Professor David Beach, the Director of thePRL explains that: “learning [in the PRL] aims to engage the whole student through a process ofall-in creation” [13, p.4].Stanford students join the PRL community through research, personal projects, and roughly 35courses that use the space each year. A primary gateway into the PRL is ME203:“Design andManufacturing,” a longstanding course in which students practice designing and making througha series of hands-on labs (e.g., milling, turning, sand casting, forming, welding) and thedevelopment, design, and fabrication of an individual project. Projects are encouraged to bemeaningful to each student and range widely from, for example, “Cezve,” a machined Turkishcoffee

Other times, an intriguing Program Solicitation (e.g., NSF), Request forApplications (NIH), Broad Agency Announcement (DOD), Funding Opportunity Announcement(DOE), or another communication piece from funding agencies may aid in the generation of ideasfrom which proposal development coalesces from various seemingly unconnected pieces already inplace within the collaborating team. Ultimately, the pre-proposal submission process iscomplicated, highly non-linear, very interactive, and driven by the continued fuel from ideas byteam members. We argue that such a rich process is, at the same time, navigable and majorlysuccessful due to this driving force centered on teamwork, which requires a

As a consequence, practice entails the negotiation of ways of being a person in that context. … In this sense, the formation of a community of practice is also the negotiation of identities.‖35Along these lines, the retention of students in engineering can be viewed as moving studentstoward full membership in the engineering community of practice, including facilitating theirpersonal identification with engineering.The question then becomes, how can the entry into the engineering community of practice befacilitated?
