. Finally, it is shown that students see a value infinding an overlap between their personal interests and the material they cover in class. Byproviding students with a choice on lab projects it was found that a course can be made to bettercater to students interests than the average class they take in their first year(s) of college.Plans are currently being made to expand upon the results described in this paper. Specifically,the goal of this future work will be to examine the effect of choice on student learning andproject performance.References1 Edwards, R., & Recktenwald, G. (2010).

the students in this study would be relatively constant overtime as well. It would be useful to examine the GPAs of these students in light of the research todate to see if this trend is observed. In addition, one might expect that, in the future, if theseindicators change with time, it could be indicative of substantial changes in the K-12 curriculumand/or some other contributing factor(s) that the students experience prior to enrolment in first-year engineering. This longitudinal study may also provide a foundation for assessing the successor failure of initiatives that are being undertaken or those that may be proposed in the future toimprove the success and retention of first-year engineering students at our institution
