Instead, they weretangled non-linear webs of activities – exactly what is needed to solve messy tangled problems.And their drawings contained a high number of non-traditional design topics - economic, ethical,historical, social and political impact - that were integrated into the traditional design process. Inessence, they had learned to view engineering design in a wider context.Without grades or credits, our role becomes that of a cognitive coach - a motivator, guide andemotional support.

design. The specific context of studentlearning discussed here is based on experiences from a course forinternational engineering students at KTH Royal Institute of Technology,Sweden. The course aim is to train students in critically analyzing therole of national identities, social- and technological engineering andpolitics in shaping Swedish society. One challenge is to enableengineering students to develop skills in critical thinking by engagingwith texts from social sciences and humanities dealing with topicsformulated in the course aim. Reading, writing and discussing texts onhistorical and contemporary examples are used to attain learningoutcomes, relating to both course content as well as practical skills ofcritical reflection, reasoning

Students’ firsthand discovery of presentation weaknesses and negativespeaking habits increases their awareness of such behavior in subsequent experiences. Thepotential impact of this study is twofold. First, it provides students with a platform to analyzetheir own communication skill, take ownership of their findings, and make improvements theythemselves discover. Second, it seeks to minimize extraneous work for the instructor.The study investigates the efficacy of student-based evaluations.

The field’s topical foci are also something of a moving target given a long and episodichistory of efforts to reinvent the form and content of engineering curricula. As the methods anddesired outcomes of engineering instruction change, so does the engineering education researchagenda. Further worth noting are rising pressures to relate research to practice, as reflected inmandates to identify the “broader impacts” associated with scholarly work in the field.This paper speaks to these challenges through the lens of our team’s recent experiences workingon a

The presenceof explanatory behaviors was used to evaluate alignment of students’ decisions in selecting anidea for further design and testing. Data from 44 high school students and 132 design solutionswere analyzed. Results show that students became increasingly more reflective with eachsubsequent design. In addition, students were more likely to cite data in their reflectiveexplanations.

Metacognition has been described as reflection aboutactions1. It has also been defined by connection prior knowledge with the learning of a new task andwhat are the skills required to do so2. Reflection exercises include introspection on your ownknowledge, ability, motivation by answering specific questions3. The idea of “writing to learn” hasbeen investigated in education courses4, and preliminary findings suggest that there may be nochange in student success in the course in which it is implemented, but that students develop anappreciation

This paper reports on initial findings of a qualitative study inwhich a workshop on the Study Cycle was taught to a class of second-year IndustrialEngineering students as an intervention, aiming to understand effects of the module onengineering students’ SRL strategy use in an engineering course. Students self-reported SRLstrategy use in a one-minute paper pre-workshop and two sets of post-workshop reflections. Thispaper examines
