Description¶

The article presents and analyzes three case studies showing the evolution of three disciplinary course modules. Each case study documents how a module was transformed using the framework and what learning outcomes resulted. The case studies serve as concrete demonstrations of the framework applied in different disciplinary contexts, providing the empirical grounding for the article's claims about motivation, efficiency, and employer alignment.

Design Implications¶
