All together, these activities have prepared us forprogress in the next phase of investigation about the efficacy of learning by evaluating. Theory of Action: Why LbE? Building on our pilot work with students, our theory of action is that the experience ofcomparing example work 1) meaningfully supports students’ design thinking mindset (helpingstudents think like designers), 2) critical thinking and reasoning (helping students to make andexplain decisions), and 3) ultimately their design performance (as students apply their thinking).These three variables are critical

teaching styles tend to rely on thedissemination of fundamental concepts in a lecture-style format with limited learner stimulation,active and experiential learning approaches prioritize both learner engagement and reflectionthroughout and often include lesson contextualization [9], [10].Although sometimes used synonymously, active learning and experiential learning are twoseparate pillars in modern education. The most widely accepted and cited definition of activelearning is provided by Bonwell and Eison in 1991 as: “Involving students in doing things andthinking about what they are doing [6].” Millis further elaborates on this definition and adds thatit often involves reflection and doing or taking action, and often uses cooperative

Fifty written reflections were analyzed from LAs from twoinstitutions who taught various STEM courses, including: chemical engineering, biologicalengineering, mechanical engineering, environmental engineering, chemistry, and biology. Thesereflections detail their thoughts about a chapter in Ilana Horn’s book [7], which discusses what itmeans to be “smart” in a mathematics classroom and ways to create instructional moves thatpromote more equitable learning environments and mitigate status differences.

].Indeed, education researchers advocate for integrating HCD in higher education curricula [14],[7]. When using an HCD approach, designers focus on the human elements in the project andimplement processes such as exploring, empathizing, reflecting, brainstorming, and iterating toidentify and connect with stakeholders, generate ideas, and create and test prototypes of solutions[10], [11]. Within HCD, solutions may be products, services, experiences, or changes.

Finally, looking back or reviewing is when one reflects on the finalproduct, thinking metacognitively about the entire process to improve upon the steps taken forfuture problems.General coding mistakes is one of the large barriers to success for students with no programmingexperience. Prior studies exploring student problem solving primarily focused on students’coding, debugging, and errors. These studies show that most errors can be categorized into ahandful of common errors that students with no prior experience make [9], [10], [11]. Focusingon these errors to find better ways to prevent students from making them is an importantendeavor. However, these errors do not solely come from coding itself

Many underrepresented students encounterdisconnects between formal instruction and their home experiences as the content often used inclassrooms does not reflect their community-based experiences. PBE addresses this challenge asit seeks to overcome this dissonance by leveraging learning from local surroundings [14]. InPBE, students are provided opportunities to explore local environments, phenomena, history, andeconomy in place.

Thestudents also see the relevance of their input towards their professional formation and the growthof the entrepreneurs and their startup companies. Another principle of experiential learning is thestudent’s ability to connect their experience to their professional formation through reflection [5,6].The students submit weekly reflection papers about what they have learned about innovation andentrepreneurship. They do this by reflecting on their interactions with industrial speakers andtheir experiences from their projects, as well as the book they read. The projects also makelearning active.
