The results of scoping projects with sponsors and collecting the first courseassignment from students are combined to develop a master plan that maps the student majorswith the disciplinary requirements for each project. Project teams may include participationfrom multiple engineering disciplines depending upon project requirements. Each project isunique and involves specific domain knowledge pertinent to the problem at hand. To helpstudents develop the necessary domain knowledge, project descriptions are

. Some representative quotes are: “The REU gave me a taste of grad school. Before I started the REU, I had a fuzzy idea of getting a masters sometime later. Now I plan on getting a PhD before I start to work.” “After the first week of the program I was unsure if I could continue due to a mixture of intimidation, nervousness, and overall uncertainty regarding whether I had what it took to contribute to the research instead of holding it back. I explained my doubts to [my advisor]; just having him take time out to talk to and reassure me rejuvenated my confidence and inspired me to believe that I had what it took. I accredit the rest of my progress in the program to that experience and I’m grateful

This work hasmostly been at the K-12 level; but argumentation is even more important for undergraduates in en-gineering and computing (and other STEM fields). Not only will argumentation help engineeringstudents master concepts, it will also better prepare them for their professional careers where theycan expect to engage in vigorous arguments about trade-offs in various approaches to addressingproblems in their design/implementation projects.Prior research has shown that some key requirements must be met to ensure that argumentationis most productive: The argumentation must be in small groups of 4–5 students each; each groupmust include students with different approaches to the topic; and the

further increase the self-efficacy of the returning LTC? These questions and morecould be answered by comparing survey results from the pilot study with those of the 2018expansion of the study. Finally, it is hypothesized that incorporating additional pre-service teachers as both LTCand LT could produce a more cohesive leadership team. In 2017, engineering students still filleda large portion of leadership, and many of these students were enrolled in summer courses orcommitted to other priorities. A number of engineering students in leadership is still desirable forproviding role models and content masters, but by having more teachers in these positions, thegoals and expectations of the leadership team could be better aligned, resulting in

To solve the problem, students need to learnrelevant knowledge first, to learn to use new software or new machines, new operational methods,all of which can be a self-directed process.“In fact, I think the self-exploration process is a very straightforward process.

seem to be masters of divergent thinking, creating a diverse range of ideas without(or with very little) inhibition. Figure 1: Two phases of creativity [8].The study of creativity in engineering education is becoming increasingly popular, but it tends tobe associated with courses on design (and there, only in idea generation) [9]. Likewise, there areonly a few short courses specifically focused on engineering leadership (e.g., EngineeringLeadership at MIT [10] and Leadership Development for Engineers at Rice University [11]), andeven fewer of these courses make creativity a specific focus (e.g., LJMU’s Leadership Skillsmodule).
