curiosity in exploring a topic supports learning that knowledge [1], building upon whatis taught in their academic program. Curiosity supports lifelong learning, one of the mostdesirable outcomes of higher education, by its role as an intrinsic reward [2]. Curiosity has alsobeen linked with workplace learning and job performance [3]. Given the short-term and long-term benefits curiosity can have on self-directed learning and job performance, it is important tobe able to identify whether students are exhibiting curiosity in the assignments that are submittedfor formative feedback.In recent years’ text mining has seen increasing focus on the investigation of sentiment [4],behavior analytics [5], linguistic understanding [6] improving product

In order to guidethis discovery process in engineering education, academics have relied on product dissection orthe systematic disassembly and analysis of a product and all of its parts [3-6]. This method ofmechanical dissection was first introduced by Sherri Sheppard in the early 1990’s when sheidentified a formal educational process for taking apart a product to understand how it works,which provided the basis for the implementation of a course utilizing product dissection

Drawing from Gollwitzer’s [1] notion of intentions,having students articulate their design intentions entails developing their self-regulatory skillsthat promote the initiation of goal-directed behaviors and ultimately taking purposeful action.Consequently, intentional and goal-directed processes are constituents of self-regulated learning[2].

On this account, goals are central forstudents to develop regulatory skills and achieve future success because they contextualizestrategies, and they
