Analysis of the post-design session interviews revealed the influence that the disciplinary/organizational cultures ofboth ECE and BME had on (1) the effectiveness of design thinking toward culture change, and(2) where change occurred (e.g., individual versus systemic levels). Reflecting a more limiteddesign culture within the school, the stakeholders in the ECE design sessions recognized andacknowledged limitations in their ability to make large-scale change within ECE.

Individuals hold multiple identities all of which are dynamic, yet provideindividuals a sense of consistency and stability by connecting the past with one’s (perceived) futuretrajectory through providing an answer to the question, who am I? Importantly, the self-meanings thatconstitute one’s identity are built up from social interactions and the reflected appraisals of others.
