Web-capture software was used to trackeach student’s progress and monitor their decision making.A multidimensional problem-solving framework was employed when observing participantsattempts. The problem-solving framework looked at four key stages: Identifying, Planning,Implementing, and Evaluating. This was supported by the sub-cycle of conjecture, test, andevaluate (accept/reject) method presented by Carlson and Bloom [3] used to analyse mathematicalproblem-solving. Simultaneously audio responses were also captured, which gave researchers avaluable and rich data set to interpret individual heuristics, conceptual knowledge and decisionmaking.The findings presented in this paper illustrate a clear

The design experience and course experience includes defining the problems to beaddressed with formal Design Requirements and identifying how the problems will be solvedwith a formal Project Plan. As the design and the project evolve, the course experience includes aDesign Review and an Engineering Report. For those students that have not had the benefit ofprofessional work experience or internships, these course deliverables provide an initiation andfoundation for their professional engineering careers.Objective assessment of the course deliverables is difficult for Capstone Design projects andcourses.

It refers to active learning that isguided by motivation to learn, metacognition (awareness of one’s knowledge and beliefs), andstrategic action (planning, monitoring, and evaluating personal progress, and taking properaction). A wealth of research has supported that optimal academic performance is strongly tied tothe extent to which the learner uses SRL1. Equipping students with SRL abilities not onlycontributes to success in formal education, but also prepares them for lifelong learning2. Despitethe extensive research in the literature, SRL is still not well known and utilized by theengineering education community for facilitating student learning in

The purpose of this project is to ease this transitionthrough the development of a formal orientation for an Engineering Education department; theADDIE model for training design was used. The first step was a thorough analysis of thedepartment, student requirements, tasks, personnel, and knowledge, skills & attitudes (KSA)required by a doctorate student in engineering education. Then, we developed learning objectivesand a plan of instruction that would optimize the learning, retention, and transfer of theinformation introduced during the orientation.

Furthermore, even those students that complete their engineering degrees do notalways remain in engineering fields.
