Conjecturemapping involves the explicit delineation of specific conjectures and their anticipatedinteractions to facilitate learning [18].

This could involveprofessional development workshops to train educators in Scrum and other agile frameworks,as well as the redesign of course structures to incorporate these methodologies. Moreover, thestudy suggests the need for educational institutions to rethink traditional feedback mechanismsand embrace more

Throughout recentyears, the course (referred to as CEE 190) has been overhauled from a one-credit seminar-basedcourse to a four-credit project-based course.The changes to the course were motivated by department-wide efforts to incorporate curriculumrevisions that better prepare engineering students for graduation and professional practice. Fiveskills were identified to be taught and reinforced at each curriculum level, as demonstrated byFigure 1. Figure 1.

This adds a further dimension to the typical advisor roleof academic guidance, career direction, moral support, and encouragement. The advisor nowbecomes a research manager and mentor as well.In many cases, this trend has led to the integration of undergraduate research directly into theacademic curriculum. After graduation many of the students will be involved in the application,dissemination, and creation of knowledge, or in other words research. As a result it becomes anatural extension of the classical inquiry oriented curriculum to include aspects of research
