This study recommends breaking down various topics and test student’sknowledge in those areas [8]. Project based learning is limited to few design applications and hencestudent’s understanding levels of the core concepts are still unknown.Active LearningActive learning is described in different ways and some of them include: a) actively engaging students withthings and giving students an opportunity to think about the things, b) Learn content through reading andlistening and reciprocating content, ideas and issues through talking and writing, c) increase

[16]. We extended the approach reported elsewhere ofidentifying evidence of framing agency [17]. Such techniques build on observations that agencycan be detected in talk, such as by evaluating the subjects of sentences (“I” versus “we” versus“it”) and the kinds of verbs used (“did” versus “should” versus “must”) [18, 19]. Extending suchtechniques to the analysis of written artifacts presents additional challenges, as studentscommonly use passive voice in technical writing, a trend that is reflected as well in publications[20]. We therefore considered other evidence for agency and ownership, such as detailed first-hand depictions and clarity about decisions.Results and discussionWe organize our results by research question, first detailing the

While MEAs have demonstrated success across a broad spectrum of characteristics(e.g., improved retention of women, increased experience with peer review, improvedprofessional skills attainment), adoption of MEAs can be challenging, in part because MEAs aretime consuming to meaningfully implement and evaluate, as well as initially design and develop[10-12]. Not only is there a lot of resistance for faculty buy-in, many students complain about theworkload required to complete the activities.

Infact, she also enjoyed writing – so much so that she actually dual majored in Technical Writing.She tells me that the reason she didn’t pursue writing as a career is because she couldn’t see anyviable career options, whereas in engineering, there were plenty of job opportunities. WhereasTeresa felt the need to resolve her competing interests in the elevator pitch itself, Christine omitsthem entirely, perhaps feeling that her writing interests confuse the narrative too much or areirrelevant because they are not practical.One factor Teresa omitted was an admission later

thus they will default to a role that is more familiar or is perceived to be less challenging. Another reason that a student may take on a certain role is that that the student may become pigeon-holed into a certain role: if a student volunteers to write the first progress memo, for example, the other team members may expect that student will complete subsequent writing assignments, thus not leaving enough time for the student to take on other tasks. Or, another example is that there could be a student who previously had a lot of experience on a robotics team, and thus is expected by their teammates to do the wiring or coding work for the course project. This keeps that student from experiencing
