from multiple disciplines work in parallel, it can be difficult to overcome languagebarriers, inherent biases, and even coming up with a common problem statement [10] due todisagreements.The course employed instruction delivery approaches found in professional programs’ studio andlab courses where theory and technology intersect. In technology and engineering curriculumintegration of theory and technology happens in laboratory courses and in the arts and design it isin studios. In addition, professional programs often use a project-based, learner-centeredapproach. The common element in these integrative courses is the introduction of a team-basedproject with a set of learning objectives and outcomes focusing on ethical professional
