underdevelopedarea of design research (Goldschmidt et al., 2014). Here, ‘coaching’ refer to the process ofadvice-giving in a design review, and coaches refer to the individuals participating in the advice-giving situation (e.g., teachers, experts, stakeholders, and peers). Goldschmidt et al. (2010) notethat the coaching that occurs during a design review is an understudied “black box” representinga coach’s personal style and accumulated wisdom. Much of the existing work is based onarchitecture design crits although recent work supported a global and cross-disciplinarycollaboration to “analyze design reviews across disciplines” (Adams & Siddiqui, 2016).1.1 Three aspects of design coaching - functions, contributions, and rolesFigure 1 summarizes prior

engineering projects course at theUniversity of Colorado at Boulder, Knight et al. found that students who took the coursedemonstrated increased retention when compared with their peers who did not take the course [3].When Knight et al. discussed possible explanations for this increased retention, they attributed itto “the impact of active hands-on pedagogy, creation of student learning communities, an earlyexperience on the human side of engineering, self-directed acquisition of knowledge by students,instructor mentoring, and the success orientation of the course” [3]. It has been shown that ifstudents have a strong, positive conviction about their knowledge in engineering, then they aremore likely to succeed academically in the specific subject, as

method of addressing the issue of variance reduction due to group evaluation inthis type of projects course is well treated by Earle and Wood12. To determine individual gradesfrom group efforts, they use a nomograph in conjunction with (a) student assigned values ofpercent contribution for each member of their own group, and (b) an overall team grade assignedby the instructor. This assumes, of course, that the students provide an honest assessment oftheir peers, and on the whole this would seem to be a reasonable assumption if it is done “in theblind”. To evaluate the initial project proposals, we used a similar concept but did not use thesame approach. We had the students rank the project proposal presentations and the instructorprovided his

The method and exclusion criteriawe used are summarized in Figure 1. To establish a reasonable scope for this project, we limitedour database searching to ERIC and PsycINFO.

According toTapscott and Williams [8], the new principles for success in Globalization 3 are a) openness toexternal ideas, b) individuals as peers, c) sharing of intellectual property, and d) global action.

The intent was for the individuals to assess the commonalities emerging from theirconcepts over their entire set. A survey question asked students: Consider your set of concepts again. Some concepts may seem related, while others are one of a kind. How many different KINDS of concepts are in your set? Write down each group of similar concepts in your set. Add a label to describe why you put them together. Make sure every concept is listed either in a group or by itself.The complete session lasted 75 minutes.Data AnalysisAll of the students completed the exercise within the time frame of the

One of those meetings is allocatedfor course instruction, a second is allocated for team/advisor meetings, and a third is allocated forteam meetings. Considering that the allotted instructional time is one hour per week, the goal forthese topics is to provide students a good exposure and some practice (either in the context oftheir capstone design project or a small PBL assignment such as a design challenge). Duringthese full-class instruction periods, students consider and solve unstructured problems related todesign and sustainability through case studies using visualization, writing, and
