The project was qualitatively assessed through analysis ofreflections collected over two years from the faculty teaching the course, the graduate teachingassistant, a community volunteer who organizes mobile produce markets for the local foodbank,and undergraduate student participants. What follows is in their own words. 23. ResultsFaculty reflections. I wanted to introduce more active learning to a course that is traditionallytaught via lecture, and was encouraged by my participation in a

At the same time, D-Lab classesfeature instructors from a rich range of backgrounds – an instructor could be a socialentrepreneur, an industrial designer, a humanitarian aid worker, a public-school teacher, anengineer, a social scientist, or a coastal ecologist. D-Lab instructors have taken many pathsthrough their careers and bring complex, fascinating

practice can be difficult for students as they attempt tobuild a cohesive understanding of the subject. It also poses a challenge for faculty trying toconvey dense, text-heavy technical information using either the conventional chalkboard orpresentation software. It is easy for the underlying beauty of the concepts to stay hidden underthe jargon-filled landscape. Notes written on the whiteboard or chalkboard by faculty focus onconveying technical content to students, and these may make only limited used of graphicaldesign ideas that can be leveraged for communicating information more effectively. What isneeded is a mechanism for engaging both the students’ imagination and technical skills whilebuilding an understanding of concepts, using

These reviews also use the SAE Rubricfor providing written feedback to the teams. Teams are required to record and submit a summaryof the oral comments made by all judges, and then use the MVP process to prioritize app changesto be implemented in the week between the CDR and final app submission. As part of the finalsubmission, an oral presentation is made to the class, a set of reflective questions are individuallyanswered, and peer evaluations are performed.Sample Student WorkTo better illustrate what student teams have proven themselves capable of through thecornerstone design project, two software
