With this methodology, the instructor showedthe students how to apply three hierarchical levels: learning and using basic thinking tools,learning and practicing a systematic process for problem solving, and working with realproblems. The thinking tools described in level one include analogical thinking7, brainstorming8,mind mapping9, and others.

However, I believe that the way the school system is currently set up, rote learning is rewarded favorably over conceptual learning. While a conceptual learning style would be favorable on exams if the concepts were allowed to be solidified in students' minds, 10-week terms packed to the brim with engineering work does not allow time for some conceptual learners to attain confidence with the concepts.

Therefore, we must instill alarger culture change in engineering education that recognizes that systems of education, as wecurrently know, structure, and implement them, were not created with students with disabilitiesin mind. In some instances, these institutions were created to intentionally exclude anddiscourage students with disabilities from pursuing degrees in higher education

If that is the case, students need to understand the full context thatcreates a need for a particular genre rather than simply learning the genre. With this in mind, theFellows began to ask: how does teaching writing need to shift for the engineering educator? Howcan they model for students writing and communicating as evolving from engineering practiceand therefore as a part of engineering identity rather than separated from it? To guide the Fellow’s discussion around this evolution away from teaching engineeringstudents writing with genre as a template, the Writing Center Director suggested reading

Creating these inclusive environments requires individuals to practice behaviors thatfoster individuals’ feelings of belonging.

Ultimately, in order to secure aquality experience for as many students as possible, we will need to be mindful of the number ofclinical mentors we need to coordinate with, as well as the time each clinical mentor has for eachstudent.We define student success as the clinical mentoring team committing resources (money, time, etc.)to directly build-on the actionable problem statement developed by the student's team within sixmonths of the end of the course.
