Establishedconceptually in 2010, PBL and PBI are instructional approaches that cater to the individualismand multiculturalism of a student body. When students have the options to work on relevant,real-world problems in groups over a period of time, a more diverse population is able to developa deeper, more impactful, engaging, and well-rounded education when compared to traditionalstandardized learning approaches [17]. PBI and PBL often require team-based work, however thecommunity of practice established is more influential than teamwork alone [18]. The institutionalstructure that shares the

Twenty years ago, the National Academy ofEngineers [3] laid out a plan for what the “Engineer of 2020” would be defined by: leadership inmoving the world forward in an ethical, sustainable manner.

While this processmay appear linear and transactional, some design traditions, such as co-design, have emphasizedengaging users as partners throughout the design process [22] and have found that designerscontinue to develop and leverage new empathic insights throughout the development of individualdesign solutions [23].
