The IRB-approved survey discussed in this paper was administered after studentscompleted the TWC course and had time to reflect on the content of the course. Data wascaptured both online and through paper copy responses to the survey, depending on studentavailability and convenience. The questions essentially gaged the students’ perception of theirprofessional skills after the course.Using a standard five-level Likert scale with response levels indicating “strongly agree” through“strongly disagree,” the survey asked participates to indicate to what degree they agreed with asurvey statement.

As a result, improvement actions are defined and uploaded into SAEP eachsemester. At the end of the two-semester cycle a meeting with all faculty of each department isheld in which the results of the cycle are presented and discussed. The outcome of the meeting isa list of good practices shared by the faculty and a list of actions for improvement that will beconducted the following cycle.

throughexperiencing things and reflecting on those experiences. The core elements of theconstructivist approach are (a) knowledge is not passively received but actively built up bythe cognizing subject and (b) the function of cognition is adaptive and serves the organizationof the experiential world [16]. The constructivist theory is built on the concept that learning issomething the learner does, not that it is imposed on the learner, and emphasizes that thelearner actively constructs his knowledge [1]. In this process the student should be given theopportunity to explore in finding a design solution and learn or construct his/her knowledgein the process.Facilitating the constructivist learning relates to the choice of learning experience and refersto

Engineering Despite the country’s growing diversification, engagement in STEM is not reflecting thischange [2]. Understanding the still-present underrepresented racial minority students (URMs) iscomplex, as there are numerous barriers present in both secondary and post-secondaryeducational institutions such as deficits in academic advising, uninviting environments resultingfrom adverse stereotypes, inadequate access to information about college preparation [1], andlack of family, faculty, and peer support [3]. In addition to underrepresented racial minorities,women continue to be underrepresented in engineering fields and experience many of the samebarriers [4].

BME’s uniqueposition is illustrated in the varied structures of BME programs at institutions around the world.BME programs stem from electrical, mechanical, and materials engineering departments andmany programs partner with medical schools [1].

requires reflecting on what has been done[6,7]. To achieve this, students must not only practice a substantial quantity of assignments, they mustreceive feedback and then reflect on the experience. The value of feedback is well accepted. Theauthors of [8] state that prompt feedback is essential for students to improve their models and makesolid modeling more of an engineering design task and less of an art project; while both [2] and [4]contend that without feedback to remedy their models, students develop and perpetuate poor modelingstrategies. In spite of the obvious value, traditionally there is a significant time lag between theintroduction of a concept and the receipt of feedback by the student.

By the end of the class, an instructor would hope that the students have obtainedfundamental new knowledge, have the ability to transfer this to other contexts, and have initiatedan underlying interest and confidence in their abilities required to pursue a path of life-longlearning throughout their careers.Research and case studies have shown collaborative learning activities to be a very effectivemodel for teaching [6,8-12]. The effectiveness often relates to the amount of active learning [6,7,8,11,13], and the time for reflection on material during the activities [6, 7, 8]. At the same time,for groups to be effective they must have dynamics which are conducive to learning [14] andassignments must have sufficient complexity to make the

While engaging multiple senses, students can interact with otherstudents and reflect on how their understanding of some topic can be used to explain a particularphenomenon.
