, researchers have analyzed project deliverables andconceptual design outcomes as meaningful representations represent students’ innovationcompetency.7–9Yet, innovation is a complex phenomenon. Current understanding of innovation involves notonly outcomes and individual characteristics, but the environments that support innovativeoutcomes10–12, and more prominently, the processes that innovators13,14 and innovative teamsorganizations15 utilize. In this study, we investigate the breadth of student understanding ofinnovation processes. More specifically, we ask: 1. To what extent do engineering students acknowledge unique phases of innovation as part of their personal innovation processes? 2. To what extent do engineering students acknowledge

This process has been implemented within amixed online/in-person multi-university course comprised of both undergraduate and graduatelevel students who are predominantly, but not exclusively, pursuing engineering degrees. OurInnovation Based Learning (IBL) course seeks to provide students with maximum freedom andresponsibility for their own learning; we seek to radically rethink and reduce the organizationaltasks normally performed by the instructor. Re-assigning these tasks to the students creates newopportunities to learn soft skills such as
