Using a case study method, this research willassess the influential factors that motivate senior and graduate engineering students in Lebanonto engage in such a mission during Spring 2013. This investigation brings insights into thecurrent situation as well as contributes to the literature by providing a deeper understanding ofhow and why engineering students develop an interest or a lack of interest in natural disastervolunteerism.

H5 had notbeen a team player in high school; after she came to HMC, she found the assignments so difficultthat she actually needed her teammates in order to complete them. For students like H5, learninghow to work in teams is one of the biggest challenges in college: very often it is nearlyimpossible to find a meeting time that fits everyone’s distinct and busy schedule, not to mention

Assessment of the initial offering included a pre and post diagnostic quizwith 9 multiple choice questions on PID controller tuning and a final survey to gage studentsatisfaction and gain feedback on the experience. There was marked improvement in the overallpercent of correct answers to the diagnostic quiz as this value increased from 33 % in the prequiz to 49 % in the post quiz. While the percent of correct answers is not a high as we wouldlike, the non-stellar performance can be attributed to the inherent difficulty of the questions andthe timing and preparation for the quiz. The pre quiz was taken on the first day of class withoutwarning or preparation. Most students had essentially no knowledge of PID

The intention of the module was to engage students and toteach them some basic concepts on circuits and electronics. Due to the fact that the module wasdelivered in a few weeks, we limited the survey to some general questions that allowed us to testknowledge gained from the module as well as any change in interest in engineering.

There was still a lack of engagement in the online instruction and therefore alack of preparation for face-to-face exercises that needed to be addressed.

The most significant difference is that non-participantsachieve higher Math ACT scores. The only individual exam on which participantsachieve significantly higher scores is the ACT Science test. This particular assessment isdesigned to measure the student’s ability to interpret scientific data; therefore, it is notsurprising that participants score higher on this scale. However, the statisticalsignificance of this finding is small (p=0.06), and needs to be probed
