In that book, Covey2 describes aprogression from dependence to independence, followed by interdependence. This closely mirrorsthe ideal path of a Computer Science student: they start in lower level classes being dependent onthe instructor and the textbook in order to acquire the

For example, in the sentence “We need some more hands on the project,” hands refer to people.• Analogy is a broad category encompassing any figure of speech involving a comparison of domains [32], and therefore, metaphor is “a species” of analogy [3].

However the concerns proved unfounded and the students were able tocomplete the wiring successfully in teams of four within the 2 hour lab time. To help the process,the instructor station was wired ahead of the lab and left as an example for the students.After the first week, the wiring was left in place and modified as needed in following labs. Inthose weeks the students were able to add sensors and actuators to satisfy weekly lab exercises.At the conclusion of the semester students were given more elaborate projects where they neededto connect their station to control a piece of equipment like a conveyor and can crusher.At the time of final submission the

Behavioral intentions are particularly useful when a goal is eithercomplex and needs to be broken into component steps to achieve or when a goal is simple butrequires self regulation. For instance, a student in a course with a major final project will bemore successful if they form intentions for each of the component steps, rather than simplyhaving a goal to “do well on the project” without more specific plans ​[9]​; a student in a coursewith a heavy reading load may need to form the intention to do a little reading every day, ratherthan trying to push through

Thisfinding is consistent with results from the “Academic Pathways Study” (NSF ESI #0227558),which showed that female undergraduates saw projects in the broader context of social andenvironmental impact while males typically focused on more technical details [24]. In order todevelop engineering students prepared to address particular sustainability challenges, it isnecessary to diversify the types of outcome expectations of students in engineering.

The students were limited to 8-ft long 2x4s,plywood, and common nails. Therefore, connections would require plywood gusset plates nailedto the 2x4 structural components. Part of the design process required RSA simulations toquantify internal forces throughout the structure and required the students to decide if modelingthe connections as perfect pins was a reasonable assumption.

Is such a numerical marker valuable to a learner in reflecting on their progress andaccumulated knowledge? The broad answer to such questions is that points are largely arbitrary,varying wildly in meaning across institutions, courses, or even across assignments.Trends in pedagogy have shifted strongly in the direction of more experiential, authentic learningactivities such as project-based and active learning.
