In this table, classifications A-Cwere developed by the authors to describe teaching approaches used in the DBE course thatrange from fully deductive to a combination of deductive/ inductive; D-G are based on theinquiry classification scheme proposed in Tafoya et al.7 and expanded by Staver and Bay8; andH-L are drawn from a comprehensive review of inductive teaching approaches assembled byPrince and Felder5. In general the classifications are listed left to right in Table 1 ranging fromdeductive to increasingly self-directed, inquiry-based methods. The remainder of this section willdefine each classification in the context of the DBE course.Table 1

assessments from faculty, experiments they perform, and client corrections. Theassessments from faculty are often based on intuition and wisdom which allow them to predictwith some success the outcomes of the experiments the students perform. Regardless of thepredictions of the faculty and the students, the actual outcome of the experiments dictate nextsteps. Either the design works, or it does not. If it does not, which is most often the case, at thispoint in the semester there is little to no time for recovery. Finally, as a design comes togetherthe client(s) may provide feedback that the students did not appropriately frame the problem (i.e.the design is doing what was asked, but this is not what is needed) or that the design teammisinterpreted

technical content is necessary and that contentmust be well organized and specific. Based on this analysis (often done in a matter ofminutes), a speaker can then determine the scope, style, and organization of what s/hewants to say.Experienced communicators do this analysis and synthesis without much difficulty, movingefficiently to the appropriate oral communication act. But students are usually novices at thiskind of thinking and speaking. Moreover, engineering students may be unused to thestandards of excellence in their technical discipline and thus fall back onto older strategies,often adopted from the humanities. Because they are novices, they need to learn activelyunder the guidance of instructors who help shape student skills.The design

In addition, we propose amodel of key factors affecting engineering graduate students’ identities as shown in Figure 1.Constructs capturing the key factors affecting engineering identity and research identity areadapted from the undergraduate science and engineering identity model (Carlone & Johnson,2007; Godwin, 2016; Hazari et al., 2010; Prybutok et al., 2016 ). Based on the identity model, weexpect that graduate students’ engineering identities will be affected by three factors: engineeringcompetence/performance, engineering interest, and recognition as an engineer by others. On theother hand, previous work on research identity does not provide a framework for measuringresearch identity

Likewise,engineers in academia as well as corporate and government labs carry out primary research,discovering the principles underlying complex artificial systems17. The line has been blurred.Nonetheless, for the typical engineer at a company and the typical scientist at a research lab,Billington’s distinction that “[s]cience is discovery[;] engineering is design” restated as“[s]cientists study the natural [while] engineers create the artificial”18 still stands in the majorityof cases.In creating the artificial, engineers design products that

though males rated the females’leadership competency higher comparing to the females’ ratings of males, male students stilldid not believe in the leadership ability of female students as much as females themselvesbelieve.Based on the Rowan-Kenyon et al. [19]’s study, if a female student could lead a team, itwould be useful for teams because females tend to define leading as facilitating team andhaving the responsibility toward teams. This may cause conflict with male notions ofleadership, so some instruction may be necessary to legitimize alternative approaches toleadership. In addition, the last two studies in this section proved in teams that are led bystudents, underrepresented students showed better performance. These results highlight

Reduced Instructional Materials Motivation Scale (RIMMS): This instrument is a 12-item questionnaire to assess the level of student motivation. Motivation is measured by four factors: attention (A), relevance (R), confidence (C), and satisfaction (S). Each factor has 3 items in the questionnaire [30]. This questionnaire was collected immediately after finishing Figure 2: A logic of the simulation model of the park with food stand the assignment. The assignment was completed in eleven days.
