Unfortunately, these oftenbecame rushed in many of the sessions. While an open-ended questions generally invite thegreatest variety of answers, we learned that it also provides difficulties in extracting answersfrom 6th grade students. Some of the challenges included the reading and writing level ofstudents, the time allotted for students to write their reflections, and the understanding of thereflection question itself.

EngineerThroughout the Introduction to Engineering I course, students explore the field of engineeringand consider their reasons for pursuing an engineering major. The One-Minute Engineer is athree-part assignment where students first write a 300-400 word essay about why they arestudying engineer, conduct a peer-edit to reduce the word count to approximately 150 words, andfinally, present their One-Minute Engineer orally in front of their classmates. This assignmenthelps students articulate why they want to be an engineer while honing their technical writingand presentation skills. In their written drafts and presentations, students were required to reflecton at least one of their top-five Strengths.Results and DiscussionTeam formationIn general, the four

Tobe able to model, recreate and reproduce knowledge successfully, students need to be motivatedto learn (Hargis, 1999). Emily McIntosh (2017) explores how peer assisted study sessionsengage and motivate students, and leads to improved retention. In addition, the development ofproblem solving and critical thinking skills improved student resilience (McIntosh, 2017).

Preliminary analysis ofstudent feedback and faculty reflections indicates increased learner motivation, enhanced reviewof technical content and an upbeat atmosphere to the classroom. Faculty reflections also notedthat the use of games that allow learners to answer the questions individually helped facultyidentify those students who had successfully mastered the concepts, which allowed the instructorto structure peer-to-peer active learning opportunities during class more effectively. Future workincludes analyzing test scores, and other measures of long-term retention of concepts. Overall,use of these gamification tools was found to be a significant addition to

Bowers argued that most students morallydisapproved of cheating and believed their peers to disapprove as well, but they continued tocheat due to academic survival outweighing moral decision-making [6]. Thirty years afterBowers’ article, in 1994, McCabe and Bowers compared the results of McCabe’s research in1991 to the results of Bowers’ study in 1964 [7].

The survey is now being conducted on Construction management EngineeringTechnology (CmET) students.There were some minor differences in the two studies. Although the CmET students have beenpreviously exposed to projects with video interaction, these projects were optional. Therefore,not all CmET students had previously completed a video presentation. Both the instructor andthe students’ required Technical Writing course have offered optional video presentationprojects. Since the students have been exposed to the concept and this was the first timeintroducing video presentations in the course, very little course time was spent explicitly onlearning required techniques.

Social presence isdefined as interpersonal salience [5]. Online computer-based environments generally have alowered social presence than face-to-face conversations, as the interlocutors’ faces, facialexpressions, and voices may be masked. Students have been shown to be willing to provide moresubstantive critiques of peer writing in an environment with low social presence compared toface-to-face settings, both in high school students and at the university level [6], [7].Much work has been done investigating gender breakdown of groups in team learning, findingthat women participate

We further used the Comprehensive Assessment of Team Member Effectiveness(CATME) for peer and self-evaluation on five dimensions.

Teaching assistants (TAs) arecommonly used in first-year engineering classes to provide instruction, grade student work,provide peer mentoring, and assist in course content delivery and development. In this large first-year program specifically, TAs are relied on heavily due to the high number of students.

, insufficient preparation and barriers in recruiting into engineering programs at the K-12 level, low self-efficacy, lack of peer support, inadequate academic advising or faculty support, harmful stereotypes of particular groups that influence interactions in classrooms or in peer groups, and a chilly or unappealing climate [1- 9]. These factors may exist at the level of the institution, the engineering college, and/or the engineering-specific department. Given the current accreditation structure for engineering programs, students’ experiences may be more influenced by institution and college-level factors in their first two years, when they are taking basic science and breadth courses, and shift to department-level factors in their upperclassmen years
