is even lower than the fourth-year contacttime at the two US universities.In order to provide a consistent picture of the students’ formal academic interactions, thisanalysis is based on the weekly class schedule. Institutional differences in class scheduling,assessment structures, and contact time format make cumulative totals difficult to compare.For example, the differences in semester length (12-13 weeks in South Africa vs. 15 weeks inthe US) and whether assessments take place outside ordinarily scheduled contact time canlead to variations in total contact time between and within institutions that may not reflect thestudents’ perception of that contact time. The weekly basis is chosen both because itillustrates a student’s ongoing

countries.To further emphasize this point, consider the following three quotes from, respectively, WilliamWulf, president of National Academy of Engineering; Duane Abata, president of ASEE, and KenKohrs, former vice president of Ford Motor Company: “…engineering is now practiced in a global, holistic business context, and engineers mustdesign under constraints that reflect that context. In the future, understanding other cultures,speaking other languages, and communicating with people from marketing and finance will bejust as fundamental to the practice of engineering as physics and calculus.”2 “Outsourcing is affecting engineering and all the facets that encompass engineering, includingresearch, design, marketing and service…This is a major

SoTL builds on many past practices in higher education,including classroom and program assessment, the reflective practice movement, peer review ofteaching, traditional educational research, and faculty development efforts to enhance teachingand learning.In this

solving becomes a cognitive strategy when learners are aware of howand when it should be used. Furthermore, in order to get the ability to design strategies forsolving problems it is essential to be conscious about the cognition and reflection processesrequired for achieving a feasible solution; these processes are known to be part of metacognition.Metacognition refers to people’s abilities to predict their performances on various tasks and tomonitor their current levels of mastery and understanding1. This approach is typically found it inconstructivist theories of meaningful learning that respond to the need for a transition, instudents, from passive learners willing to learn adaptive and reproductive forms, to constructivelearners who are

Students participate in weekly 75minute seminars and 30 minute project management meetings with all the peripheral teams.Students write structured reflective blogs for each seminar talk and at the end of the semestermake a two-minute YouTube video clip (in two-person teams) focusing on how they appliedconcepts from the seminar series to their ventures.

The U.S. students were then required to turnin a reflection on their Brazilian counterparts and the interaction that took place. At thebeginning of June the Brazilian students were required to communicate to their U.S. partnersinformation regarding the physical system to be controlled, including information regardingsensors and actuators. Based on this information, the U.S. students then built from first principlesmathematical models of their assigned system and the associated control hardware. Thesemodels were described in a memo sent to their Brazilian counterpart in the middle of June. Atthis point

in students’ familiarity with both the host countries society and their waterresource engineering capacities. For both the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, students feltthat they were much more acclimated to the local society. This also led them to feel morecomfortable traveling alone internationally in general. Thus the class has been able to buildstudents’ confidence in being abroad. The perceived gains in knowledge of the water resourcesof each country reflect the impact of the thematic nature of the course. Similar results werereflected in the entrance and exit surveys of the course that travelled to Egypt. Page 22.1007.10Table 2: Key

These areas of development were discovered through analysis of student reflections,interviews, and discussions of students who had traveled with Engineers Without Borders toCameroon, Guatemala, Haiti, and Nigeria. The learning objectives for each area of developmentwere written in reference to the six learning domains outlined in Bloom’s Taxonomy.By publishing these objectives we wish to further encourage a participatory approach from boththe academic and non-academic communities at large. This compilation of objectives andpotential applications can guide others as they prepare students for international engineeringwork.IntroductionInternational

The reasoning was twofold:firstly, as mentioned above, to encourage incoming mobility, thereby ensuring that the ‘bilateralexchange’ demanded by the Socrates program (now the Life Long Learning Program) programtakes place. Secondly, we wanted to give students staying at home the chance to apply theirlanguage skills in a way which reflected situations they might find themselves in the workplacein future , e.g. working as part of a multinational, multicultural team, where they must be able tocoordinate their work ‘with others who view the world through differing cultural lenses’7.Introducing a

They also fill out a “competency matrix” upon completion of the course, to help students reflect on their learning. This matrix features specific outcomes, of which the course may target some, and provides the ME program with students’ perception on where and how these outcomes were achieved. All students are expected to submit this portfolio up on return from a study abroad program directly to the Director of Study Abroad Programs. 2. A

However, it can be argued that in general, institutions of higher education offeringengineering and technology programs have lowered their threshold from C (70% or above) to D(60% or above) to pass a class, along with grade inflationary pressures [15].It is important to notice that on average the perception of poor performance by internationalstudents is not reflected in course grades between the two groups, meaning that eventualinstructor’s bias is not resulting in lower grades when
