American c Society for Engineering Education, 2022 WIP: Investigating the relationship between FYE students’ reflections and academic performance across genderAbstractPrior studies have emphasized the importance of reflective process and reflection activities asthey facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. In the context of First-YearEngineering (FYE) courses, reflection activities engage students with the learning content,specifically with concepts that are traditionally considered as a threshold

assignments completed. Required assessments hadcriteria-based rubrics indicating what was needed to achieve correct/incorrect orexcellent/adequate/insufficient levels. Correct and excellent or adequate marks on the criteriameant that the student successfully completed the assignment. If students received incorrect orinsufficient, the assignment did not count toward meeting contract requirements. However,students could revise and resubmit the assignment along with a reflection (metacognitivecomponent) on what was missed and how they could avoid incorrect or insufficient marks in thefuture. All submissions were manually graded within a learning management system.Results and discussionAt the end of the course, students completed a survey about their

., judging) student work on these two tasks. Participation in actual ACJ panelswill enable judges to gain a “feel” for what this assessment technique entails and how it couldbe used to enhance first-year engineering students learning experiences. At the end of theFYEE conference, results from the panels will be available for those who are interested.AcknowledgementThis work was made possible by a grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF#2020785).

swayed by characteristics andperceptions of students, instructors must approach the practice with a complete understanding ofwhat those ratings reflect. Establishing best practices for peer assessment in how it is conducted,determining the subject matter, and how it is reviewed is integral to the growth of small learningpractices and its positive impacts on the student experience.References[1] M.
