Design teams’ actions were further contextualized in terms their designtimeline and the sites they explored.Results from design team analytics have implications not only for teams’ design process, butmay be re-deployed as reflection tools for students’ or progress indicators for teachers or designmentors.In the next section the paper reviews research in learning analytics and visualization for dataanalysis.

In each divergent thinking exercise, students were asked to generate multiple ideas fora given “problem” under a strict time constraint. After each exercise, a facilitated reflection sessionallowed for students to learn the idea generation approaches that were used by their peers. Weexamined the effectiveness of the DTSD module using two measures: (1) changes in self-perceptions of creative ability and mindsets and (2) reflections on the influence of DTSD training.Questionnaires containing the Short Scale of Creative Self and Creative and Fixed Mindsetmeasures were administered before

Our setting, because of the five-year effortto engage all faculty in better meeting diverse student needs, provided an opportunity toinvestigate both groups of faculty. Our study reports on the first four years of the project.The departmental change effort included several strategies, guided by an engineering educationresearcher, to bring about change: threading design challenges through core chemicalengineering courses; switching from bleed-all-over-it, long technical reports to cycles of drafts,peer and instructor feedback, and revision and reflection; and developing ways to assess andsupport professional skills like teamwork

Afterresponses were collected the instructor presented the histogram of responses and followed withsome discussion, often getting students to explain their rationale for particular answers. In arelatively small number of cases, students answered individually, then engaged in peerdiscussion, and then answered again before there was any general discussion. In almost allcases, this led to a higher percentage of correct answers. Whatever discussion format was used,the instructor summarized what was right and wrong with each answer in an attempt to leave thecorrect message with the

Anexperiential learning model consisting of a four-stage cycle was proposed by Kolb 9 based on thecontributions of the works of Dewey 10 and Piaget. 11 The premise of this model can be stated as:“the process of learning requires the resolution of conflicts between dialectically opposed modesof adaptation to the world.” 9 It can be seen that the experiential learning process is cyclic innature. At closer inspection this model is similar to the scientific method, as follows: concreteexperience = observe behavior or experiment, reflective observation = analysis or problemdefinition, abstract conceptualization = hypothesis, and active experimentation = testing
