using this method of solution-finding that iscommonly used for scientific discovery. In science, analogies are used to find new hypotheses bycomparing the current unknown problem with a solved case that has some similarities, promptingone to ask if both can be understood in the same way. In engineering, using an analogy may actthe same way. By saying problem A is basically the same as problem B, it follows that theexisting solution to problem B may also work for problem A.15 Thus, by thinking of analogies toteach teammates about one’s discipline, one practices using this method of finding a solution.However, as mentioned above, for students to engage in this knowledge transfer, and to discussand debate different solutions, the capstone team
