It is hoped that the course will increase student’sinterest in engineering and thereby improve their likelihood of academic and career success [8].3. ImplementationThe lead author is a full professor, and has taught the introduction to engineering course in thefall semester from 2003 to 2005. The SL projects were implemented in 2004 and 2005, withchanges made pursuant to student feedback and college initiatives. For instructional and researchpurposes, a more structured and conventional “design-build-test” project was also performed.Each of the project assignments will be briefly discussed prior to

strategies, researchers can distinguish various design engagements and also designer'spriority during the problem definition phase [8]. Table 1 presents the definition of each designphase and the correspondent design activities, where all refer to the Dym and Little’s framework[15]. Most of the time, there is more than one person involved in a design project, and eachwill assume or be assigned to at least one role [25]. Working as a team is not an easy task; italways adds complexity to the design process. The configuration of the team members’ abilitiesand work ethics will affect the design delivery time and quality [26]. Consequently, managingteam members is an integral part of most design projects.

Kohn sparked a conversation on these forms of competition as mutually interlinked andfar from being inevitable, they are in fact undesirable forms of structure and interaction for manyaspects of productivity, learning, affect, interpersonal community, and even ethical behavior.Kohn (and McDermott, e.g. “kill thy neighbor” game (Varenne & McDermott, 1999) ) sparked aconversation in 1990s K-12 education where many considered whether other non-competitivestructures and interactions were possible and desirable.

involves the consciousconsideration of the moral as well as ethical implications and consequences of classroompractices on students [2, p. 294]. On the other hand, self-reflection goes beyond critical inquiryby adding to conscious consideration the dimension of deep examination of personal values andbeliefs, embodied in the assumptions professors make and the expectations they have forstudents [2, p. 294]. This suggests that professors in general, and in particular mathematicsprofessors, must engage in some aspects of critical reflection that are needed for playing theeffective reflective practitioner role [1, p. 27] that is required for guiding students in theirlearning processes. 2.2 Reflective practice and professional developmentReflective
