much as by what an individual’s end goals are, their engagement with a wider set ofexperiences, and the way these contribute to the overall process of becoming. The contingentapproach has some similarities with bricolage [39] or process of creating meaning through theresources available at hand. Levi-Strauss contrasted the bricoleur against the engineer whodevelops new tools and organizes resources according to a well thought through plan with adefined end. While the engineer’s work is precise with elements of permanence, the bricoleurcombines elements that already exist in ways they were not intended for.Another way to frame these two approaches is that methods based on necessity are causal whilethose based in contingency are teleological

Men who are less qualified, both academically andtechnically, are hired, while some intelligent and well-prepared women go unemployedor are forced to work outside their fields of expertise. High academic achievement isviewed by Iranian women as a kind of insurance policy to make discrimination lesslikely, or at least more difficult. However, not all discrimination against women isintentional, as aptly noted by Perez [36], who extensively catalogues the ways in whichwomen are missing from data sets used for planning and decision-making. Defying family and societal norms, which deem women less capable than men,is another motivating factor for Iranian women. Discriminatory employment laws add towomen’s challenges, but even without

] In the earlystages of course planning we developed clearly defined learning outcomes that allowed usto determine the skills and competencies that students would achieve by the end of thecourse. Crafting specific and measurable learning outcomes ensured that the coursecontent aligned with and supported the learning goals of the students. The next step in the course development process was to determine how we would measurethe students’ progress and performance. The learning outcomes for the course are highly focusedon developing skills and proficiencies in engineering experimentation. We determinedthat authentic assessments would be the most appropriate means to measure students’achievement of the learning outcomes. For each of the 6 course

both within and acrossdesign courses. Not only can reflection support students’ meaning-making of a course’s learningobjectives [28], but reflection is a key design skill [34, 36]. This sentiment is akin to Schon’s[34] discussion on reflection-in-action versus reflection-on-action. For example, written studentreflections throughout a course can prompt students to reflect on experiences they occur (i.e., in-action). Thus, instructors should aim to craft opportunities for students to engage in criticalreflection during classroom experiences. While authentic learning opportunities (e.g., ‘real-world’ projects) often elicit reflective practice, they can be time-consuming to plan [37]. Thus,smaller, more frequent reflection exercises, such as the

When thisshared understanding is lacking, change is much harder to come by (Lyon et al., 2014).Troublingly, however, it has become evident that universities are not always aware of theirstudents’ expectations and are therefore unable to factor their voices into institutional change.Allen and Nichols (2017) highlight that while student input is frequently involved in the processof evaluating and revising teaching efforts, it is seldom included when planning and operatingother forms of student support. While Kuh et al.
