Despite their successes, an area that theengineering education community has yet to fully develop is the reflection component of service-learning.”3 We have made a conscious choice to keep the project housed outside the bounds of a forcredit course due to student feedback which will be specifically discussed in the results section.RESULTS The exhibits that have been created over the years have varied greatly in design and have grown in depthand complexity over that

These courses provided students with theopportunities to learn and practice real-world software engineering, and gain experiences insolving multidisciplinary practical problems. Furthermore, these courses help students to attainseveral ABET student outcomes that are difficult to accomplish via traditional lecture-based andlab-based courses, such as (f) an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility, (i) arecognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning, and (j) a knowledge ofcontemporary issues.These

The active learning via project-based, activity-based, and service-based courseswithin the first-year engineering curriculum has proven effective for students not only to becomemore engaged and motivated but also to experience increased learning and retention. Generally,first-year engineering courses are meant to create student experiences that are meaningful, open-ended, and hands-on in addition to being an introduction to working and communicatingeffectively within teams.
