. The self-assessment form can be found in Appendix A. In general, very few students are aware of ABETor of its student outcomes [11]. By having the students participate in the self-assessment processand reflect on their experiences, each student is able to identify outcomes which have not beenachieved and develop a plan to achieve all ABET outcomes prior to graduation. This proactiveself-assessment prompts students to identify weak points in their education and has the potentialto shape better student outcomes, filling all the ABET student outcomes and preparing studentsto be well-rounded engineers.[12].

Network Analysis (ENA)One possible strategy for analyzing the connections between these frame elements is ENA, amethod that uses coded data to find temporal connections between ideas within an individual orcommunity. Each of these codes are represented as a node in the network, and edges betweennodes represent the strength of an individual or community’s connection between those twocodes. For example, epistemic network analysis has been used to investigate how engineeringidentity emerges as students participate in a medical device company simulation [12], howstudents develop an epistemic frame when completing an urban planning simulation [13], andhow engineering values and epistemology emerge as students participate in a four-weekengineering
