of improving students’ development along one or more of the patterns. Additionally, we believe CSR is a particularly appropriate method for this study because the method permits teaching practices to be studied in the context of a real classroom. The classroom setting within our case study contrasts the laboratory setting used by a large number of studies that have informed the development of the matrix (e.g., [6][9]). The controlled conditions of these research studies do not accurately reflect engineering practice which often requires engineers to work on teams over long durations to solve complex problems. Additionally, the clinical setting does not reflect an educational setting in which a teacher is available to help guide and
