The narratives presented in this paper were collected as part of a weeklyone-hour reflection seminar that all students in the program are required to enroll in each semester. One ofthe goals of the course is to give students the opportunity to think about the connections between theirliberal arts courses and the general liberal arts university experiences, with what they are learning in theirengineering specific courses and experiences. In an attempt to create a student-centered body ofknowledge that initiates the dissolution of the techno-social dualism prevalent in engineering education,we present here student narratives and a discussion based on these narratives to

Specifically, students who effectively employ metacognitivestrategies, such as reflection and self-assessment, are more likely to master the problem solvingskills that are essential to programming success [3].Writing to learn (WTL) activities promote metacognition in any discipline. Based on the ideathat writing is a visual representation of thinking [4], WTL activities are usually short, low-stakes writing assignments that are designed to promote reflection, analysis, synthesis, anddeeper understanding of course material. When integrated into a problem-solving assignment,such as a programming lab, WTL prompts allow students to think about the choices they aremaking and the reasons for those choices. When

Reversing attrition from civil and environmental engineering is acritical need for addressing society’s grand challenges effectively. This attrition is due in part tolimited discipline-focused engagement until students’ junior year. To address this, the School ofCEE is providing early engagement in authentic engineering experiences and giving students theopportunity to reflect on these experiences to solidify their CEE identity.
