Exploring Student Perceptions of Teamwork in a Summer Outreach ProgramAbstractIncreasing numbers of summer outreach programs aim to engage students in science, technology,engineering and mathematics (STEM). A common approach to these programs is project-basedlearning (PBL), which often involves working in teams. Ideally, students participating in theseprograms work together in teams to apply the STEM knowledge gained from their programexperiences; these intentional communication and collaboration experiences are also likely toenhance students’ teamwork skills. However, team experiences are not always positive, andsome team members may not feel welcome to contribute. Team experiences can negatively affectstudents’ sense

In terms of engagement, only aminority of the participants completed all of the journaling and essay assignments. Such reflectionis critical to the pedagogical approach. Further, students participating in the virtual workshopswere potentially impacted by all of the distractions that oftentimes accompany that deliverymodality. Again, active engagement in the workshop discourse is a theoretically criticalcomponent of the pedagogical approach. Lastly, not all students attended the final workshop.

PBL stems from constructivism,and contrasts with traditional lecture-based methods by actively engaging students in the learningprocess through structured, practical experiments. The essential PBL criteria based on HQPBLinclude: intellectual challenges, authenticity, public product, collaboration, project management,and reflection. Studies have shown various implementations of PBL, highlighting its benefits inenhancing student engagement

While student design contexts differ in important ways fromprofessional practice,4-5 the program-based engineering education context represents animportant space for novice engineers to learn about and develop understandings that will impacttheir future engagement in design. In the context of design, there are many different values, such as innovation or a primaryconcern for safety, that guide design decisions and processes and can impact how designers thinkabout the ethical issues related to their designs and the implications of their “everyday” ethicaldecisions.

However, existing research has indicated that thebenefits of participating in team-based, project-based learning experiences are not always sharedby all students, and sociodemographic characteristics, such as race/ethnicity, sex/gender,socioeconomic status, and international student status, can inform the socioacademic dynamicsby which students come to participate (in)equitably in engineering teamwork.The

educational technology has given rise to a theory ofpersonalized learning communities [3]. While notions about personalizing education has oftenfocused on technology, important research strands have focused on areas that are not intrinsicallytechnological, including the value of eliciting or exposing student conceptual systems as anoperational starting place for acquiring new knowledge – in contrast to imparting predeterminedconcepts as the operational starting point. Indeed, any approach to knowledge development thatfocuses on conceptual systems rather than a predetermined chain of new ideas contrasts sharplywith typical curricula. Page
