The faculty members provided constant feedback on students’ designs. The reports, the meeting minutes, the initial designs, and feedback were collected under each team’s e-portfolio. This collection is then used to create a final presentation poster to which members of the community were invited. The e-portfolios allowed the opportunity for reflection on students’ own progress and self-awareness of their potential for learning and comprehension

By extension, our collective experience withinthe college of engineering and the SSTEM program would shape our interpretations of the data[13]. Furthermore, the constructivist approach to grounded theory aligns with a relativistontology and subjective epistemology which require the researchers to ensure transparency inthe analytic process through reflective engagement [14]. The constructivist method of GTrepresents a call to action and can involve approaches such as using the analysis as a foundationfor making specific changes in the lives and experiences of the program participants [15

Additionally, it allowsinstructors to address higher levels of Bloom’s taxonomy, testing application and understandingof content instead of just memory. One
