This study will focuson this temporal aim of reflection as it is closely tied to individual’s values of reflection.Our current work is framed by Expectancy-Value Theory (EVT) (Wigfield & Eccles 2000,Eccles & Wigfield 2002) focusing specifically on how individuals value their current reflectionactivities. Task value is influenced by utility value, attainment value, intrinsic value, and cost.Utility value refers to the perceived usefulness of the task towards achieving an individual’sfuture plans or goals.

Engineering is a complex degree program because many studentshave to start preparing for this degree while in high school by building up their mathematics andscience knowledge. For engineering students to start an engineering degree program, they startwith calculus, and are considered behind schedule starting with a lower level mathematicscourse. Although high school students may start planning for an engineering degree programduring their freshman to senior years, many students do not know what the different disciplinesof engineering are and what they do. In Changing the Conversation 1, they show that many highschool students do not have a realistic comprehension of the practice of engineering
