Design Signatures in the Wild Team

The Design Signatures in the Wild team began meeting in early 2023. These meetings started as a way for these educators to share the resources they use for their work, overlapping engineering and design, and to brainstorm ways to move forward. They shared a common goal to promote design awareness and reflectiveness in their engineering students.
