A common feature of these inductive methods is that questions or problems form thecontext for learning.3 Thus, formative assessments based on questions/problems can play afundamentally important role in student learning.

Such problems are more likeproblems, issues, or decisions encountered in everyday life [1]; Fox (1981) refers to this type ofproblem engagement as ‘real-world problem solving’. Reference [3] likens this intrinsic value ofdesignerly knowing to the educational value of critical thinking. To extend this idea further, Iwould argue that [3]’s analogy presupposes the reflective nature of design. In the followingsections I will present three aspects of the nature of design (i.e., reflective, ill-defined and open-ended, and social) and discuss how they can contribute to an engineering education rooted

The focus of the conversation wasthat the author felt a recent 4.4% cut in the College'·s budget andcontinued rises in enrollment were eroding the quality of his education.The Dean asked the author to define a quality education. A list ofvarious criteria such as class size, advising, faculty competence, andup-to-dateness of lab equipment quickly came to mind. However, thelist was incomplete and quite myopic. The Dean pointed out two problemswith the list: 1. It was only one person's perspective, i.e., another student would probably generate a different
