user of English3.1 Articulate effective linguistic choices to each otherThe C-BLI approach posits that for learners to internalize (i.e., they can use the newknowledge on their own) a scientific concept, it is important to have them verbalize in class.Through an instructor’s mediation, learners should explain communicatively theirunderstanding of the concept(s) they are learning to each other. In this spirit, the last tutoringsession was devoted to individual presentations of their understanding and reflection of thefour linguistic concepts and corpus techniques. It was found that every participant wascapable of applying the linguistic concepts to their own writing (see Table 4). While Vihaanand Shyla chose to apply all four linguistic

mid-nineties. In contrast, AE enrollment grew till 1988 and then sharply declined. The reason forthis disparity is that while engineering went through downsizing and mergers, 1980’s was adynamic time for aerospace engineering [8]. Truly the eighties were an exciting time for AEindustry where the U.S. increased its funding in the sector to almost excessive [9]. Followingthis period of excessive spending, the sector faced huge downsizing due to the slash infunding and recession. To put it in perspective, the AE sector slashed half a million jobs from1989 to 1995 [9]. Undergraduate enrollment in AE followed similar trends to that of itsindustry. Fletcher (1998) warned that the sharp decline in enrollment in AE will have seriousconsequences on

After the RET experiences, the teachers reported moreconfidence in their interactions with neural engineering research scientists (100%) and weremore aware of neural engineering careers (92.9%). Qualitative data were collected to further understand the outcomes of the program. Thefollowing teacher quotations are the most significant for student learning and curriculum design. Thisadditional information adds to the validity of the quantitative data. What are the strengths of the curriculum unit(s)? ● “The curriculum is hands-on, related to real-world
measurement of engineering identity was accomplished using an adapted version of Godwinet al.’s (2016) measure of identity. Godwin et al. concludes that an engineering student’sengineering identity is a function of four attitudes relating to interest, performance, recognitionand agency. Interest is the student’s innate attraction to the subject material surroundingengineering, such as math, science and physics. Performance is an academic self-efficacyconstruct measuring how much a student believes in their ability to positively perform inacademically in engineering coursework. Recognition is how a student believes they arerecognized as an engineer, particularly by meaningful others such as parents or professors.Finally, agency or as Godwin et al

practical projects.Since the publication of those documents, very little has happened in terms of concrete solutions,mainly due to the large number of bureaucratic hurdles and the amount of effort required toimplement the proposed changes. Meanwhile the economy is still increasingly demanding morequalified engineers both for industry and nowadays for so called technological entrepreneurship,which happens when a technological idea is combined with a business opportunity, a way tomarket it and escalate its growth. To support this process, resources in the form of capital andtalent are paramount. Among the talents necessary is engineering, which has been one of its mostimportant driver3.Implementing a new curriculum to develop the student´s abilities
hisor her research abilities. For example, while a student in Category 1’s reliance on authority andconcrete rules might be less sophisticated than a more self-directed, self-assured approachevident in Category 3, learning from experts in the field and developing a familiarity withfoundational knowledge and skills in engineering is a key step in being able to progress as anindependent engineering researcher. Though students’ responses at a particular point in time maybe best represented by one category, it is possible and likely that students’ level of researchprocess sophistication will change over time as a result of their experiences.Though our process for classifying graduate engineering students’ research processsophistication was an
