Few of those studies providein-depth information on the mental interaction between students’ personal reflections about theirknowledge states and abilities and the actual action that may take place during the problemsolving activities. Furthermore, many of the studies involve working on hypothetical problemsthat do not reflect the authentic learning contexts that students may encounter in their classroomactivities. Hypothetical problems are generally simple, and clear instructions lead to

This paper provides a framework foraligning capstone and service learning outcomes.BackgroundService-learning occurs when “Students engage in community service activities with intentionalacademic and learning goals and opportunities for reflection that connect to their academicdiscipline” (Cress et al, 2005)1. Reflection is an integral part of learning and helps to developcritical thinking skills (Jacoby, 1996; Tsang, 2000; Tsang, 2002)2,3,4.

Design teams’ actions were further contextualized in terms their designtimeline and the sites they explored.Results from design team analytics have implications not only for teams’ design process, butmay be re-deployed as reflection tools for students’ or progress indicators for teachers or designmentors.In the next section the paper reviews research in learning analytics and visualization for dataanalysis.

In keeping with the National Research Council’s13synthesis of theresearch on K-12 engineering education research, we chose to focus on STEM-design Page 25.884.4challenges. This decision reflects our commitment both to apply relevant math andscience concepts and to enable students to engage in core engineering practices.By organizing units around STEM-design challenges, we are indicating that allchallenges will require students to design a product and purposefully apply relevant mathand science concepts. The outcome of this design work can vary according to theengineering domain being emphasized in each unit. For

From the analysis, the findings suggest that the level of understanding ofthe task was clearly reflected in students‟ plans with particular emphasis on getting a goodoverview of the design task at the early stage of the project. Students were found to be lacking inthe areas of planning the methods used and anticipating the time required to solve the design taskat the early stage of the project. Overall, students excelled in monitoring and regulating thedesign process and task management, although lower scores were found on several activities,such as seeking alternative approaches to investigating the problem, design solution, timeplanning, and the effective use of resources and materials

In order to limit the action and reflection possibilities, the learner interacts within a somewhat restricted, artificial environment, which is reduced in complexity and easy to control by the teacher. To provide feedback, the learning environment is designed to include relevant devices where students can deposit their interim products and teachers can inspect them. The emphasis in this model lies on the learning process of the student. Teachers try to help the

I am an inventor withover 30 US Utility patents, and have been teaching the use of patent database searching, as anintegral component of design research for 8 years. Research is an early stage design heuristic andan essential part of the functional-technical process of inquiry for creative projects, especiallythose seeking inventive solutions.

the team failed.Each individual student also writes a detailed personal reflection on how their actionscontributed to the team’s failure. This technique has been extremely effective in minimizingresentment among students and allowing students to experience failure in a “safe” environment.An alternative scenario for failure is that one or two individuals on the team fail to complete theirportions of the project, putting the successful efforts of the remainder of the team at risk. Thekey to resolving this issue is to identify potential failure points as early as possible. The structureoutlined above allows for evaluation of individual performance since the research andprototyping phases of the project are performed by individuals and graded

This development includeshelping students progress in their epistemological assumptions, described by King and Kitcheneras being three primary phases:13 ● Pre-reflective thinking: do not acknowledge or perceive that knowledge is uncertain. Do not understand that some real problems have no absolutely correct answer. ● Quasi-reflective thinking: recognize that some problems are ill structured and that some issues are problematic. Do not understand how evidence leads to conclusions - have difficulty drawing reasoned conclusions ● Reflective thinking - knowledge must be actively constructed and understood in relation to

of Design in Multidisciplinary Project TeamsDesign is a central and distinguishing activity of engineering and one of the core criteria forevaluating and accrediting engineering programs. Design has been characterized by manydifferent “design process” models1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and definitions which reflect different designapproaches and philosophies. Crismond and Adams (2012)6 draw from many sources in theirdefinition of design as “goal-directed problem-solving activity”7 that initiates change in human-made things, 8 and involves optimizing parameters9 and the balancing of trade-offs10 to meettargeted users’ needs.”11 From the situativity perspective.12 design is defined as “a social processin which individual object worlds interact, and design
