as compared to first-year students. The lower expectation of seniorstudents suggest that engineering instructors should consider ways to engage upper level studentsin creative behaviors. Future research includes a longitudinal study to examine how creative self-concept changes in progression through the engineering curriculum.Introduction The concept of creativity has been an important research topic since the 1950’s and1960’s.1 Educators and scholars with diverse domains of expertise have studied creativity, theskills associated with creativity, and techniques to increase creativity in their respective fields.2-6However, even in the field of psychology, where the most research pertaining to the topic hasbeen produced, researchers

In graduate school,underrepresented minorities comprise 17.7 percent of overall enrollment but are awarded just14.6 % of S&E master’s and 5.4 % of S&E doctorate degrees, with a progressive loss ofrepresentation as one proceeds up the academic ladder [5].Researchers offer many explanations for the persistent achievement gaps while recognizing thatthere are many interrelated factors. They agree that family and community differences, schoolcontext, low expectations, and lack of exposure to role models, information about careeropportunities, and advanced

civilengineering faculty have sought to develop their program appropriately along a set of commonlyaccepted educational taxonomies; that is, Bloom’s Taxonomy. These widely known taxonomiesare based on the seminal work of the 1950’s educational committee chaired by Benjamin Bloom.The committee established a set of taxonomies in three domains of learning: cognitive, affectiveand psychomotor. The cognitive domain taxonomy is widely accepted in many fields and hasbeen identified as, “arguably one of the most influential education monographs of the past halfcentury.”3 The taxonomies are a language that describes the progressive development of anindividual in each domain and are defined as follows:4  Cognitive: of, relating to, being, or involving

the early 2000’s, but the problems were often posed as already defined tasks, that while open-ended in possible solutions, provided the students all of the outside information that they need to develop the model. In practice, we have found that when working on MEAs, students often misunderstand the problem or the client’s needs and wants early in the problem-solving cycle. The three activities presented here are MEAs that have been modified to better scaffold the problem-defining phase of the design cycle and to support students in developing problem-scoping skills.

to tell where an output originated withoutcontext; fortunately, the utterance “I had a thought” communicates clearly the idea originatedwith S1. Considering S2’s response in line two it is evident that there is some confusion on theusefulness of differentials, making the discussion inherently valuable. S1: I had a thought. Are we going to have differential temperature within the differential length? S2: I’m not sure…why we need a derivative this way? This [current equation] seems accurate, because… S1: If you have a differential length are you concerned with the temperature within that…at that length? Because this temperature is dependent on the length, right? So, I guess it’ll be just dT/dl…but then… S3

byadaptation.In an ideal setting, participants in a transdisciplinary project would have immediate feedback onthe effects of their actions. They would then adapt through small-scale experimentation and learnfrom the results [33]. For example, in the theoretical project on water catchment, participantsmay have a theory that water features with sustainable gardens would lead to greater sense ofcommunity and less crime. This theory could be tested with a prototype project and inquiry intochanges into the sense of community. The feedback would lead to further adjustments. Assuggested by Waddock et al.’s [9], an adaptive evaluation framework would adhere to theheuristics to “prioritize learning in the context of constant change,...work with co-evolution
