We also describe the successesand challenges experienced as we near completion of the second of three cycles, andimplications for future community building efforts. One finding is that community at the locallevel is crucial. While expanding the national community of engineering education researchersis important, scholars who are new to the field need a community of like-minded colleagues withwhom they can give and receive feedback on works-in-progress. We also found that engineeringfaculty tend to have difficulty with particular aspects of educational research, such as navigatinga new disciplinary language, utilizing qualitative research methodologies, and analyzingqualitative data.

Alternatively, McKeachie suggests guiding students toward developingspecific learning goals for a given course and requiring that they track their progresstoward these goals as a means of motivation24. By remaining mindful of these relativelystraightforward ways in which students may be motivated, instructors can be betterequipped to promote positive efficacy.ConclusionsBoth first-year engineering students enrolled in an honors program and those not

Recently it was reported in a local news paper thata professor in University of Dayton had introduced the concept of model plane building tofreshman engineering students1. But no further information was forthcoming. In the above cases, the time line for building and flying a plane ranged from 10 hours to months.Based on our course curriculum, it was decided that 4-5 hours per team could be allotted for thisproject. With this in mind, the criterion for this event was: • Building and flying the plane should be completed in less than 5 hours. • Every student on a team
