Reflection on the Road: How Recent First Year Students Exhibit Reflection During a Short-Term Study Abroad ExperienceAbstractStudy abroad experiences augment college and university curricula and expose students to aninternational setting with lectures, tours, and cultural activities. These studies raise awareness ofprofessional, social and cultural differences among countries. Students recognize globalchallenges to the engineering profession when they discover that another country faces similartechnical, social, cultural and resource-limiting challenges. They also learn that solutions tosimilar challenges in the U.S. may, or may not, be suitable in another country. Reflection is oneway to for students to derive

engineering study means more than justattending classes or taking exams. The experiences also include meaningful community andsociety involvement and contributions.Impacts on college studentsService learning is a very good way to achieve several objectives for the education ofengineering students, including: 1) Ensure what the students learned are practical and realistic, applicable to the real world. 2) Guarantee that the students have in mind of serving the community when they are in school and keep that after they graduate. 3) Help the students to start to build good and sustainable community relationships while still in school. 4) Facilitate the students’ learning actively

represents the square root of –1. However, this reasoning appears logically inconsistent.There is nothing imaginary about the symbol i or its use.This paper treats the following interesting topics in the theory of functions of a complex variable:1) sensible introductions to Euler’s i that conform to the way engineers and technicians usethe symbol in analyzing alternating current circuits and mechanically vibrating systems;2) the derivation of the algebraic and topological features of the complex plane and acomparison of these features to the properties of “real” numbers;3) the description of the isomorphism between phasors and combinations of same-frequencysinusoidal oscillations that underlies the theory of alternating current analysis
conceptual understanding through those means alone may be limited. For example, evenwhen students complete pre-laboratory assignments to prepare for cookbook lab sessions, theselab exercises do not necessarily improve student learning in corresponding lecture-based courses[6], [7].Numerous authors discuss the potential merits of inquiry-based learning (hereafter IBL) as analternative to cookbook approaches to instructional laboratories, e.g. [2], [3], [8]. In a recentliterature review, Pedaste and colleagues [8] identified and summarized the core features of IBL.In general, student experiences mirror one or more steps of the scientific method and/ordisciplinary habits of mind of scientists or engineers: (1) articulating testable questions
