As part of an existing project, my team and I have been exploring mechanisms forlearning about student experiences with reflection activities. We created a reaction protocol tounderstand students’ experience, or reactions, with exam wrappers, a common reflection activitygiven in relation to an exam in engineering education (Kaplan et al., 2013). The reaction protocolis a structured, interactive interviewing tool. We were able to conduct eight interviews withundergraduate engineering students using the reaction protocol.While the purpose of the reaction protocol was to learn about the student experience in order tounderstand and redesign reflection

Engineers are entrusted with the task ofreconciling various view points in order to reach a consensus acceptable to all stakeholders. ArtisticEngineering is a new course that explores the engineering and non-engineering aspects of structures.Students are asked to select a structure whose design embodies an insightful appreciation of the role eachof the above factors plays in shaping the structure. Teams of two students, an engineer and a liberal artist,are charged with conducting a study that critically looks into the parameters considered in the design.

However, theresults were inconclusive because the two factors could not be studied independently. There was additional concern that the hybrid format negatively affected student retention. As aresult, faculty teaching Engineering Mechanics began an endeavor to try to understand the issuesassociated with student retention. The first step in this effort involved quantifying incomingstudent capability with tests on prerequisite material in Statics and Mechanics of Materials courses.Results showed that the pre-tests were moderately correlated with the end of semester grade pointwith Pearson correlation coefficient of ~0.45 for Statics

For mechatronics students, it was believed that givingthem some insight to the fundamentals of DSP and data acquisition would benefit them inthis advance computer era.This paper describes the work produced by a team of 3 students. They were put together fora hands-on learning experience in Mechatronics engineering. The rationale for hands-onlearning in engineering had been widely studied by many researchers and in one particularstudy conducted by Ferguson and Hegarty7, they carried out an experiment and investigatedon how college students learned the mechanics of pulley

If a program has additional funds, stand-alone commercial batch reflow ovenswith adjustable profiles are available for around $4000 from some of the suppliers listed at theend of this paper.

Further, general models 5,6 provide for a one-dimensional assessment practice. That is, collect and analyze the data then make curriculummodifications to rectify any problems identified through data analysis 7. As a refinement of thegeneral models, assessment experts argue that the process of data triangulation, collection ofthree sets of data to examine the same phenomenon, strengthens the validity of assessmentresults 4,8.Recent research on evaluating engineering program effectiveness has focused on the portion ofthe ABET standards mandated in EC 2000 related to demonstrating achieving student outcomes9 .
