engineeringgraduates.Research GoalsThis research project aligns with the university wide Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) initiative.The course makes it clear that the undergraduate research experience provides appropriatescaffolding. In other words, students learn some foundational information and gain researchexperiences. Junior students are paired with more experienced students to learn the technicalaspects of design. Short lectures / hands-on instruction is done throughout the semester. The courseis structured according to the best practices for collaborative projects. There are frequentopportunities for students to receive feedback from peers and the instructor at different phases ofthe research. Students get the opportunity to work individually and in teams. The

The recitation periodoccurred from 9:10 AM to 10:00 AM in a lecture hall seating approximately 40 students. Afterthe introduction, a total of 37 students opted to participate in the experiment.The experiment as administered is divided into three segments: a pre-survey, two exam-formatproblems, and a post-survey. All materials were accessed online; participants were provided aseries of internet links to direct them to each component of the study. Each participant wasprovided a single sheet of paper on which to write any scratch work necessary to complete
