After I need to finish the log, I will use the options on the log to plan what I will do in class or after class. For journaling reasons, I tried something I hadn't done before. Because of the participation log, I began to take notes in class and communicate with my classmates about the question that I have.

Some of these experiences fulfillthe rigorous definition of service-oriented learning (SoL), while others meet some but not allrequirements. However, by exploring this instructional approach that is providing a frameworkfor an authentic learning experience, a comprehensive and sustainable plan is needed to ensure asuccessful, synergistic integration of service-oriented learning in an engineering pedagogicalframework.

We have highlighted a few ofour plans in the list below.  Although the projects are meant to be mostly self-guided by student teams, we need to develop tutorials to better guide student learning of new skills (e.g., use of finite element analysis software, physical computing in Python).  Student

First,they offer students a contextualized experience for cumulative knowledge-building and then anopportunity to present that knowledge in ways consistent with a vertical knowledge structure thatthe community of scientists and engineers both understands and values. Second, too often labnotebooks are trivialized as simple recounts. That may provide some explanation for the lack ofguidance.
