Embedding reflection in engineeringcoursework is challenging. This study had two purposes, to examine (1) changes in the MRSsthat students used in reflections across two semesters and (2) differences in students’ MRSswhen instructors were new to versus their second year of reflection implementation. At a largemidwestern university, this study took place in two sequential courses with two cohorts ofstudents who participated in written reflections alongside engineering coursework. Cohort 1 wastaught by two instructors new to implementation, while Cohort 2 was taught by the sameinstructors in their second year of

IntroductionLifelong learning is one of the desired employability skills in today's job market. Forinstance, consider the technologies with which engineering work. The continuous evolutionof technology that results in the replacement of existing devices with new devices poses newchallenges and opportunities for engineers [1].

Instructional Benefits of a Web-Based Students’ Concurrent Course Registration ToolAbstractData-driven approaches have the potential to reshape course design and lesson planning inmodern education by providing instructors with actionable insights into student learningenvironments. A web-based tool has recently been developed to offer instructors real-time accessto students’ concurrent course registration data. Initially developed to help instructors highlightinterdisciplinary connections between courses, the tool has shown broader potential for enhancingcourse design and instructional strategies. By revealing key information, such as how manystudents are concurrently enrolled in prerequisites or are taking high-demand

Engineering educators often are Ph.D. holders who are expertsin various engineering subdisciplines. However, engineering graduate students have fewerteaching-related professional development opportunities than students in other STEM subjects[6]. In other words, although experts in their respective fields, new engineering educators areoften not education nor engineering education experts.

Were conditions different than in thecited literature study?) Some errors can be quite subtle, while others are very well-known. Thestudents can also be asked for suggestions on how to improve the experiment or minimize theidentified errors.Another way to combat “bad” data is to have backup or example data sets available for studentsto use for reports. These data can be acquired while TAs are preparing for the lab, or they can begenerated from previous semesters if available. While it does not have to be perfect, the exampledata set will hopefully be more representative of the planned experiment’s expected

To demonstrate this core value, I inform studentsthat I set a timer for myself every class period that will go off when the class is scheduled to end.And no matter how critical the thought is that I am sharing at that moment, I stop class so theycan move on to their next activity. This practice serves two purposes. First, it significantlyreduced the shuffling students would do in the last 10 minutes of class, typically intended toremind the instructor that the period was ending. Second, it increases the likelihood that studentswill have time to come up and ask questions right after class.Office hoursI do not plan office hours to check off a box. This is

If you give a new student a project that you don't know how to complete, then you don't know if it is the student or the problem.He also advises asking this question: “‘and how will you evaluate that?’ There are lots of greatresearch ideas, but if we can't evaluate it, we can't get a paper published on it.”Be sure to talk with your student and set goals for each year they are in the graduate program.An Individual Development Plan (IDP) can be used [Marcus 2016].

Allowing students to attend virtually may allow them to keep their plans, but stillattend class. Another way to incentivize students is to give quizzes or exams on Friday so thatbeing absent directly impacts their grade. Other ways to motivate students are to increase socialpressure through the use of group work or to do homework problems together. Working ingroups or as a class has also shown to have a positive impact on overall grades [7].Unfortunately, nearly all incentive techniques have drawbacks that make them difficult to userepeatedly.

Self-directed learning became a model that distinguished adult learners by theirability to plan, carry out, and evaluate their learning at their own time, despite juggling job andschool responsibilities [23]. However, with the view that learners become increasingly self-directed as they mature, there was a growing argument that self-direction should be developed inyounger learners too [23].In recent times, the distinction between children and adults has become less distinct; somescholars argue that andragogy falls within pedagogy [25] and others have explored andragogicalmethods with participants aged 18 and above [26-27].
