No sooner has a client or professor defined a series of objectives fora design project than the designer- whether in a consulting office or in a classroom- want to findout what the customer really wants. Questions such as: what is an economic project? How doyou define the best design? What is a safe design? What are the factor(s) that will affect thedesign the most? Phrasing it differently, knowledge resides in the questions that can be asked andthe answers that can be provided. (2, 3) A sequence

The 2012-13school-year was the launch of the Urban Initiative.As part of a larger research project, a set of surveys were developed to measure student attitudestoward STEM and interest in STEM careers. Two versions of the “Student Attitudes towardSTEM (S-STEM) Survey” were created, one for upper elementary students (4th and 5th grade)and another for middle and high school students (6-12th grade). To measure student interest inSTEM careers the final section of the S-STEM Survey contained twelve items, each with adefinition of a STEM career pathway and titles of related occupations.

built their owndefinitions of leadership [12]. For instance, one of the more popular definitions “borrowed” fromcommunication research defines leadership as follows: “Leadership is not defined by a title orposition, but rather as a process that takes place between leaders, followers, and/or teammembers” [13]. The field of business has defined leadership as “the process of interactiveinfluence that occurs when, in a given context, some people accept someone as their leader toachieve common goals.” [14] Winston and Patterson [15] from organizational studies defineleadership in the following way: A leader is one or more people who selects, equips, trains, and influences one or more follower(s) who have diverse gifts, abilities, and
