project.Many of the ideas presented by the students had strong potential for future development due tobeing effective solutions to challenges in many vital fields. By producing the first prototypes,students had an opportunity to understand the engineering challenges they may have to overcometo have fully functional prototypes if they decided to take their idea further.Building the prototype is a crucial first step to convince investors, customers and peers tointroduce, design and iterate products before being released to the markets. Having severaliterations is vital to get customers’ feedback and analyze strengths and weaknesses of the design.The collaboration between the writing course and EEP enabled the students to have a quickintroduction into

between abstract concepts and the practice of their profession [30].The benefits of professional practice in the undergraduate educational experience are numerous.Students that get to view and participate in activities typical of those within their professionduring their collegiate years are retained in school at higher rates than those who do not getsimilar experiences [31]. More maturity, a greater independence of thought and action, and awell-developed sense of responsibility have all been noted in professional practice studentsrelative to their non-participating peers [32]. Dressler & Keeling [33] suggest that a deeperanalysis of the extent of student learning through professional practice includes: an increase indisciplined thinking; an

In the course, students iteratively reflect on andcommunicate their past experiences and development of competencies through writing stories;drafting values and guiding principles; connecting with mentors; and applying learning to early-career decision-making. At the end of the course, students were able to: 1. Describe their growth in and mastery of competencies in the context of their undergraduate experiences. 2. Define social capital and increase their social capital by identifying one peer and one professional to ask salient questions to, receive meaningful answers

Sites are also required to offer training in research ethics[1]. Many sites also provide training about how to select and apply to graduate school (e.g., [5]),for students who choose to pursue further education. However, even with all of these programs(some of which may be offered outside of normal work hours), the bulk of student time at REUsites is spent on research activities.2.2

Collaborative learning and peer tutoring in the university environmentcan positively influence students to maintain a constant motivation and affection towards their study (Concetta2018). Collaborative learning and cooperative learning are different, for they have distinct historicaldevelopments and different philosophical roots (Bruffee,1995).
