Students were given structured prompts to guide their reflections.Throughout the quarter, these prompts became more open ended, based on group discussions.Prompts related to A) student experiences B) resources C) design and fabrication, D) topics fromthe previous meeting, E) project choice, and F) different modes of learning. In this analysis wedraw from reflection entries where students speak about design or instruction sets and tutorials.In six of the ten weeks, prompts explicitly related to design were posed. These

The seed form was designed basedon teaching style, the students and their preparation, and the courses. The second iteration removedtwo questions and added thirteen leveraging our process for capturing sentiment. Since these factorsvary widely, our particular form may not be appropriate for other courses. Although the questionsare not solely limited to the field of engineering, they do reflect feedback from students in ourdiscipline. We do not believe there is a one-size-fits-all review form — it is a mistake to use onetuned to a specific course/discipline without going through the process of iteratively mining
