Her research interests include exploring the role of noncurricular engineering education initiatives in the
practices of experienced educators in wellestablished undergraduate engineering design courses. Our research seeks to answer questions about how instruction is adjusted throughout the duration of an engineering design course to help students sequence an array of engineering design activities into coherent engineering design practices. Our research adopts the informed design teaching and learning matrix as a lens for viewing design activities [1], [2]. This WIP paper is limited to exploring teaching strategies targeting a single focal engineering design pattern – troubleshooting – within a cornerstone engineering design course. Using interview data and classroom observations, we seek to provide rich descriptions of how teaching strategies
