Theopportunity to conduct undergraduate research develops students’ technical writing skills, buildsunderstanding of industry terminology and technology as well as efficiency of operatingexperimentation apparatuses. The paper further elaborates on the importance of incorporatingundergraduate research into the curriculum as this will prepare students to be socially, critically,and professionally adequate as they confidently enter the engineering work force and/or pursuehigher education. Undergraduate research not only adds a wealth of knowledge to the individual,but teaches patience, ethics, and discipline when applying processes and procedures and designingstandards that must be upheld because of the responsibility as professionals to protect the well

decline in cost for virtual reality and the increase inavailability are now making virtual reality a more attractive option for engineeringeducation.MethodsThrough this study we wish to introduce students to four professional development skills. Theseskills are leadership, teamwork, communication and ethics. Students will be taught thefundamentals of these skills and how they can be applied. Because these students are involved inexisting teams in a project environment, they will be able to utilize these skills immediately in thisprogram.The Make to Innovate program engages students in hands on learning through projects wherestudents solve a variety of problems to achieve the projects goals.

Although an experimental approach to improving engineering education isdemanding, it provides the only path to deriving unbiased estimates of the effects oflearning on students.

Students concur with us, also, that the self-graded homework helps them to takeresponsibility for their own learning. In addition to apparently improved student learning, anadded benefit to the faculty member is less grading. Self grading also creates a naturalopportunity to address ethics and integrity issues with students. The drawbacks for the facultymember include: twice as many homework scores to document and the need to provide detailed,correct, homework solutions. Further, when assigned, the faculty member may choose to readthe metacognition responses and, perhaps, respond to the student. Despite the added timerequirement, forming the detailed
