While thestudents work on these two parallel projects, a periodical intervention will help them connect thetechnical approaches to their academic project. For example, using journals and reflection tounderstand how students had to frame a problem, ask for help, evaluate options, and decide toimprove a toaster

of Computing in EngineeringThe need to learn computer programming is well understood in some engineering disciplines; forothers, the application of programming is less evident (Arjmandi, Woo, Mankelow, Loho,Shahbaz, Auckaili, & Thambyah, 2023). Coding builds independence, computational thinking,and the ability to reflect on and critique one’s efforts (Siu, 2022). For example, when studentslearn to debug code, they are learning the process of finding solutions to their errors and beingable to view things through a critical problem-solving lens (Siu, 2022) … just the things thatengineers need to know how to do. Therefore, this course familiarizes students withmicrocontrollers, an integral part of many modern, technological devices, with a

This self-paced format seemed to be a good fit for studentsexploring standards, with one student saying: Personally, I really preferred this type of module for AM standards over the typical lectures. Not to say that technical standards and AM standards aren't important, but it would be difficult to fully learn and understand them by just sitting through lectures about them. I thought the reflections and case study were the best activities to have gone through in the modules. Showing how to find standards and then trying to apply them and give reasoning to where they can be used was a good exercise, and made the overall topic

As such, learning effectiveness is first and foremostunderstood as relating to certain outcomes.However, measures of learning effectiveness go well beyond learning outcomes. Other measurescan be attitudes such as motivation [9, 10], satisfaction [9, 11], and initiative [7]. Some studiesmeasured learning effectiveness based on resources, teaching activities, and services provided[12], or instruction, curriculum management, and technological media [2]. As these measuresbetter reflect aspects of teaching practices, they may better represent teaching effectiveness thanlearning effectiveness. Notably, learning

The findings suggest that mastery-approach studentswould adopt self-reflection strategies at higher rates than performance-approach students. Asimilar pattern was found in a study of motivational orientations in pharmacy students and theirexam scores on multiple-choice and short-essay exams [57]. Findings indicated that the mastery-approach orientation correlates with higher scores on essay exams, while performance-avoidanceorientations correlate with lower scores on either exam type.

Writing a technical journal can be a valuable way for students to reflect on their daily workand progress. It can also serve as a record of their accomplishments, which may be helpful whenpreparing resumes or applications in the future. Students can use the technical journal to describethe tasks they performed, the challenges they faced, and the strategies they used to overcomethose challenges. They can also reflect on
