A group of twenty-seven engineering and engineering technology studentswho were part of a scholarship program was asked to submit journal entries in which theyreflected on their fears and anxieties related to their participation in their degree program.Prominent themes which emerged from student reflection included time management and itseffects on academics and social activities, the likelihood of degree completion and success inengineering-specific coursework (e.g. senior capstone projects), and aspects of life followinggraduation such as handling accumulated

These capabilities enabledproject-oriented courses where students learned theory and applied it immediately to projects.We discovered that students could handle courses where several topics were learned in parallel,and where they created the “manuals” for their experiments. Project teams could interact throughthe computer. This was a far cry from the traditional model of undergraduates just beingobservers, or at best just operators following precise instructions.The capabilities demonstrated by 1993 were used to revamp the junior-level Low SpeedAerodynamics

The philosophy governing the program is tointroduce the students to key engineering concepts and applications in the first semester of theirfreshmen year; these concepts are then integrated throughout the courses in the core curriculumand extend into the respective concentrations leading up to the capstone design project. Thesubsequent courses build upon these concepts allowing the students to make insightfulconnections at each phase and follow the development of these concepts to a professional level.The program is established with the following mission statement and educational objectives [3

benefits of PR are broadly applicablewhenever students are producing non-routine work such as capstone projects, project-basedcourses, or constructivist activities.Cementing and Extending – PR provides twice the learning opportunities compared to InstructorReview (IR) because both the reviewer and the recipient are learning. The reviewer is arguablythe greatest beneficiary; they first cement factual knowledge and then extend their conceptualunderstanding as they consider the work of their classmates. To review a token, the reviewermust first understand what they have seen/heard, next compare it to their own knowledge, thenevaluate whether it is correct, and finally explain/justify their opinion. Reviewers’ cognitivedemands are consistent with
