multiplepedagogical innovations emerged (e.g., collaborative and active learning, project and problembased learning, and more technology in the classroom) and great amount of information wasexchanged among participants. However, the diffusion and adoption of these innovations wererare within participant institutions and those who did not participate.2 From there, a large seriesof studies tried to understand the main challenges associated to processes of change inengineering schools.Clark, Froyd, Merton, and Richardson (2004) focus on the perspective of those leading thechanges promoted by the Foundation Coalition.3 At an initial stage of the program, leaders’ andauthorities’ approaches to curricular innovation followed a product development process.3

and university engineering curricula in the US have been following similartrajectories for some time. In the early 1900’s, engineering was treated more as a ‘trade’ at theuniversity level, and high schools encouraged vocational studies, including auto repair, woodshop, metalworking, cosmetology and other ‘trades’ to the non-college bound. Between 1935and 1965, most university engineering curriculum moved away from a trade-school curriculumto a more theoretical, mathematically-intensive one, delaying any hands-on design projects untilthe senior or ‘capstone’ design course 11.Similarly, the nation’s high schools tried to erase the division between the trades and the college-preparatory tracks to prepare anyone who might be inclined to attend a
