Adding Reflection and Oral Communication to a Design Project – Work in ProgressReflection-in-action was encouraged in a junior-level design project by providing a competitor'sdesign to teams. Students then compared their designs to the competitor's design in an oralpresentation. The competitor's design had calculations errors and a different, less expensiveprocess than most of the students chose to use. Interesting questions developed as studentscompared their designs to that of the competitor. Methods, transferability, pitfalls, and futurestudies are discussed in the paper.IntroductionA colleague [placeholder for blind review] and I have taught similar junior-level courses atdifferent universities for a
