assess designthinking, 102 interviews with girls were videotaped across elementary and middle schoolprograms in two cities. The interviews called on youth to give a guided, narrative description oftheir work on a design project accomplished in their engineering-focused, girls-only afterschoolprogram. Interviews were augmented with programmatic observations, so the analysts couldtriangulate evidence from interviews with observations of girls engaged in the projects. Incollaboration with the curriculum development team, a rubric was developed to measure theextent to which girls communicated effective engineering design, specifically: a) understandingof the design challenge, b) evaluation of design strengths and weaknesses, and c) evidence

Those that do typically only allow for interactionbetween groups within the same overarching discipline such as Mechanical or ElectricalEngineering. Ideally, the capstone experience is meant to foreshadow the type of interaction andwork that a student will engage in, easing their transition into the work environment followinggraduation. In industry, engineers are expected to work collaboratively with experts in severaltechnical and non-technical domains. Subsequently, capstone classes are lacking the ability toprepare undergraduate students for membership on the interdisciplinary
