At the base of themodel, the competencies apply to a large number of industries. As a reader moves up the model,the competencies become industry and occupation specific. The DOL also makes detailed modelcompetencies available in text form [12], and we used that content to start our initial BOK.

For this reason, Sapir [26] described metonymy as “the logical inverse of metaphor… [with] two terms that occupy a common domain but do not share common features.”• Synecdoche is a specific type of metonymy, in which one part of an entity represents the entire entity [23]. For example, in the sentence “We need some more hands on the project,” hands refer to people.• Analogy is a broad category encompassing any figure of speech involving a comparison of domains [32], and therefore, metaphor is “a species” of analogy [3].

However the concerns proved unfounded and the students were able tocomplete the wiring successfully in teams of four within the 2 hour lab time. To help the process,the instructor station was wired ahead of the lab and left as an example for the students.After the first week, the wiring was left in place and modified as needed in following labs. Inthose weeks the students were able to add sensors and actuators to satisfy weekly lab exercises.At the conclusion of the semester students were given more elaborate projects where they neededto connect their station to control a piece of equipment like a conveyor and can crusher.At the time of final submission the

How do educators choose strategically tobuild upon student experiences over time? How do educators assemble the right environment,comprising subjects and objects that, through interaction, lead to the greatest positive growth?Here, I am most interested in the second question. In agreement with Dewey, the significance ofthe experience is going to depend upon how well students are grounded in a shared “socialenterprise.” This is not the kind of enterprise that one should associate with business orentrepreneurialism.

purpose of this theory paper is to show engineering education researchers how they cancreatively leverage mixed methods in their research such that they can achieve moremethodologically comprehensive integration and transparency. This paper will be of interest toboth newcomers and veterans of using mixed methods research designs. In addition to presentingexemplars within mixed methods research designs, we offer additional strategies for researcherswho find it challenging to integrate mixed methods beyond the data collection and drawinginferences stages of a project. BackgroundMany methodologists have described mixed methods with slight variations in their formulations[9]. At its most fundamental
