In the first year engineering program at KU Leuven, a technical writing program is implemented within the project based course ‘Problem Solving and Engineering Design’. The program consists of subsequent cycles of instructions, learning by doing and reflection on received feedback. In addition a peer review assignment, together with an interactive lecture using clicking devices, are incorporated within the assignments of the

This software package was well-regarded by the instructors using it, who saw it as both reducing their workload and liftingstudent achievement, and the decision was made to develop it further. This development wasinformed by an action-research program, conducted by the author over a four-year period.The research program had two aims. The first aim was to develop and implement OASIS soas to best support student learning. The second aim was to confirm that OASIS did enhancestudent learning and to investigate the extent to

Using an adapted a scale developed by Lee and Robbins tomeasure social connectedness to peers on campus, their analysis found that classroomcommunity may positively influence campus connectedness28. The theoretical framework for community in this study is based on the work by McMillanand Chavis33. They propose that a sense of community consists of four elements: membership,influence, integration, and shared emotional connection. They further define sense of communityas “a feeling that members have of belonging, a feeling that members matter to one another andto the group, and a shared faith that members’ needs will be met through their commitment to betogether” (p.9)33.

The TExT expandsupon the information transfer provided by current textbooks and integrates it with a comprehen-sive set of teaching tools and resources. The objective is to deliver an effective educational expe-rience to engineering students, while simultaneously providing almost everything a teacher needsin order to implement effective teaching without investing significantly more time than would beused in the traditional lecture method. Indeed, most engineering professors are not trained edu-cators; they are engineers.

This uncertainty and anxiety may overwhelm any sense of inherentinterest they developed in the first-year.We take solace, however, in the fact that both intention and satisfaction were positivelycorrelated to students’ perceived attachment to their discipline (SPA) if only weakly. Though itis only anecdotal, we have continued to struggle to help our students develop an identity as amaterials engineer. This is due primarily to the fact that the field is highly multi-disciplinary andthus has no clear definition in the same sense that aerospace or civil engineering does. Thus, wetake these correlations as a positive sign that our efforts
