of the module was to help undergraduate students learncritical skills identified by stakeholders, such as sterile technique, cell culture, biomaterialdesign, experimental planning, and quantitative analyses. Further, the module sought to aidstudents in the development of important professional skills, such as problem-solving, teamwork,and communication. During module design and implementation, a variety of SCL teachingstrategies (Table 1) were applied to achieve the learning outcomes within the short timeframe ofthe module (Figure 1). A detailed description of implementation follows below.Table 1. Summary of SCL techniques and their methods of implementation. SCL Technique Interventions Situated

Furtheranalysis into these facts, made by Llorente and Marín [7], have led them to state that the rate ofstudent learnings, regardless of their educational level, is mediated by the use Information andCommunication Technologies, which in recent times have undergone a continuous process ofevolution and growth.Present reality is that most students, particularly those subject to this study, are digital natives.According to Delgado [8], a digital native can be understood as

These teams do atrial run to familiarise the students with the gameplay (1). In the next phase, a business plan (2)has to be written by each company in the game, before the teams start to play the game.

Most notable in Brown and Wilson’s work was theemphasis on pushing students into active roles that require students to engage in and articulateproblem definition, ideation and planning, and prediction. These core activities elevate thestudent activity in programming from lower-level cognitive skills (i.e., remembering,understanding) to higher-level cognitive skills (i.e., applying, analyzing, and evaluating).

In our survey,students responded to the derivative instrument for three different contexts: (1) Courses they had takenin previous semesters, (2) Their capstone course, and (3) Their TechCom course.

Most engineeringeducators have noticed how “non-traditional” students (older) tend to do betteron the average than more traditional students (younger). This paper deals with technics to rationally reach emotional thinkingstudents. One popular television commercial says, “People won’t rememberwhat you said, but they will always remember how you made them feel.” Asengineering educators, we need to set up our lesson plans to emotionally connectwith students (engage their feelings).Introduction Human brain development is not a uniform process.

Less than 15% of all high school graduates in the U.S. have the math andscience background necessary to enter an undergraduate engineering curriculum.1 Only 2% ofhigh school graduates pursue engineering degrees in college, and only 0.5% of women andminority high school graduates pursue engineering degrees in college.2,3 Proceedings of the 2003 ASEE Gulf-Southwest Annual Conference

Our original idea was that gaps in our evaluation plan for REEFE mayhave limited the possibility of improving the program over time, thus continuing a trend of fewerapplications when severe program design issues were present and known. Such evaluation issueswere not identified in our data sources. Similarly, we began our analysis including the categoryPolicies because we thought that graduate students might identify enrollment policies (e.g.,continuous enrollment during degree) as a barrier to participating in an immersive internshipprogram.
