve innovative solutions and advancements in various fields byfostering a collaborative environment that values diverse perspectives and approaches.References[1] L.

Where are professional dialogues applicable? Professional dialogues are particularly applicable in upper-level engineering courses that emphasize design, systems thinking, or interdisciplinary approaches. They are most impactful in project-based learning contexts such as capstone courses or collaborative design challenge, where understanding user needs, industry standards, and technological constraints is essential.
