different levels of emphasis on experiential learning. Those schoolswith less experiential learning courses tended to feature more courses where students learnedconcepts and demonstrated competence through traditional exercises like problem sets andexams. Engineering educators have steadily incorporated problem-based learning exercises,projects and capstone experiences into undergraduate engineering education. Problem-basedLearning (PBL) has been one technique introduced in order to bring ‘real life’ problems into theclassroom. Those educational exercises, particularly PBL, emphasize information-seeking as askill that will be developed through participation in the exercise. What we may see in these datais the payoff of those activities, but as one

that wouldplace fewer burdens on educators, while helping engineering students take the time to understandthe lessons that are afforded by engineering courses through reflective activities.To address these issues, a few researchers in engineering education have successfully designedor developed new methods and tools to support student reflection. For example, Chen et al.combined the use of weblogs and wikis with the creation of portfolios (Folio Thinking) tosupport learning and reflection in an introductory freshman seminar on design engineering atStanford University. Chen et al. indicate that a challenge in project-based design courses is thatstudents “see what they have produced but they do not see what they have learned.” They reportthat

. Inthe original physics-based curricula, labs involving mechanical application were practically non-existent. To provide for new mechanical lab activities, basic laboratory stations were procured,an engineering measurements lab and course were created, and innovative, low-cost practicalexperiences were developed. These activities quickly became too numerous for a single course,and will need to be distributed into the engineering science courses. The electrical engineeringcomponent has been influenced by technology advances and changes in focus. Improvements tolaboratory equipment and software have simultaneously simplified many lab measurementswhile allowing for more complex projects. The focus has shifted from fundamental physicsmeasurements
