Each meeting was structured toaddress one of the three outcomes, and the outcome addressed was rotated regularly. A schedule forthe Spring 2017 semester is presented in Table 1 to illustrate this. In order to address outcome 1, on-campus speakers were invited to discuss specific topics, such as creating instructional videos, activelearning techniques, and the learning management system.

that there werethree main curricular activities within engineering that had the potential to encourage EBR in theclassroom: the report to the client at the end of the unit, the types of questions the teacher askedof the students (i.e., asking students to further explain the “why” or “how” of their answers), andstudent discussions. However, this research did not address actual implementation of thecurricula. Mathis et al.18 explored students’ use of EBR during solution generation of anengineering design challenge in a seventh-grade classroom. The study found that students usedEBR most while planning a design idea and evaluating the tested design solution; also, instancesof EBR were found in student worksheets and group discussions.

Ph.D. training production levels and types are not always a good fit foraddressing complex technical and societal problems such as these. To train these scientists, theP3 NRT is using the T-training model proposed by the American Society of Plant Biology(ASPB) and described in “Unleashing a Decade of Innovation in Plant Science: A Vision for2015-2025”. This approach requires that students get broader exposure to multiple disciplines,work with industry and develop effective communication and collaboration skills withoutincreasing the time to graduation.
