The hypothesiswas that asking students more questions would cause the students to reflect on the task at hand,which would in turn increase learning. This study was motivated by work on experientiallearning, particularly Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle, which suggests that

Twenty-five undergraduate engineeringstudents enrolled at the three collaborating universities were interviewed. Interview data wereholistically reviewed with an a priori coding schema based on the research objectives and thenre-coded according to the final coding schema by multiple research team members for inter-raterreliability purposes, and arbitrated where necessary.Differences in students’ reflections emerged based on the depth of their engagement with theculture and community in the host country in which they had participated in an internationalexperience.

As such, the purpose of this paper is to present evidence on the effect offormative assessment design on student performance, and whether this effect varies by studentlearning style. The results from this study can be used by engineering educators to eitherdiversify or personalize their assessment style.This work is grounded in the Felder-Soloman learning style model, a model that was developedwithin engineering education and has been validated and widely used within the field. Thismodel categorizes learning styles along four distinct dimensions: perception (sensing versusintuitive), input (visual versus verbal), processing (active versus reflective), and understanding(sequential

For example, an interview question may be wordedin such a way that it reflects the experiences and worldview of somebody who speaksAppalachian English versus African American English. To offset this possibility, the researchteam should consult with people who are familiar with the language and culture of the researchparticipants and ask them to evaluate data generation protocols as well as early collected data. Insummary, researchers can enact several validation procedures to increase the likelihood that theirdata generation methods are culturally responsive and result in a fit between a social reality andthe research report, rather than a deficit view.

A series of three workshops were conducted in 2018 byvisiting educators engaged in engineering education at both two and four-year HSIs. Before,during, and after the workshop series, attendees were asked to reflect on three guidingeducational philosophies: intrinsic motivation, students as empowered agents, and designthinking. Thirty-six engineering educators from thirteen HSIs from across the Southern UnitedStates participated in one of two, two-day workshops where attendees prototyped examples ofhow they would implement these philosophies at their home institution. Using these prototypes,participants identified the assets they already had and resources

Critical theory recognizes the complexity of socialprocesses and its main task is “to reflect upon the structures from which social realities and thetheories that seek to explain it are constructed” (p. 139).22 Although critical theory originated inthe Frankfurt School with a focus on a criticism of modern social structures,22 critical theoryprevails in other fields such as sociology and

The essence of the transformation faculty went through was the“reflection” they did [10], as they interacted with their colleagues at the conferences or duringthe peer-review phases of their manuscripts. The authors noted that the participating faculty’s iterative design efforts were the mostcritical [11]. In the second round implementing their instructional designs, the faculty were morelikely to fully engage in metacognitive and self-reflective thinking regarding their approaches toteaching and understanding of student learning.

, soteaching staff are dealing with larger workload [6], [8]. Consequently, they spend less timereflecting about curriculum and teaching practices [9], [10], and they resist to fulfillingadditional assessment requirements at a program level [4]. Besides lacking opportunities to reflect, most faculty lack opportunities to collectand analyze meaningful learning data due to the complexity of assessing student learningoutcomes on a program level [11]. To deal with this challenging but essential task,teaching staff rely on both quantitative (e.g., quiz results, test scores, mid-term students’satisfaction and end-of term evaluations) and qualitative data (e.g., open-ended responsesto end of term comments from students and colleagues) to identify

Unlikesimple descriptions of real people, personas are fictional, “hypothetical archetypes” [1]constructed from purposeful research about product users. Personas help to communicate thegoals, values, needs, and actions of targeted users and to develop empathy and interest for usersduring early stage design. Scenarios are narrative descriptions (i.e., “stories”) of “typical andsignificant” user activities that help designers define specific product features that reflect a userfocus [2]. Today, use of both personas and scenarios are widely recognized; designers mayimplement personas and/or scenarios in the context of product usage models that enable
