pioneers in positioning design as a key contributor toinnovation. These and other creative companies are increasingly emphasizing the importance ofconnecting design to customers’ emotions and needs, and of constructing maps that show thepath to innovation. "Design Innovation" has been likewise identified as an important skill forstudents in science, technology, and engineering disciplines by national organizations like theNational Science Foundation and the National Academy of Engineering. Real-world problems are rarely defined along specific disciplinary lines and innovation oc-curs when those lines are crossed. Biological systems have always been a source of inspirationfor engineers, and many bio-inspired designs (sometimes referred to as

Simply speaking,identity is not as singular as how an individual perceives themselves in isolation from otheraspects of their personality. Often individuals project different parts of their identity asdependent on the environment and context. In doing so individuals are continuously doing andundoing their identities to suit their needs in the moment.In Science and Math Science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) disciplines have turned to identitytheories as a way to identify talented individuals in efforts to fuel recruitment and retention.
