As we begin to look at student performance, we are utilizing McGill and Volet’sconceptual framework for analyzing student programs and diagnosing deficiencies [20]. Thisframework links three types of programming knowledge (syntactic, conceptual, and strategic)with the view of knowledge from cognitive psychology (declarative, procedural, andconditional). We believe using this framework to link our qualitative codebook withprogramming knowledge will allow us to further evaluate students’ thinking processes and thechanges in programming knowledge over time.

experience of teaching it for the first time during the 2017-2018 academic year, and plans for the future.IntroductionIn 1997, ABET rolled out the Engineering Criteria 2000 (EC2000), which introduced for the firsttime an understanding of social context as a requirement for engineering education. This is anacknowledgement that engineering practice does not occur in a vacuum, but must be responsiveto the various economic, political, and cultural forces around it. In the years since EC2000,many engineering programs have struggled to meet this criteria in a meaningful way [1]. Thereasons are primarily two-fold. First, the addition of so-called “soft skills” into the curriculum inno way reduces the amount of technical content that is also necessary to

Assessments need to continually redefine desired outcomes and goals ofsuch programs.Another shortcoming was that the program gave students and faculty a stipend, but it did notprovide any research related expenses. This is potentially limiting for some projects if faculty donot plan for student researchers far enough in advance.Changes that will be made for the upcoming summer program will include faculty sessions toprovide structure and methods for appropriate mentoring.

The improved confidence for open-ended problem solvingand self-efficacy are likely related to the successful creation of a collaborative learningenvironment [8]-[9]. This adaptive change in motivation may also be influenced by the use ofthree phases for a DC instead of the more traditional one-day activity.
