The assignment asked students toreflect on their definition of CE/EvE/AE, if they were interested in continuing to major inCE/EvE/AE, and why. Students were prompted to discuss personal experiences prior to college,content in the first year CE/EvE/AE course, and other college courses that impacted thisdecision. Students were also instructed to “Cite specific aspects of CE/EvE/AE and being aC/Ev/A engineer that appeal to you and do not appeal to you.”The essays were generally about two pages long. The assignment was worth ten percent of theoverall course grade. It was graded on whether or not the students fully answered each question,not based on their specific responses (such as
