Taking intoaccount all these technical elements and their interfaces, interactions and interdependencies inthe design of an aircraft is a major challenge. The challenge is intensified when one realizes thatmodern aircraft have lifecycles measured in many decades. To cite just two examples from theAppendix, the DC-9 family of aircraft will have been in service with major airlines for 45 yearsand the B-52H with the U.S. Air Force for at least 75 years when they are finally phased out.a Usage of the word “system” or “systems” varies within the field.

Over more than a decade, members of this multi-disciplinary team have collaborated across roles, projects, and institutions to address a long-standing problem: low success rates for students who begin in community college, transfer touniversities, and complete degrees in engineering. Through evidence-informed practice, we haveused qualitative and quantitative data, professional experience, and prior research to drivestudent-centered change.We use qualitative [2] and quantitative data to examine how a group of practitionerssubstantively improved transfer outcomes from community colleges into engineering.

This outcome though may havebeen influenced by students primarily interacting with the TE at the end of the semester. Theselimited interactions with the TE also caused the strategy to have little influence on how studentsactively approached completing homework assignments and studying for quizzes. However, thegrade-altering actions provided by the TE gave some level of stress reduction to students as theywere completing assignments with the knowledge that major mistakes on assignments could bealleviated through a resubmission or grade drop. This promising finding shows that TEs as anundergraduate classroom instruction strategy has influence beyond behavior

The same group of students was asked why the differencebetween the top two temperatures was different that the difference between the bottom twotemperatures. Amazingly, a large number of students thought it was caused by different amountsof heat being transferred through the top and bottom parts rather than being caused by differentmaterial properties.

While at DeVry, Spencer expanded his programming skills by learning C++, Java, C (for specific TI microcontroller programming), assembly code (for TI MSP 432), and Python. He spent considerable time working on programming a variety of microcontrollers including Arduino, Raspberry Pi, TI MSP 432, and TI TM4C123G. With this knowledge, Spencer designed an automated microcontroller controlled car with proximity – object detection as well as auxiliary functions, such as automatic lighting control and temperature control.

Hatano and colleagues theorized that adaptive expertise could be distinguished through boththe capacity to modify approaches to a task (in response to shifting requirements, goals, andcircumstances) and through the ability to explain the underlying principles guiding an approachto a task [7], [8]. As Anthony et al., explain, the pursuit of adaptive expertise is the pursuit ofknowledge of “why and under which conditions certain approaches have to be used or newapproaches have to be devised” [21].Given the increasing focus on preparing students to thrive in complex environments, learningscientists

it is truly important. This is again a topic I try to have an honest conversation about with myself. If I am slipping into comparative and competitive mindsets, I remind myself that all of us are different and there’s not really any comparison, and all of this work (improving education in engineering) is important beyond the accolades and achievements. This can be easier said than done when many systems and academic cultures seem built to compare and evaluate us, but overall it gives us a healthier relationship to each other and to ourselves.“A PhD is a marathon, pace yourself.” Some of us might have gotten through prior milestones (college, high school) by cramming for tests or
