. Local constraints toimplementation have to be addressed and situating the professional development content in alocal context is important to teachers’ perceptions that they will be able to implement what theylearned. Teachers are also more interested in the professional development activities when theysee direct links with their existing curricula. These are fundamentals in adult learning theory.In almost every case, teachers are fully involved in the STEM and problem-solving processesthat are targeted to be implemented in the schools. The focus is on process rather than onmemorization. The real-life, hands-on, context provides authenticity, relevancy, and motivationto learn. Teachers are helped to reflect on what they are learning, the

In hindsight, this appears to be a correct decision asthe majority of our students have been fully engaged in the program without adding traditionalquizzes to this non-traditional course.Assessment of ProgramThe overarching goal of this program is to increase the cultural competence of engineering studentsthrough an abroad experience. Based on lessons learned from the American University Center ofProvence (AUCP), the eight fundamental elements of an abroad program that were found to havethe most impact on student intercultural learning are:6 1. Clarity of purpose 2. Clarity of learning goals 3. Cultural immersion 4. Holistic design 5. Challenge and support 6. Reflection and analysis 7. Student accountability

matters. (p. 123)A separate but related phenomena to creativity is innovation. Specifically, based on extensiveinterviews with serial innovators, Dyer, Gregersen, and Christensen (the authors of theInnovator’s) DNA postulate that innovators tend to be avid questioners, observers,experimenters, and idea networkers. They framed these four phenomena as the “behavioraltendencies” of serial innovators. In alignment with the Innovator’s DNA, we identify innovationas much more than a function of the brain but also a function of behaviors [7]. In the context ofengineering design, to be an innovative engineer requires the act of doing or creating.We recognize that behavior is fundamentally contingent upon one’s inner drives, motivations,values, self

SLRs differ from typical ‘narrative’ literature review (borrowing Borrego’s terminology) inthat it employs “transparent, methodical, and reproducible procedures” [1]. SLR is anappropriate technique for addressing our research question because it provides a systematicmethod for selecting and synthesizing the results of high quality studies from a large database.Furthermore, the field of research in pedagogical techniques for teaching introductory circuits ismature enough to warrant such a review, an important criteria for carrying out a successful SLR[1].Writing about SLRs presents semantic challenges which necessitate clarity and
