design derived from the exercises.There are many ways of using class exercises in the classroom setting. For a small class size, theteacher may simply use an exercise to engage students in discussion and hands-on practice. Forlarger classes, the students can be assigned to small groups using the class exercise as aninstrument leading to group projects. Woods and Howard [12] effectively used class exercisesfor Information Technology students to study ethical issues. Day and Foley [13] used class timeexclusively for exercises, having their students prepare for class with materials provided online.Bishop and Verleger [14] presented a comprehensive survey of the research that revieweddifferent ways of using class exercises in the classroom, often

Complementary experiences, such as professionaldevelopment workshops, that are coupled with STOMP may accelerate these positive results.Further studies that investigate how to best prepare teachers for teaching engineering content inthe classroom will be an important accompaniment to this one. Further study of STOMP and itsimpact on student learning is also important for a more complete understanding of the program.Longitudinal data on STOMP and how individual teachers change over the course of theirenrollment in the program will also give a better idea of how the program impacts teachers.Bibliography1.

The result of this synthesis was a set of design principles that was used in the development of courses and lessons that prepare students to use systems thinking techniques within the design process. ● The innovation example unpacks the process of developing a framework of design for high- impact innovation

Though we faced other difficulties, the selection andacceptance of the ethnographic interview for our methodology was not a stumbling block for theengineers on the team.Grounding our interpretations in the data and not in pre-determined theoretical frameworkproved difficult for us and even more difficult for reviewers of submitted publications. Unlikewith the scientific method where an experiment is designed to confirm or refute a hypothesis,discourse analysis rarely begins from a defined theoretical framework. An accepted practice inethnographic based research is for interpretation of discourse to be grounded in the data not thetheoretical framework [28]. The danger of grounding
