We envision this type of modulehappening earlier in the semester, thereby later in the semester, we would build on this work byhaving students write individual reflexivity statements to discuss how their identities,background, and lived experiences might relate to the design space in which they are working.AcknowledgementsWe would like to thank the authors of the framework and

The simple framing and proven results havemade mindset theory and the psychological lens attractive and popular, especially in K-12education. The existence of valid and reliable survey items [23] allows educators or researchersto measure these powerful beliefs for a given individual in a rather simple and straightforwardway.

In addition to the weekly communication course, participants from all of the Center’s summer research programs—including YSP students—attended a weekly seminar series. Topics varied slightly from year to year. For example, the summer 2014 seminar series included the following topics: responsible conduct of research, ethics of animal research, neuroethics, industry, communicating to lay audiences, and applying to graduate school.

In addition, design challenges require both teamwork andindividual participation. This allows students to practice working with peers, similar to workingwithin a community of professionals.

Summarizing social theorist Max Weber’s classicconcepts of bureaucratic organizations, Gorman and Mosseri [2] write: In the prototypical bureaucratic organization, work is divided into well‐defined, nonoverlapping jobs that remain fixed for substantial periods of time. The performance of work is governed by written rules specifying the appropriate way to handle different categories of situations, so that workers' individual discretion is limited. Each role reports to a superior one in a
