refers to. For this reason, Sapir [26] described metonymy as “the logical inverse of metaphor… [with] two terms that occupy a common domain but do not share common features.”• Synecdoche is a specific type of metonymy, in which one part of an entity represents the entire entity [23]. For example, in the sentence “We need some more hands on the project,” hands refer to people.• Analogy is a broad category encompassing any figure of speech involving a comparison of domains [32], and therefore, metaphor is “a species” of analogy [3]. Readers of this paper who completed the SATs (Scholastic Assessment Test) in the U.S. prior to 2005 are likely familiar with the extended analogy form of one comparison juxtaposed with another

Engineering students need meaningful strategies for approaching multiple types ofproblems in order to develop the knowledge and reasoning necessary for success in

that the wiring would be problematic and potentially delay lab workthe following weeks. However the concerns proved unfounded and the students were able tocomplete the wiring successfully in teams of four within the 2 hour lab time. To help the process,the instructor station was wired ahead of the lab and left as an example for the students.After the first week, the wiring was left in place and modified as needed in following labs. Inthose weeks the students were able to add sensors and actuators to satisfy weekly lab exercises.At the conclusion of the semester students were given more elaborate projects where they neededto connect their station to control a piece of equipment like a conveyor and can crusher.At the time of final submission the

One operation, calledthe dot product, is written as 𝐀⃗ ⃘⃗𝐁 and yields a scalar (that is, a number and not a vector). Thenext operation, called the cross product, is written as 𝐀 ⃗ × ⃗𝐁 and yields a vector which isperpendicular to the plane spanned by the vectors 𝐀 ⃗ and ⃗𝐁 and the third operation produces ascalar and is called the triple scalar product, and denoted by 𝐀 ⃗ × ⃗𝐁 ⃘𝐂.The dot product provides a means to compute the length of the projection of a line segment onto ⃗ onto thesome intersecting line.

Behavioral intentions are particularly useful when a goal is eithercomplex and needs to be broken into component steps to achieve or when a goal is simple butrequires self regulation. For instance, a student in a course with a major final project will bemore successful if they form intentions for each of the component steps, rather than simplyhaving a goal to “do well on the project” without more specific plans ​[9]​; a student in a coursewith a heavy reading load may need to form the intention to do a little reading every day, ratherthan trying to push through

subject ofsustainability may be one message that provides an engineering focus that may be moreattractive to engineering, especially a focus on resource availability and social inequity. Thisfinding is consistent with results from the “Academic Pathways Study” (NSF ESI #0227558),which showed that female undergraduates saw projects in the broader context of social andenvironmental impact while males typically focused on more technical details [24]. In order todevelop engineering students prepared to address particular sustainability challenges, it isnecessary to diversify the types of outcome expectations of students in engineering.
