innovative solutions.30,31Experimenting has historically been core to engineering and engineering education, as is evidentby ABET’s learning outcome specifying that students should be able to “design and conductexperiments”.32 As a result, laboratory instruction has long been a staple of engineeringeducation. In Crismond and Adams’ (2012) Informed Design Teaching and Learning matrix, theability to conduct valid experiments was identified as a key design ability.33 From theperspective of engineering students, experimenting has been depicted as supplemental to andreinforcing of the general theory learned from lecture or a textbook.34 Therefore, the connectionbetween experimenting and innovation within engineering seems direct and pervasive.The
