However, despite evidencepointing to deeper learning and development of critical thinking skills when enough opportunityfor reflection is included in service-learning [2]-[3], reflection is not widely used in engineering[3].

Specifically, students who effectively employ metacognitivestrategies, such as reflection and self-assessment, are more likely to master the problem solvingskills that are essential to programming success [3].Writing to learn (WTL) activities promote metacognition in any discipline. Based on the ideathat writing is a visual representation of thinking [4], WTL activities are usually short, low-stakes writing assignments that are designed to promote reflection, analysis, synthesis, anddeeper understanding of course material. When integrated into a problem-solving assignment,such as a programming lab, WTL prompts allow students to think about the choices they aremaking and the reasons for those choices. When

Thus,formal efforts within ECE have been made to bridge cultural differences, develop interculturalcompetencies, and promote inclusion of internationally and domestically diverse ECE members.However, these efforts have met with mixed results.
