Paper ID #33109Building Research Skills through Being a Peer ReviewerDr. Lisa Benson, Clemson University Lisa Benson is a Professor of Engineering and Science Education at Clemson University, and the Editor of the Journal of Engineering Education. Her research focuses on the interactions between student mo- tivation and their learning experiences. Her projects focus on student perceptions, beliefs and attitudes towards becoming engineers and scientists, development of problem solving skills, self-regulated learn- ing, and epistemic beliefs. She earned a B.S. in Bioengineering from the University of Vermont, and M.S
theproposal. To illustrate, sometimes an idea stews for a good while in the form of an initial concepton which a team of colleagues continues to ponder and explore a direction for a particular topic andthe viability of the project. Conversations through collaborative interaction, among team members,are critical in bringing the most effective articulation of proposal pieces, and the multitude of pointsof views, from a collaborating team, enable a powerful array of avenues in building to the mostcompetitive proposal: in short, a group genius approach is far more productive than a solo centeredmodel. For example, the working group may have continual conversations, read, try things in thelab, ponder and pilot aspects of the work, etc., before even

to become more inclusive. NSF Revolutionizing EngineeringDepartments (RED) program awarded the Mechanical Engineering department of SeattleUniversity a grant in 2017. The goal of this five-year project is to build a culture that fostersstudents’ engineering identities. Many changes have been made to the curriculum and coursesthroughout the curriculum so students could experience real-world engineering with practicingengineers. Engineering design courses for senior design projects provide students not only theopportunity to work with industry engineers on real-world design problems, but also thepossibilities to learn the highest level of professionalism. In the past couple of years, notablechanges in Engineering Design courses include using

, realism, experimentalism, and existentialism. These philosophies were correlated tofive teaching styles: expert (who is interested in knowledge transfer), formal authority (whonever hesitate to give negative feedback), personal (who encourages students to follow theirway), facilitator (who present alternative and encourage students to take the initiative andresponsibility to construct knowledge), and delegator (who expects students to studyindependently in projects). Saritas argued that teachers mostly adapt a facilitator teaching styleand prefer experimentalist philosophy [12].Typically, we develop TPS with administrators and promotion committees in mind. However,Brinthaupt et al. debated that there is an exclusion of the students’ feedback in

He has won multiple awards for excellence in instruction; most recently the Saul K. Fenster Award for Innovation in Engineering Education. He also has worked on several research projects, programs, and initiatives to help students bridge the gap between high school and college as well as preparing students for the rigors of mathematics. His research interests include engineering education, integration of novel technologies into the engineering classroom, excellence in instruction, water, and wastewater treatment, civil engineering

In fact, modern expectancy-value theories argue that individuals' choice, persistenceand performance can be explained by their beliefs about how well they will do on the activityand the extent to which they value the activity [9, 10]. For example, a student chooses to engagewith different course materials because they believe it will increase their performance or overallunderstanding. Likewise, interest in a topic and empowerment to make choices in their learningengagement can determine whether or not a student performs well in a course. To betterunderstand the expected value of different course materials, the project leveraged a popular,validated survey methodology known as the MUSIC Inventory. The MUSIC Inventory measuresthe five

andcommunicating their results. Besides, students are asked to meet with professionals in industry who cantell them about the usability of the course content. For example, they have to ask what open-endedproblems they face in their company and its problem-solving process.Similarly, they have to ask professionals about their decision-making process and compare it with thosetaught in the class. After their meetings, they report what they found on a discussion board, andstudents must reply. Students also have to engage in problem-finding through an iterative process. Theyget feedback from their peers to build a better problem definition and project goal submitted to theinstructional team after several weeks. The course ends with a summative assessment in

It also looks at these influences through the lens ofpositive emotional engagement or how students feel as they engage in their studies with theintention of identifying strategies that can help international students thrive in their engineeringstudies in the U.S.MethodsQuantitative research methods were used to analyze ordinal, Likert-scale data from surveysdistributed to undergraduate engineering students.
