The team followed the DESIGN model, proposedby one of the Project Execution Team members. This is a model that builds upon previoussuccessful projects, but is a new iteration that was piloted for STEM-Discovery. DESIGN

thus they will default to a role that is more familiar or is perceived to be less challenging. Another reason that a student may take on a certain role is that that the student may become pigeon-holed into a certain role: if a student volunteers to write the first progress memo, for example, the other team members may expect that student will complete subsequent writing assignments, thus not leaving enough time for the student to take on other tasks. Or, another example is that there could be a student who previously had a lot of experience on a robotics team, and thus is expected by their teammates to do the wiring or coding work for the course project.
