These metacognitive strategies enableengineers to deal with uncertainty by continuously engaging in acts of self-evaluation, self-monitoring and reflection as they work through the engineering design process.10, 13 The use of acollaborative environment has been found to help engineers reduce and manage uncertainty.10, 14Shin and his colleagues14 explain that working in teams allows engineers to reduce ambiguity bydistributing the knowledge and skills and collectively making decisions.

Therefore, the purpose ofthis paper is to explore a developmental approach to engineering success that allowsintrospection of the individual and building of community. Data were collected throughout thequarter in an attempt to answer the following research questions: • What can we learn from an emphasis on intentional activities and reflective writing to help first-generation students develop an “engineering identity” and ownership over their engineering major? • Does a course focused on relationship building, diversity, and social awareness improve first-generation students’ sense of

As can be seen from the bottomof Table 2, the average school wide GPA was 2.57. The average GPA in the programs follows thesame order as the aforementioned minimum entrance requirements by program. This result is tobe expected, as those who did the best in first year would be expected to continue to achieve highresults in their second year. On the other hand, the material in Dynamics is more aligned with theinterests and strengths of Mechanical and Civil Engineers than with Chemical Engineers. Thisalignment may indicate that students are not necessarily enrolled in the program that is bestaligned

The mostprominent pedagogies of integration include service-learning, problem-based learning,collaborative learning, and experiential learning (10).

This course is ideal for service learningbecause students struggle with the material, complaining it is “too theoretical”, and can feelanonymous in a large lecture course. Yet, there are few examples of how to successfullyintegrate service-learning ideas, including reflection activities, into a high-enrollment course thattraditionally focuses heavily on quantitative fundamentals.This paper details the design, student work
