In a design process, ideageneration and development are important steps that contribute to the innovative designoutcomes [3]. However, research indicates challenges for students in generating creativeconcepts for open-ended design problems [4]. Successful implementations of creative ideas can lead to innovation.

This settingprovided the opportunity to study how the structured design notebook, which was being used forthe first time, functioned as a tool for design thinking. Classes met for weekly two-hour sessions,with the expectation that design work would extend outside of class hours. During the ten-weekcourse, students were placed into teams comprised of two or three undergraduate students andone graduate student, who was positioned as the team leader. They worked to design, prototype,and present an innovative neural engineering device to a panel of industry judges.

Further, qualitative analytical strategies would also beuseful for providing evidence regarding how each student’s prior experiences (e.g.,undergraduate training, prior work experience) and learning engagement in program activities(e.g., learning and writing communities) impact individual interdisciplinarity.
