His work broadly centers on K-20 education and the nexus of media, technology, humans, and society. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Reflective Faculty Peer Observation in EngineeringAbstractIt is now widely held that student evaluations of teaching provide an insufficient measure ofteaching effectiveness, particularly when they are the only metric used. One alternative measureis faculty peer observation. We have developed a novel faculty peer observation protocol focusedon self-reflection and formative feedback for STEM faculty. Engineering faculty have found theprotocol helpful and used the method to expand professional networks

Design in Engineering Education
Engineering Education from Purdue University.Dr. Charles Xie c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Reflection in Time: Using Data Visualization to Identify Student Reflection Modes in DesignAbstract: In design, reflection is a central practice that helps designers evaluate past strategies,synthesis knowledge they’ve gained and plan future actions. For novice designers, developingreflection abilities may be particularly important as it may both help them develop this specificability and more broadly develop their design thinking abilities. However, the design process isfluid with distinct design stages that may happen in varying order and repeat or cycle in asequence unique to the

embed social, political and economic context intoengineering education, particularly in engineering for sustainable community development, sothat engineers better understand the wider impacts that can result from their interventions. Onesuch method is the integration of reflective exercises within engineering course work.This paper traces the adoption of critical reflection as a core pedagogical strategy in anengineering management program focused on sustainable international development within oneUK university. Critical reflection, which stems from a critical scholarly tradition, asks us toquestion our assumptions, recognize the role that power plays in shaping our social reality, anduse reason to advance our emancipatory thinking and

Students provided self-assessment of CTskills at the beginning of the course (pre-course assessment), and at the end of the course (post-course assessment). Students also provided a retrospective pre-test score, where they were askedto self-assess CT skills by reflecting back on their level of skill prior to taking the course.Students in Course 2 provided self-assessment of CT skills at the end of the course through aretrospective pre-test and a post-test.

The hypothesiswas that asking students more questions would cause the students to reflect on the task at hand,which would in turn increase learning. This study was motivated by work on experientiallearning, particularly Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle, which suggests that

Prior to the exams or during the exams, students were not instructed to gothrough the guides. During the final exam, students were asked to respond to the following twoopen-ended questions, and their reflection on the questions were assessed. 1. Do you normally go through the guide and the grading criteria included next to each problem before attempting the problem? 2.
