progress describes a pilot to incorporate critical reflection activities, completed byindividuals and by teams, during the implementation of design activities in an early-career,project-based learning context. As described in full below, critical reflection has beendemonstrated as a high-impact practice that can deepen learning and cultivate a productivefuture-oriented mindset [1]–[3]. Thus, activities that incorporate reflection into projects havegrown in use and garnered increased attention in engineering education for their transformativepotential [4]–[6]. Further, consistently engaging in reflection on learning as a community has thepotential to develop environments and classroom cultures that value student growth andcommunity [7].Critical

Although there are many advantages to this dual degree program, there are still somedrawbacks as well. The major drawback is from an institutional side and is related to one of thestudent advantages. Students never see bills from the secondary university. Everything is sentthrough the business offices between the two schools. The communication between these officescan be difficult at times, and sometimes students will get lost in the shuffle. Those bills end upnot being paid and billed

The expectation of theSafeChE initiative is that these real-world case studies will show students howknowledge they are obtaining in their current class can be applied to safety within afuture career in industry. Also, since the CSB investigates incidents within the UnitedStates, some of our domestic students may study an incident that occurred “close tohome”.Another aspect

At times the otherintern will have the answer and on other occasions the two students will work together toconstruct a solution.

Additionally, the exponential growth of information technology has evolved with the workflows among various entities involved in a project.

Nevertheless, the current scenario is that students inSTEM fields, with their increased demand for more specialized skills in fewer credit hourscombined with a lack of emphasis on writing from engineering faculty members, makeaddressing this need difficult. In addition, students in engineering fields often do not valuewriting skills and underestimate the amount of writing they will do in their careers. Hence, it isessential to understand and quantify the level of writing skills STEM students exhibit in theirtechnical courses so that mitigation efforts can be designed using commonly available resourcesto enhance this important skillset among the students

To remedy this, we solicited input andbuy-in from a range of individuals to ensure the program’s future, as well as to build “bench-depth.”While the explicit target audience was engineering majors, the program was also open to non-engineering majors with suitable STEM backgrounds.
