Page 23.908.9Specific exercises have been designed over several semesters to assess ABET outcomes. Thishistorical record allows retrospective analysis of the impact of delivery methodology on specificoutcomes. All classes have met the specific measured outcomes for 2010-2012 with negligibledifference among years. Interestingly, the same results are achieved for peer-reviewedpresentation assessment and instructor-reviewed assessment.

These advancements, in various direct and indirect ways, provide frameworks for learningthrough open-ended problems, creative problem-solving, and engagement in service-learning and society-based projects. The work reported in this paper builds upon these foundations and advancements. Figure 1.

Significant findings include faculty perceptions of both the value of andbarriers to implementing a PEL component in gateway engineering courses and an underlyingunderstanding of the need for increased student engagement in the engineering curriculum.Literature ReviewFor most college majors, the first year is the most critical for persistence in college. Tinto3observed that almost one-half of students entering two-year colleges and more than one-fourth ofstudents entering four-year collegiate institutions leave at the end of their first year.

subjects and settings (Johnson and Christensen 2010). Every research study needsto include appropriate or representative samples of the target population to be able to makegeneralizations. MBT studies through inter-subject replication enhance external validity. Alsoliterature suggests whenever necessary to use of clustered groups based on demographics orbehavior and to reduce systematic variability 27 through which logical generalizations can bemade.Finally, each study is conducted on a sample of subjects in a specific setting. In order to ensuregeneralization beyond the sample to the target population, sufficiently large samples 55 must berandomly assigned to the study and the study must be conducted under sufficient differentsettings 31
