The most prevalent types ofreflection activities used in engineering education are essays and portfolios12. The reflectionexercises described here involve essay assignments that ask students to reflect on their priorexperiences regarding a variety of non-technical skills. The prior experiences are not restricted toany specific course or project context and may be from students’ personal or academicbackgrounds.The aims of the self-reflection assignments are to promote student awareness of non-technicalskills, motivate students
