In the twelve-week project period, theinterns examined the existing equipment and design constraints, gathered appropriate data,developed and presented preliminary designs to park staff, and completed a final project report.Early in the project period, the interns and their mentors from SERC met with park staff to tourthe two sites and examine the existing equipment. Park staff planned to build a new building toreplace the outmoded campground restroom and asked the UNPEPP interns to specify solarelectric and solar water heating systems for the new facility that would perform better than theexisting systems. Equipment at the site included a simple batch solar water heater and a 400-Watt (W) solar electric

We need a low cost, but highly effectivemeans to grow mentoring skills. Furthermore, since mentoring happens in the dynamics of aconversation, the skills growth process needs a “real-time” component.We believe that mentors can grow their skills quickly by reflecting on their performanceimmediately following a mentoring session and “scripting” more effective practices. The“scripts” are pre-planned responses the mentor will use in future mentoring situations. Thementor also relies on peer observer feedback recorded during the mentoring session to guide thewriting of the scripts. The scripts are then reviewed before

The Chilean president, Ricardo Lagos, who seesMercosur as a more ambitious plan, supports this also.

While results fromthe larger study will provide us with both longitudinal and cross-sectional data on the issuesdescribed, this paper reports only on the first round of interviews with the freshman cohort of 53students.

Self-directed learning became a model that distinguished adult learners by theirability to plan, carry out, and evaluate their learning at their own time, despite juggling job andschool responsibilities [23]. However, with the view that learners become increasingly self-directed as they mature, there was a growing argument that self-direction should be developed inyounger learners too [23].In recent times, the distinction between children and adults has become less distinct; somescholars argue that andragogy falls within pedagogy [25] and others have explored andragogicalmethods with participants aged 18 and above [26-27].

We also had the opportunity to bond over teachers, experiences, and life as a whole. My partner gave me another option to a future career path. After all of that, this was a valuable learning experience for me. It taught me things about myself, about my future, eliminated some stress associated with post- graduation plans, helped me make a networking connection/friend, and let me reflect on my college experience and what I liked and dislike.” “The Legacy Project was a nice change of pace for a course that is otherwise very number, figure, and concept
