higher education. For a number of years within engineering education, engineeringaccreditation boards in the US, Canada, and internationally, have recognized lifelong learning asone of the key competencies of engineering graduates. Characteristics of the lifelong learnerinclude the ability to “set goals, apply appropriate knowledge and skills, engage in self-directionand self-evaluation, locate required information, and adapt their learning strategies to differentconditions” (p. 292-293)1, 2. Inherent in these skills of lifelong learning is the ability for one to bea self-regulated learner with the ability to plan, monitor, control, and adjust his or her behaviourto achieve a desired outcome. In a learning context, self-regulation is highly

We revised lessons selected for inclusion in E4C to be age-appropriate and share a similar format across E4C lessons and units. We also designed a fewlessons to address learning objectives for which we could not find engineering lessons availableon the web.

The project challenges students to evaluatethemselves against a benchmark student—referred to as a "world-class" engineering student—based on the following objectives: 1. Setting goal(s), e.g. which major to pursue, graduating with an engineering degree, etc. 2. Developing a strong commitment to the goal of graduating in engineering, setting-up a plan to graduation 3.

We hypothesized that these four principles comprised collaborativeemergence during teamwork in engineering classrooms. Multiplicity was defined as recognitionof strengths and weaknesses of group members. Interconnectivity was defined as interactionamong group members. Adaptivity was defined as consideration of competing ideas within thestudent groups during problem solving. Spontaneous

However,allowing students to place parts of their design in the target zones ended up making the challengetoo easy and almost all teams created similar solutions.All but one team created the same design. This design incorporated some kind of tubing that ranfrom the start point on the third floor over the railing and ended in a box on bag placed in themost favorable zone, zone 1, on the second floor. They inclined the tube so that the ball wouldnaturally roll down from the start point to the end point in zone 1.

Although a number of models have been developed in this topic by many academics,developing “critical thinking skills” can be a long and arduous process. In particular, thedevelopment of higher education program level critical thinking skills require detailed courselevel planning, structured assignments, critical analysis of case studies, student centric learning,and guided design using tools such as simulation and gaming, communication exercises, andlaboratory experiments.
