the Development of Metacognition in Engineering Students in a Problem-Based Learning Program with a Think-Aloud ProtocolThis evidence-based practice paper focuses on how an engineering education program thatpromotes self-regulated learning impacts students’ problem-solving skills. Iron RangeEngineering (IRE) is an innovative, problem-based-learning (PBL) engineering program inVirginia, Minnesota. Throughout the curriculum of this program, students learn about and applymetacognitive skills necessary for self-regulating their learning. For the past several years, wehave been conducting research funded by the National Science Foundation1 to (1) identify themetacognitive skills inherent in self-regulated

In response to a call from theNational Science Foundation to establish a center for equity in engineering, a collective, namedPROTEGE, focused on organizational change at the graduate level is being established. One ofthe guiding principles for PROTEGE is to empower graduate students. This principle ismotivated by community engagement, where by involving community members in the decision-making and outcome-production process, they can feel more invested in the results of the workand feel a sense of ownership in the outcomes of the initiatives.

This limited impact is due to a host of factors, including the historicalexclusion of engineering content from K-12 education as well as lack of earmarked budgeting forsuch programs.

Even though literature indicatesthat oral communication has been identified as a learnable skill, and some institutions attemptto provide extracurricular communication skills training sessions, such training remainsseparate from the technical curriculum. Moreover, most of the STEM coursework is heavilyskewed towards writing, which ultimately hinders active engagement [10]. Due to this recentincrease attention on changing expectations from practicing STEM professionals, there is anurgent need to successfully develop new skills sets throughout students’ academic careers[12].

In order to allow the majority of STEM students andinstructors to reap the demonstrated benefits of oral assessment, it is therefore critical that wedevise and validate an effective and realistic means of implementing oral assessment in largeclasses. As STEM courses at many US universities (particularly the core courses) routinelycontain hundreds of students, there is a significant gap in existing research on oral assessment.The purpose of this study was to understand the practical approaches to implement oral exams inengineering classes as effective summative assessment components (as complements to existingassessments) to positively impact students’ learning, while mitigating the potential
