, therefore the percentages reported below must be interpreted cautiously.Taxonomy and Tool DesignDeveloping the taxonomy and tagging the assessment tools was conducted through a four-stagecoding process (Figure 2). In Stage 1, the team used the data from the interviews, cards, literaturesearch, and focus group to begin a preliminary taxonomy of “tags” that might help facultynavigate assessment tools. In Stage 2, using this taxonomy, the research team coded a sample ofassessment tools deductively with these tags, first coding each item by common assessmentterms (e.g., formative/summarize and direct/indirect) as well as terms that we anticipated wouldbe of interest to users such as class size (e.g., small/large) or level of expertise required.

The first offering ofthis program occurred during summer of 2009 with three engineering faculty members selectedto provide guidance to four freshmen. The students had the opportunity to not only work on theirprojects, but also to learn about projects that other students and faculty were doing in the basicsciences. This paper will present the early results of this program, both for the summer portionand the on-going mentoring relationships.

It is these networks that can be used to enhance the classroom experience providedthat it is done appropriately. For example, the use of feedback and commenting can be used tohelp strengthen a shared experience and form a bond around a lecture topic.This paper introduces an in-class activity, referred to as the Michigan Lecturer Competition, thatis targeted at large, introductory engineering courses, but can also be used in small classroomswith similar effectiveness. The goal of this in-class activity is to incorporate a competition alongwith a collaborative atmosphere into the regular classroom

ClassesIntroductionIn recent years, engineering programs have experienced an increase in the number of studentsadmitted due to the growing demand for young Engineering professionals. Lower divisionengineering classes, offered to students from multiple engineering disciplines, have been facingchallenges to accommodate a large number of admitted students. Even though such courses maybe offered in numerous sessions every semester, a ratio of one instructor to 100+ students istypical in these classes. The large class size and lack of support available to students in theseclasses contribute to high failure rate and significantly lower the retention rate.

The demand from industry is to provide engineers that are not only technicallycompetent, but that can thrive in a group environment and lead a team to design a better product.The challenge for educators then, is to introduce more design within socially relevant contextsinto their curriculum starting at the freshman level without decreasing student retention.
