Survey of StudentEngagement from 2006, many of the external obstacles facing NT students contribute to thedifficulty for them to develop peer relationships (study groups) at the university [14].Those students that are employed and seeking degree completion identified many professionalbarriers exhibited in the workplace including a lack of tuition reimbursement, competing timemanagement schedules, and/or lack of release time from work. Also institutional barriersinhibiting access to higher education included the high cost of tuition, and diminishedaffordability [4]. Furthermore, because adult learners (NTs) also face the barriers of simplycoping with previously outlined external factors add additional stress and/or anxiety arecompounded by the

A rubric was developed forevaluating these documents and a small group of faculty, including faculty from the Englishdepartment, conducted a normed assessment of the student performance.

Adedicated 3,100 ft2 machine shop and fabrication space is available to the seniors for this phase ofwork.

Along this process, activities that are mandated for this concept arealso prepared in advance as a set of what we call TIED-UP sheets. TIED-UP sheets include short quizzesthat test conceptual knowledge, along with problems of varying level of complexity that enable theinstructor to assess the student’s knowledge.

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
