]. 2 An effective add-on to any instructional method are apprenticeship models, which offermany attractive benefits for educating students to build prototypes through feedback loops. Thecognitive model of situated learning—which apprenticeship falls under—engages experts totrain students (novices), often placing them in side-by-side working situations [4]. This format isconducive to the teaching of procedural techniques, such as laboratory methods, shop methods,coding, and culinary processes. Both the presentation of content and the participation bystudents are necessarily active and social in this educational style [5]. These types of instructioncombine explicit and tacit knowledge [6] and in doing so focus on the practice of what it
