Hannah was a four year club sports athlete for the Clemson University Women’s Ultimate team. She was captain for two years, which taught her team-centered leadership. Hannah used these skills to lead her senior design capstone team to develop and create a functional sports rehabilitation device. Hannah found her drive for design and engineering education during the development of this device and is working to instill students with the same drive and initiative through experimental learning.Dr. John D.

She was awarded a CAREER grant from the National Science Foundation to study expert teaching in capstone design courses, and is co-PI on numerous NSF grants exploring com- munication, design, and identity in engineering. Drawing on theories of situated learning and identity development, her work includes studies on the teaching and learning of communication, effective teach- ing practices in design education, the effects of differing design pedagogies on retention and motivation, the dynamics of cross-disciplinary collaboration in both academic and

If practitioners are needed, then there needs to be a careertrack where their services can be valued and rewarded. Practitioners are typically includedon the faculty as adjunct professors.

An additional layer that will be conducted through a capstone audience survey is planned to be implemented this year as a more holistic, qualitative approach, but the survey will be in the form of a rubric to overlay on the EAMU vector.ConclusionWhen programs adopt the new ABET Criterion 3 Student Outcomes, it is important to recognize that a robustassessment

to meet these demands. Studentsare given an arsenal of formulas over the course of their undergraduate years. But, when requiredto use their knowledge productively in “real-world” contexts during senior capstone projects, itquickly becomes apparent that wider skill sets are needed. Informed by the philosophicalreflection that has facilitated previous paradigmatic shifts, we might consider that, in addition toapplying basic math, science, and design skills, students also need to cultivate qualitative skillssuch as asking questions, qualitative modeling, brainstorming, decomposing solutions,presenting, and reporting39,40.These are just some of the skills that comprise a student’s creative competence, which ultimatelyincludes establishing a
