PBL allows students to engage in complex, ill-formed,and open-ended problems which fosters flexible thinking and supports intrinsic motivation.16These characteristics can be further encouraged by group discussion of potential solutions,critical instructor feedback, and essential self-reflection during and following the learning event.A.

According to philosopherPeter Facione, critical thinking is defined as the intellectually disciplined process of actively andskillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating informationgathered from, or generated by, observation, experience, reflection, reasoning, orcommunication, as a guide to belief and action [4]. In layman’s terms, critical thinking isreflectively thinking through and making decisions about a problem using logic and

This paper presentsa case study where design students were encouraged to discuss failure in the context of designloops using reflection journaling and continuously evolving design requirements.IntroductionSuccess of undergraduate engineering design projects can be measured in many ways, fromquality of learning, to ability to engage in teamwork, to completion of all technical detailsspecified at the onset. While Twin Cities Engineering (TCE) students show a range ofdevelopment and were able to meet programmatic outcomes, only one of 13 design teams in thelast three semesters has completely met all measures of success.

This approach provided guidance tothe participants as they reflected on the entirety of their design project while allowing them thefreedom to express their unique experiences and thoughts. Interview questions were designed tospecifically follow the stages of the design process8 and, at times, to target detailed descriptionsof the use of prototypes. These questions helped to elicit information about how the use ofprototypes impacted the design process and how students learned from prototypes.Interview question were developed iteratively.

Pedagogical research hasfound that writing assignments effectively facilitate learning by forcing students to exploreconnections and patterns in the studied material9,10. These benefits of writing assignments areenhanced in fields such as engineering, since students are rarely assigned reflective writing tasksand thus have few opportunities to develop associated abilities11,12.

Additionally, because the sample has focused on only one institution so far, our resultsmay not be reflective of faculty perceptions at other institutions. Specifically, many of ourengineering department faculty are applied mathematicians and scientists who switched toengineering rather than engineers by training. Additionally, our institution is a top five, highlyselective engineering program which may skew the expectations of our faculty on students’abilities.4.

In peer evaluation 1,only three of the 21 senior design teams made comments indicative of conflict (communicationproblems, uneven workload, etc.). In peer evaluation 2, however, that increased to one third (7 of21) of the teams having one or more comment suggesting a team dynamic or cohesion issue.This increase in reports of negative team-cohesion may be reflective of end-of-term stress andfrustration of working under pressure potentially captured by the timing of peer evaluation 2.Only one team, Team B, reported team dynamic issues in

Another difference is that only about 15% of the online enrollment consists ofstudents from Arizona, whereas about 75% of our face-to-face students are eligible for “in-state”tuition. This relative lack of online “in-state” students is by design.

Which of these things are already areas of strength for you? 2. What kinds of qualities or skills do you want to strengthen while you are in school to help you become an engineer? 3. What
