To address this situation, the NationalAssociation of Engineers (NAE), the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology(ABET) and the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) have all generated reports aimedat reforming the existing engineering curriculum. As a result, the NAE’s Engineer of 20201,ABET’s Engineering Criterion 3 (EC 2000) 2, and ASCE’s Body of Knowledge (BOK) 3 all aimat shifting the existing

In theUnited States (U.S.) specifically, study abroad has become more popular due to the emphasisplaced on global citizenry by institutions and employers [2]. This demand has more than doubledstudents’ participation in study abroad programs over the past decades [3].

We explore the ways in whichthree students experience disabilities while enrolled in an undergraduate civil engineeringprogram as they become civil engineers. Our work addresses the following research question:How do students’ experiences with disability influence their professional identity in engineeringand vice versa?

Facilitate feedback: Giving constructive insights to individuals or teams concerning their performance or products, or facilitating the team to do so appears to effectively enable team formation and improve performance. Though the mentors and students were undergraduates, they were able to construct, give, and process feedback to improve their performance and teamwork. 2. Prompting students to think: Actions such as asking a team to explain their process or prompting an individual to assess a product appear to effectively activate learning. This indirect leading transfers the responsibility of learning to the students. 3
