promotecollaborative and active learning [2,3,6].Other less obvious challenges in the traditional curriculum can also be addressed effectivelyusing IT. For example, the traditional industrial engineering curriculum encompasses what mayseem like loosely connected courses that address different elements of manufacturing andservice enterprises. A common computer-based environment can be used to integrate thesecourses. Such an environment can also be used to encourage the development of specificlearning skills. For example, when assigning homework and exams it may be difficult to ensurethat students plan how to learn a given task, monitor their comprehension of the task, andevaluate the progress that they are making towards completing the task.

The purpose was to examine the effects of word choice for reflection prompts on thetype and level of metacognition expressed in students’ written reflections. Data collection tookplace during a first-year engineering course at a large Midwest university in Springs 2017 and2018. An a priori coding scheme and qualitative coding analysis were used to identifymetacognitive strategies in students’ reflective responses. Results showed that reflection promptsfocused on using feedback to evaluate and improve performance encouraged the use of planning,action, and evaluating metacognitive strategies, and prompts that focus on using proficiency withthe learning objectives to reflect on what

Twenty suchprojects have been completed, involving about 100 students working in self-selected teams.Each team develops technical, marketing and business plans, develops and tests its prototypesand submits a proposal to NCIIA for a grant. As of 2005, four such grants have been awardedand one U.S. Patent application has been filed.Our Technical Entrepreneurship program is five years old. It has been supported by two grantsfrom NCIIA.
