The School Visits program focuses on giving high schoolstudents, from different levels and social status, orientations to help them gather a concrete visionof each one of the engineering fields offered at UPRM. The program promotes students’ interestand engagement in their field of study but also fosters their creativity and sense of belonging thatwill result in a successful career.

McCord [30] has studied metacognitiveengagement in self-directed study groups in order to develop a qualitative approach that usesobservations to study students’ actual engagement in metacognition. Litzinger, Meter, Firetto,Passmore, Masters, Turns, Gray, Costanzo and Zappe [16] found that students who engagedmore frequently in metacognitive monitoring performed better on statics problems using a thinkaloud protocol. Cunningham, Matusovich, Hunter and McCord [31] continue to investigate theimpact of targeted instruction of metacognition on engineering learning and performance.

This goesnicely with Secs 3.1.2 and 3.1.3 as it shows that there is true learning happening that allows thestudents to grow throughout the course. It is fascinating that zero students indicated that theyunderstood what electrical engineering was prior to the course. Just this finding alone is evidenceenough for why such classes are so greatly important.3.2 Course evaluationsUniversity-administered course evaluations contain both numerical and qualitative responses.

Leveraging this understanding, they went beyond mereimplementation of a stock procedure and instead developed a procedure tailored to the specificequipment and requirements of our observatory.
