Pines, et al. suggestthat establishing maker curriculum in addition to the traditional curriculum has allowed for thedevelopment of broader skillsets which cover knowledge beyond engineering, includingteamwork, creativity, innovation, collaboration, critical thinking, project management, andsystems engineering. These skills are highly valued in the technical workforce but not alwayspracticed or developed in formal education settings.Oplinger et al.’s “Making and Engineering: Understanding Similarities and Differences” [6]covers a general survey which shows that both making and engineering are perceived to beactive, project developing fields.

Both themore data oriented initial coding as well as the conceptualizing focused coding happened inparallel for much of the overall coding process. Focused coding was the first conceptual stepin the data analysis where significant or frequent first order codes are used to group andexplain larger sets of data. All of the codes remaining after the initial and focused coding,were then further thematically analyzed in a format inspired by Gioia et al.’s data structure[38].

of framing an engineering problem as being composed of discretesystems, the Circle Way recognizes that the parts are not only interacting, but that the boundariesbetween them are shifting, arbitrary, and often far from clear. The Circle Way challengesparticipants to shift their orientation from a collection of individuals to a co-creating community.For instance, consider a technical project team: one typical approach would be to break down theproject into the electrical, mechanical, and software (etc.) engineering sub-projects, assign eachto the student(s) of that major, and integrate the completed parts into the whole system at thevery end.

We utilized twoexisting surveys: the Reisman Diagnostic Creativity Assessment (RDCA) [10] and theInnovative Behavior Scales (IBS) [11]. We chose two instruments, as while the RDCA coveredmost of the course objectives, an inspection of Reisman et al. [10] indicated that the surveyconstructs had questionable reliability in prior use. Therefore, our team refined this instrumentand its constructs prior to data collection. In contrast, our team had utilized Dyer et al.’s (2008)instrument in the past, with results that had excellent reliability. Notably, the

The program is curricular and all participating students are graded (A-F; not P/F, S/U). VIPis not an extra- or co-curricular activity. It is a sequence of courses whose credits count towardsstudents' degree requirements, and letter grading holds students accountable for their work. Inmany ways, feedback and grading in VIP is like an evaluation in the workplace. Work isevaluated, guidance is given, and students have the opportunity to improve.

, community,or other source, contextual listening has a broader meaning. It refers to A multidimensional, integrated understanding of the listening process wherein listening facilitates meaning making, enhances human potential, and helps foster community-supported change. In this form of listening, information such as cost, weight, technical specs, desirable functions, and timeline acquires meaning only when the context of the person(s) making the requirements (their history, political agendas, desires, forms of knowledge, etc.) is fully understood [19, p. 125].Although students in IFCS did not engage with an actual community, the posing of the tankproblem underscored the value of listening to a community to
