As hestates, “in developmental phenomenography, as opposed to pure phenomenography, the researchis designed with the intention that there will be practical outcomes. Implications for learning andfor practice abound. The research is intended to inform and influence practice” 2 (p. 35).Additionally, Bowden describes, “the aim is to describe variation in experience in a way that isuseful and meaningful, providing insight into what would be required for individuals to move Page 26.1676.4from less powerful to more powerful ways of understanding a phenomenon

In order to better prepare graduates with asystems perspective and the competencies to be effective in system design, we discuss initiatives topromote the development of systems thinking, both in undergraduate and K-12 communities. This paperdescribes vertically-integrated curriculum innovation, in which graduate-level coursework spawned apilot program to embed systems in a core engineering design course for undergraduates with its resultingadoption and extension to a core design thread, and a resulting high school curriculum development anddissemination effort which has followed. These efforts have also prompted educational research todevelop the academic underpinnings of the relatively under-developed scholarly

The mentorship guide provided a breakdown of the engineering design process andoutlined milestones in engineering design process that they should aim for throughout thesemester.

Yet studies investigating organizational change in higher education have predominantlyconsidered the university as the unit of analysis, a macro-level analysis[24].

Ina report concerning best practices for nanotechnology commercialization, Waitz andBukhari (4) pointed out that the most currently visible nanotech company, Narcosis wasformed through the licensing of Intellectual Property (IP) from universities, where theworld’s leaders in nanoscience academics and research are resident. Michael Darby andLynne Zucken, in a study conducted for the National Bureau of Economic Research (5),stated that 70 % of university inventions cannot be utilized without the involvement of theinventor. The inventor team generally consists of university faculty members and studentswho conduct research. This background and overview of the commercialization process fornanotechnology, highlights the need for

The research related to the core competencies in the advanced manufacturing sector,conducted by Society of Manufacturing Engineers, was the result of complaints that were issuedby many industries like automotive, aerospace, electronics and some others. These complaintsrelated to the lack of preparation that future engineers are receiving in colleges and universitiesin some specific areas that were identified as critical in maintaining innovation in the productdesign and realization processes for the longer term.

A challenge indeveloping the simulator is that the example should have general appeal to various engineeringdisciplines. A benefit of the business simulation model for delivery as compared to the multiplecase study model is that it can be distributed in a stand-alone format.

Olin College dealt withmany of same challenges and opportunities that the UTEP E-Lead Program is facing now. Theyhave experience in partnering with schools in program creation, student engagement, andcurriculum innovation. The focus for these partnerships is on the program and curriculumdevelopment process (with Olin-centric experiences as inspiration) rather than direct adoption ofOlin curriculum. The process includes elements of user-centered design, design thinking, with astrong focus on culture development and faculty and student engagement. Olin has experience inABET

Lohmann et al.9 described a quasi-experimental research effort to measure theeffectiveness of study abroad programs using an instrument developed by the InterculturalCommunications Institute10. The Handbook of Intercultural Competence11 acknowledges,however, that developing reliable instruments for this complex construct is challenging due tothe influence of so many external factors and recognizes the efforts of few institutions, includingLohmann et al.9, in measuring impact. Further, Deardoff11 is an advocate of triangulation inwhich assessment instruments are complemented by

Our experience shows thatthe removal of prerequisites, making the course readily available for those interested in pursuingCS, had no significant impact on student performance. Having minimal prerequisites has beneficialeffects in terms of diversifying the CS student body as well as enabling students to begin CScoursework early, often in the first semester, potentially impacting persistence, but also enablingstudents to decide, early, if CS is right for them. Programs should evaluate what prior knowledge isrequired to be successful in a CS program.
