As a template, the framework should accommodate a variety of paths through the design process but also support a particular path should the instructor specify one.  Being extendable to include other context themes such as cultural, societal, environmental, sustainable, and ethical. A key measure of design process success is developing a solution in a broader market and societal context.  Creating a framework to encourage creativity and innovation by

Theauthors reported that students did not appear to watch the videos unless assigned to do so. Acomputer science course documented by Hsin and Cigas [6] used short videos and reported apositive impact in that students were more satisfied with the course, were less likely to withdraw,and were more likely to pass the course. Itani [3] examined survey results for 92 students andconcluded that videos were a beneficial tool for learning engineering ethics.

Before moving from onestage to another, designers are encouraged to take time to pause and reflect in order to makedecisions that are evidence based, ethical, and equitable. Thus, socially engaged designrecommends designers to be reflective practitioners—to look back at both their design processand current design outcomes at regular intervals [73]. Different decision points will requiredifferent kinds of reflection but generally designers may be asking themselves: Do I have enoughinformation to move forward? What information is still missing?
