highlighting work for potential employers or graduate schools. Students will be introduced toE-portfolios at a CAM meeting. Mentored laboratory time will give them an opportunity to getstarted, potentially using the essays on their professional goals from their CAM scholarshipapplication. Faculty mentors will follow up and give encouragement. Scholars will create energyand motivation for the project as they work together and share their work. This will be a unique,value-added component of the CAM program within Engineering.CAM Participant Meetings. CAM meetings will be used to create a bond between participantsand allow for involvement in activities of common interest. Meetings will be held at leastmonthly during the academic year and will include: 1

introductorymechanical engineering design course that involved both lecture (2 credits) and laboratory (1credit) sessions. Learning objectives for the mini-mill experience were to: (1) learn the safetyand controls of a manual milling machine and basic milling operations that included fixed,material scaffolds designed by the course instructor; (3) practice reading and manufacturing fromstandard engineering drawings; and (2) independently apply knowledge of milling machinecontrols and operations to create a basic part with adaptive, pedagogical scaffolding fromteaching assistants and machinists. All deliverables for this exercise were individually completedby students and required a mixture of hands-on activity, written reflection, and online trainingand survey

laboratory – they could take measurementsanywhere on campus. Students were also told that while they could assist each other in theirexperiments, each student had to design their own experiment and had to write a reportdocumenting that experiment.In the Heat Transfer course, the students were told they could use any of the lab equipment thatthey had used in earlier labs provided they used the equipment to investigate something that hadnot been examined in the previous labs. For example, they could use the department’s heatexchanger testing apparatus to investigate the performance of plate and fin exchanger since theprevious lab had only compared a shell and tube exchanger in counterflow and parallel flowconfigurations. As the Heat Transfer course is

what they learned and how they might apply it infuture endeavors. The second journal, which focuses on the students' international and culturalexperiences, can be equally valuable. This journal can help students to reflect on the ways inwhich their experiences in Costa Rica have broadened their perspectives and deepened theirunderstanding of other cultures. For example, they might write about new foods they tried,people they met, or traditions they observed. By reflecting on their experiences, students cangain a better understanding of themselves and the world around them.2. Materials and Methods Based on previous groups’ design and laboratory testing, the decision to utilize a fin tubecondenser coil, which acts as a heat exchanger, and
