apprenticeships, capstone design projects, andinternships, are offered as part of the ADVANCE model. The ultimate goal of the degreepathway model that ADVANCE offers is to ensure that students are prepared for post-baccalaureate employment and success in the workplace. ADVANCE seeks to ensure that whatstudents learn and experience in their educational journey reflects workforce realities. Mappeddegree pathways that integrate industry-defined credentials and standards will leave noambiguity for students regarding desired workforce competencies. By building in immersiveexperiential learning opportunities, students will better understand workplace expectations andprepare to transition successfully upon graduation.As ADVANCE students progress through their

Industrypractitioners suggested that possession of the presented, more fundamental skills would result inthe ability to design, but that the ability to design was not the ultimate goal.Student Observations.

These moretraditional approaches provide a beneficial learning experience and support integrating thevarious components of the SE body of knowledge, but are limited by time and domain. Thecapstone is usually a single project and at most a year in length. If it covers the full lifecycle,then it must be a fairly simple project and most likely represents only one domain.

We also want to understand how the perception of these values isrelated to one another. In the light of this study, we want to answer the following research questions(1) How do students' reported conflict management skills relate to their reported scrum values?

For example, a student might take five courses a semester over eight semesters – 40courses. Especially for the courses in the student’s major, the content of these courses are relatedto content of previous courses, building on and integrating prior learning. Further, within a givencourse, there are numerous lectures, exercises, exams, and projects that interrelate. When astudent gets to their senior capstone design experience, they need to draw upon all

However, there is still a call for more practice-based experiencesthroughout the curriculum [4]. Instead of focusing on packing more into engineering curriculum,we explore the idea of leveraging the many design experiences students are already engaging inby advocating for the development of a “bridging language”.Students are already engaging in a breadth of design experiences throughout their lifetime.Engineering students engage in a number of formal design education experiences - such ascornerstone and capstone classes or design electives - throughout

While significantattention has been devoted to bridging the gaps between engineering theory and practice,classroom learning and workplace realities, and individual vs. teamwork, one crucial area thatremains under-recognized is the development of effective supervisor-subordinate
