new ways to support first-year students and enhance retention. According tothe Association of American Colleges and Universities (AAC&U), High-Impact Practices (HIPs)offer significant educational benefits, especially for historically underserved groups, bycultivating substantive relationships, promoting engagement across diverse perspectives,facilitating the application of acquired knowledge, and fostering reflective processes aimed atpersonal development [1]. Students involved in HIPs are more likely to experience positiveoutcomes like academic achievement, persistence, and attainment of goals that prepare a studentto live a rewarding life [2].

. Professional identity is cultivated intentionally inschools of engineering [14]. It is further shaped by experiences in practice and involves not onlyexplicit knowledge, such as how to apply engineering principles, but also in implicit knowledgethat is learned from colleagues, mentors, and leaders in the organization [1]. Implicit knowledgeinforms PIF [1], [2], [4]. It is situated, that is, tied to the particular topic or problem that is beingsolved [15]. This knowledge is subsumed into the identity of professionals. Reflective practice asoutlined by Schön is also an aspect of PIF. Identity is shaped not only by the community ofpractice, but also by constant reflection on action [16-18] and is essential to the emergence ofexpertise.TeamsIn formal

Infact the calculus of variations and the principle of least action were seen as teleological, meaning theyseem to reflect design and purpose. What we have learned from recent research in complex systems,nonlinear dynamics, and cellular automata is that relatively simple, but nonlinear, governing equationsand relationships among parts can lead to complex phenomena and also what has been called “emergentbehavior” or “self-organization”.This hypothetical watchmaker is where the engineer and educator come in.
