asa model to design new prototypes, which reflects the pertinence of DT in education.Nonetheless, in the Asian context, there is little research concerning applying DT inengineering education.The EDIPT modelSome popular DT models are Simon's three-stage linear, IDEO, and EDIPT models. Initially,DT courses in engineering and design were based on Simon's three-stage linear model,including analysis, synthesis, and evaluation [9]. IDEO expanded the DT model through aniterative Discover, Interpretation, Ideation, Experimentation, and Evaluation cycle toinnovate design work [41]. Stanford University's Educational Design Lab further integratedDT into curriculum and teaching practices by proposing the EDIPT model, currently the mostwidely adopted in

on certain subjects.The systems approach has been applied to the development of graduate/undergraduate teaming.In the Fall semester of 2004, we initiated a project in a senior design class in which twoundergraduates developed an Ultra Wide Band (UWB) communications system. This effortresulted in a presentation at the National Conference for Undergraduate Research [5]. In theFall semester of 2005, one of these students continued onto our Master of Science inTechnology program. We teamed this student with an undergraduate senior. In the 2005-2006academic year, this graduate/undergraduate team tested the UWB system under variousconditions and provided an analysis of the testing results. The graduate student was able totrain the undergraduate to

Interviewtranscripts were then coded by each researcher using these themes. Coding was conducted at theparagraph level and analyzed using NVivo8, a software package for qualitative data analysis.During the initial round of individual coding, additional sub-themes were identified by one orboth researchers. Following the initial coding, the two coding files were combined and boththemes and coding references were compared. Some sub-themes were deleted, combined, orreworded, resulting in a final count of

reflection on relating to participants: When I first started conducting qualitative research, I was very hesitant to let my ownidentities and ways of being influence the ways in which I conducted participant interviews infear of guiding the interview. Initially, I took a distanced approach to interviewing participants; Iwould not share any of my life experiences with them, I would not laugh if they told a joke. I justcontinued with my questions. However, as I gained experience and grew more skilled inconducting interviews, I realized that I had to do more than sit and ask questions, particularlywhen discussing a topic as personal as identity. Building the necessary participant rapport to gaindeeper insights into participants’ lives became

Itoffers a variety of degree programs through the colleges of liberal arts and sciences. It isalso set on a course to offer selected graduate programs in the near future. Facultymembers are expected to excel in areas of teaching, scholarship, and service. The normalfaculty load is 23-25 hours for the academic year, which leaves faculty with very littletime for research. In order to increase the faculty and student participation in researchactivities, the university initiated the Summer Research Institute (SRI) in 20021. Duringeach summer, SRI sponsors several
AC 2008-221: A SURVEY-BASED STUDY TO IDENTIFY METHODS FORACHIEVING POSITIVE OUTCOMES FOR UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCHERSTamara Floyd-Smith, Tuskegee University Page 13.121.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2008 A Survey-Based Study to Identify Methods for Achieving Positive Outcomes for Undergraduate Researchers Abstract This work describes the results of a survey administered to individuals involved inadministrating and supervising undergraduate research. The purpose of the survey is tounderstand what factors lead to positive outcomes for undergraduate researchers. Positiveoutcomes include undergraduates pursuing graduate degrees, pursuing
the true state of affairs. If their knowledge and beliefs are accurate, it can serve as apowerful foundation for further learning because it adds depth of experience. However, ifinaccurate, students may learn class content for a test and then revert back to their initial beliefsin later experiences. How People Learn states, “Numerous research experiments demonstrate thepersistence of preexisting understandings among older students even after a new model has beentaught that contradicts the naïve understandings.”3 Other research shows it is possible for peopleto have contradicting beliefs simultaneously and not realize it. Thus, unless the two beliefs aresimultaneously activated, they may coexist without being clarified. It is necessary for the
instructional resources and conducting research onengineering learning. Although there was a high level of faculty interest, an initial surveysuggested that many already engaged in engineering education scholarship felt isolated.Therefore, the first ISEE prioritized building local community and a scholarship of merit.

This program is being implemented initially by extending existing multidisciplinary research in networking, wireless communications, and business. For example, Virginia Tech’s Center for Wireless Communications includes participants from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, the College of Business, and other units. Faculty and students are already collaborating on research in cost-effective broadband wireless technologies that considers both technical issues, such as modems, radio frequency circuit design, and adaptive network protocols, and business issues, such as siting, deployment, and

Weemployed Braun and Clarke's [45] six-phase method for thematic analysis, which encompassedfamiliarizing yourself with data, generating initial codes, searching for themes, reviewing,defining, and naming the themes, and creating the report. Though the method is presented asbeing linear, we took an iterative and reflective process that involved constantly moving backand forth between phases [45], [46] and enriched with deep discussions among the coders todevelop themes. Agreements and disagreements were discussed through deep conversationsamong multiple researchers at different stages [47].The triangulation of data and following the trustworthiness criteria suggested by
