tandem to achieve thechapter’s established goals. Figure 1 – ASEE-UPRM OrganizationOur main objective is to work with educational institutions and industries to improve engineeringeducation and promote student academic development and leadership skills. A secondary goal isto provide unique outreach experiences to high school students from around the island to increasetheir interest in pursuing a degree in STEM fields.1 To complete these goals, a series of activitieshave been designed, planned, and executed through the academic year.Members of the student chapter (all undergraduate engineering students) under the guidance ofour academic counselor have established an ambitious plan for this academic year.

properly define the problemand formulate a plan [4].Kohl’s work on representations in Physics is related because it shows differences in how novicesand experts solve problems [1]. The difference is that novices tend to use more representationsand switch between them more often. Experts tend to use fewer representations and solve theproblem in a more straightforward way. This work will focus on the first representations used byexperts and novices.Previous work has been done in starting design problems. Yang et. al. studied the relationshipbetween early stage design activity and design outcome. Aspects of design such as sketching,dimensioned drawings, prototyping, designer experience, and time spent were correlated withdesign success [5] [6]. It was

metacognitive regulation, there is most agreement surrounding four specific actions:planning, monitoring, control, and evaluation. Planning involves actions taken to help the learnerplan out their learning and cognitive tasks. Planning encompasses everything from gatheringappropriate resources to creating a time schedule for learning to the selection of a specificenvironment used for learning. Monitoring involves all actions that are used to determine if thecognitive task engaged in is on track to meet the intended goal. Monitoring can involve (but isnot limited to) checking progress on a particular task, checking understanding on a particularconcept, and checking that the procedure currently being used will reach the intended outcome.When a monitoring

the current structure is more guided than simply asking students about theirproblem-solving process. This structure requires less reflection on their own problem-solving process, butstill provides us with meaningful data. Cyclical resource use (using a resource early in the process andreturning in it) was lost in this iteration of the survey.Future Work In the future, we plan to continue analyzing the qualitative data from the Survey InstrumentVersion 2.2 to learn about possible differences in the data we collected. We also plan to add gradecorrelations to the specific responses on the Version 2.2 Survey Instrument to identify the resourcenetworks and combinations that proved to be the most productive for the students in the course

camps started.ResultsOnly two researchers received the opportunity to participate in this program, and unfortunately,this left us with an objectively small sample size. Other engineering students were spoken to in apublic setting, both former and current, on the potential benefits of the program.Both participants reported using skills learned during the program during their followingsemester at the university: Their 50 hours of coding experience was used to help sort data andconstruct graphs for classes. Their CAD experience came into play when they were able tomodel problems in an online space to assist in solving them. Their project oriented mind set gavethem an edge with planning and completing all assignments and projects on time

Weexpect each interview to last between 30-60 minutes. We are planning to conduct face-to-face orvideo conference interviews with the Vietnamese engineering researchers. The interviews will beaudio recorded and transcribed verbatim by one researcher, and a second researcher will reviewthe transcribed text for accuracy. If any clarification of the data will be necessary, follow-upemails will be carried out. Transcripts will be shared with the Vietnamese engineeringresearchers and

different elements when it comes to defining asuccessful learning experience, it is important that educators keep that in mind when creatingassignments and evaluating group work.Future ResearchIn the future, we aim to conduct discussions with a wider range of students to get a broaderpicture of students’ perceptions. Getting a good number of participants from both collectivist andindividualist cultures in the discussions is also a key goal we have.We also plan to talk with a diverse set of faculty present in the campus and ask them about thebasis on which they form teams and whether or not they consider the aforementioned factorswhile building a team. We would also ask them their thoughts on getting directly involved tohelp resolve team
