EER, yet who are experts within their own engineeringdiscipline. Engineering faculty frequently have little experience conducting rigorous researchusing established social science theories and methods. RIEF mentors are experiencedengineering education researchers. Mentorship in the context of a RIEF grant is unique, as it isdifferent from graduate student training or peer mentorship between faculty in the samediscipline. Common conceptions of mentorship include a novice receiving guidance from anexpert, whereas RIEF PIs and co-PIs are both experts in their own domains. Mentoringrelationships between faculty are understudied, especially in the context of faculty with expertisein different disciplines that have unique training needs. Therefore

Exceptional, highly regarded and accredited engineeringprograms, while few in number, demonstrated the feasibility of highly flexible, customizable,and balanced programs. Though hypothesized that the low-choice, highly technical engineeringcurricular model may be a barrier to participation in engineering education, correlations betweencurricular choice/balance and educational outcomes had not been explored. In this pilot study,curricula and program outcome data were delineated for 21 engineering, math, natural science,and physical science degree programs (nine ABET-accredited, 12 non-accredited) at theUniversity of Colorado

presentation. Animportant strategy to enforce rehearsing involved pairing students to peer-evaluate theirpresentations prior to final delivery. This was in addition to a short animated video ‘Get Preparedto Present Well’ produced specifically for the course, along with a check list, to emphasize thekey techniques. A pre- and post-survey was conducted to benchmark presentation skills anddetermine how regimented rehearsing affected their delivery. When rehearsed, the studentsclearly saw an improvement in their performances and as a result developed a strongappreciation for the importance of practicing. However, the study also identified that when theassignment is demanding and time is limited, practice is first to be sacrificed.IntroductionABET

While engineers lack a stellar reputation in the social skill realm, there is a levelof difficulty to constructive feedback and conflict resolution regardless of profession, withexperience and practice being key in improvement. In order to meet our objective of developingstudent skills, modules will need to be developed to assist students with constructive feedback.Possibilities being explored include role playing, brainstorming solutions to difficult teamproblems, and using the CATME peer evaluation tools [29].

to calibrate and compare their own progression through their degreeprograms to the progress of their peers. As implied by curricular flowcharts (another importantartifact), the default progression for engineering students begins in the first semester with Calc1, proceeding onwards through the math sequence and ideally completing the required coursesby the fourth semester of their undergraduate careers. Consequently, students classified as notready for Calc 1 who start at Pre-Calc in their first semesters are already “behind” their peersfrom the start of their college experiences while students who place into Calc 2 or 3 their firstsemesters are “ahead.” Feeling behind rather than ahead can be potentially detrimental to studentattitudes and

In addition to completing theCommon Core, every student at HMC is required to take at least ten courses in HSA, with atleast four courses in an area of concentration.

The class alternates between students discussing in groups of 4-6 and writing thoughts, calculations, etc. down on posters. Instructor brings the class together and runs through simple cost analyses on the overhead projector in Excel.

Women’s experiences in engineering design teams has been the subject of a number ofstudies, with several studies noting that women’s experiences in teams could potentially“recreate sexist environments already found in the university environment for undergraduatewomen if they are not properly managed” [28, pp. 82].

However, this vaguenessmay confuse engineering programs about how to address each outcome effectively.1 To addressthese types of issues, McGourty, Besterfield-Sacre, and Shuman called for operationaldescriptions of each outcome; although, they admitted that determining the specificity would bea

Reflectionessays, reflective journals, portfolios, end-of-course evaluations and feedbacks, surveys,reflective discussions, and peer evaluations are amongst the more standard reflective activities.However, studies show that incorporating reflective activities into a classroom can be verydifficult and students are often not inclined to engage in reflective activities or to developreflective thoughts.[18-21] For example in a study conducted at a medical school in the UK wherereflective learning is now a requirement for licensing of doctors, out of 232 students, only 20took the introductory Reflective
