Growing up, I was always told that the career choices I had wereeither to be a doctor, lawyer, or engineer. Up until I was 18, I had my mind set on going to lawschool and my mother would always boast about my ambitions to her friends and family – towhich she and I received great praise.

They includedgreater attention to and the development of team-building skills, personal or interactive skills,creative ability, and a business or entrepreneurial where-with-all.While many engineering programs around the country have embraced some of these needs withunique programs, physics has lagged far behind and has tended to maintain its traditional basicscience education. Rather than these needs being a goal of a traditional physics graduate program,we tend to instead produce students trained in the conventional sense. Students strong in basicunderstanding but with little or no interpersonal skills. Students ignorant of business relatedissues, yet with problem solving skills needed by business. And, above all, students

The first author was very interested inexploring this intersectionality, and thus was formed the genus of this paper. Instead of taking a God-like perspective, we believe that researchers and practitioners arehistorically and socioculturally placed and thus the knowledge generated is socioculturallysituated and not value-free [9], [34]. The authors were mindful of the impact their upbringingand education training have on the sense-making process. Acknowledging that they were by nomeans value-free, the we invited the informants to co-construct the process. We would like toemphasize the ultimate goal, rooted in the

This paper will organize some of the best practices insports coaching and draw parallels that will enhance student learning in project based instruction. Thepaper discusses the parallels between the instructor and the coach and highlights three broad categoriesof techniques: 1) Practice and games, 2) Teamwork and individual performance, and 3) Individualfeedback for improvement. Some of these techniques have been used to successfully enhance learning ina senior design course in Industrial Engineering at Cal Poly. The insights in this article will open up arich area of
