experiences. Incorporating HIPs into courses canincrease student engagement and learning. The only way HIPs can significantly impact a courseis if the faculty are equipped with the proper pedagogical tools to adopt them in theirclassrooms. Towards this goal, the New York Institute of Technology Center for Teaching andLearning conducted a 5-day summer Course Design Institute (CDI). During the CDI, facultyparticipants read the book [3], designed or redesigned courses built on learner-centered designprinciples, developed a revised final or near-final syllabus, and learned how to apply research-based teaching and learning principles to course design.

We have found theirpost-capstone insight to provide a unique lens through which to understand the studentexperience. Recently, a peer mentor suggested that we develop tools to help teams to processintra-team criticism, such as critique of a team member’s proposed approach by fellow teammembers.
