While it is easy to persuade people to follow the sustainability rules through guidelinesand laws, it is hard to have them believe it is the right thing to do. Some blame such fallacy onthe slow tangible consequences; i.e. if one cannot see and feel the consequences fast, all effortsare seen as waste of time [3]. Another reason to blame is the lack of clear and robust metrics toproperly measure and track sustainability which, in turn, reduces the adherence and motivation[4]. Other scholars blame the authorities for inadequate incentives to those who undertakesustainability initiatives [5]. Furthermore, following poor sustainability models lead manycompanies to

Van Meter, for example, designed andimplemented an intervention to improve students’ conceptual understanding of and reasoning onintroductory thermodynamics problems [33]. From an SRL perspective, the results of thesestudies suggest that early undergraduates have difficulty developing accurate and completeunderstandings of thermodynamics problems. The SRL literature documents several evidence-based teaching strategies that are purported to enhance students’ self-regulation skills [34]–[36].Self-evaluation is one example of such an instructional approach. During self-evaluation,students are commonly provided problem solutions and asked to reflect on their own problem-solving approaches or results. Self

America’s Promise (LEAP) was able to identify many suchHIPs that are gaining attention [1]. In a subsequent report, Kuh found that students whoparticipated in these HIPs show that they were positively affected by these activities, asmeasured by the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE). It was found that these“deep approaches to learning are important because students who use these approaches tend toearn higher grades and retain, integrate, and transfer information at higher rates [2].” Thus,what we set out to do is to apply HIPs to a 300- level engineering course at a state collegelevel and gather data regarding its effectiveness, student reflections, and possible futureimprovements for better learning outcomes.HIPs in a Mechanical

learning and writing support long-term memory, pattern recognition, faster problemsolving and learner confidence. Writing, too, has been shown in cognitive research to aid inachieving learning outcomes when used in targeted ways, such as in self-reflective inquiry,wherein students are asked to reflect on knowledge gaps or invited to connect old informationand new. Industry stakeholders have also identified writing and communication as a key area forincreased instructional attention and improvement. These research findings and industry valuesare further institutionalized through ABET student learning outcomes, particularly (g):“[demonstrate] an ability to communicate effectively.” However, conventional technical writingcourses typically focus on

Some of theseactivities are epistemic practices because they are directed towards gaining knowledge orincreasing understanding. Through reflection, epistemic metacognitive skills (EMS), on theirresearch activities and social interactions, students build and refine their knowledge of howresearch works. This knowledge of how research works affects students’ existing and developingbeliefs and perceptions about what a researcher does and about knowledge and knowing

Conversely,the effectiveness of hands-on learning can be reduced if there are inadequate levels of studentengagement and reflection [1] - [3]. Due to advances in portable data acquisition devices, laptopcomputers, and an array of affordable sensors, there is an unprecedented opportunity to bringhands-on experiments out of the centralized labs, and into lecture classrooms, and even studentdorm rooms. While such mobile hands-on experiments have had substantial inroads in the fieldsof electrical and computer engineering (ECE

First, we modeled the long-term effect ofour programming efforts on the percentage of females in the incoming residency class assumingthat we maintain our current level of programming indefinitely. We then adjusted selectparameters in the model to reflect “worst-case” assumptions for recruiting and retention inorthopaedic residency (see Table 2). This analysis is particularly important because our currentprogram evaluation data – on which the model parameters are based – reflect intermediaterecruitment and retention outcomes, e.g., intention to pursue orthopaedic surgery for high schoolparticipants rather than actual matriculation rates into residency.

Incontrast, feedback from students in project reflections and post-course conversations indicatedthat many students believed they had learned about thermodynamics from the project.Consequently, we determined that an additional year of testing with a revised assignment waswarranted.Revisions were driven by several observations of student behavior. Specifically, the teams offour students employed during the original design (i.e. Years 1-3) allowed them to specialize,and we often observed one or two team members being responsible for the video filming andediting, while the others specialized in the thermodynamics.
