The manifestofor Agile software development states: “We are uncovering better ways of developing softwareby doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we have come to value: • Individuals and interactions over processes and tools • Working software over comprehensive documentation • Customer collaboration over contract negotiation • Responding to change over following a planThat is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.” [4]Currently, Scrum is a

This has become especially evident when a student gets a perfect or near perfectoverall score for their homework grade, yet their test scores are very low.

Facultymentors with new or on-going research projects applied to the program by submitting a projectdescription and research plan. Through the application process, faculty project descriptions wereprovided to students to identify areas of interest and create student-faculty teams. To help enableand support these projects, students receive a $3500 stipend and faculty are reimbursed up to$250 for student research supplies.

For instance, while teachers shouldbe familiar with the steps of an EDP, research suggests that this is not sufficient to productivelyfacilitate students’ engineering. In a prior project [10], we documented how teachers’ attention tosteps of an EDP can be a barrier for their meaningful engagement with their students’engineering. When a teacher focused solely on students progressing through each step of theEDP, she missed productive aspects of students’ thinking that deviated from the linear processshe had planned [11].

Session ETD 506Figure 2: Photograph of the Golden Gate Bridge. (Max Pixel, n.d.)The builders of Tacoma narrows were under strong pressure to economize. The original plans forthe Tacoma Bridge Incorporated many safety features. These were considered to be tooexpensive at the time. The plans were revised by an award-winning engineer. Because thisnew design met existing code and it was much less expensive than the original design, it wasselected (Othmar, Kármán, & Woodruff, 1941). In 1936, construction costs were $6,400,000,adjusted for inflation $113,602,000Shortly after construction, the bridge began to rise and fall whenever there was moderate wind.
