other than engineeringeducation and STEM education. Therefore, it is necessary to consider other possible sources forthe rise in student involvement in the field of engineering education.In parallel with the development of engineering education and STEM education degreeprograms, the engineering education community has been exposed to an emergence of student-focused activities within ASEE. These activities range from the growth of ASEE studentchapters to the development of the ASEE Student Constituent Committee.ASEE student chapters originated in 1993 when graduate students and faculty from PurdueUniversity established the first chapter with the following objectives in mind: - to mentor graduate students interested in engineering

Studentspreviously misunderstood that yield was “more important” and did not recognize that there areother failure modes that must be checked for in design. An instructor-developed concept mapwas used to help students see that, despite the large number of lectures required to fullyunderstand yield as a mode of failure, it was equally important as the other failure modes.

It presented background information, mindful teachingabout inclusion, some discussion of the students’ personal experiences in the course, and anintroduction to the activities. The three activities that were developed were (1) a communicationgame, which allowed students to practice clear and respectful communication, (2) a teamworkand collaboration game, which aimed to show that each member of a team had somethingvaluable to contribute, and (3) a reflection and

average rate of learning retention from a lecture is relativelylow compared with the learning retention associated with other learning activities such asdiscussion or “practice by doing” [2]. In a recent study, inspired by signals and systems theory, the engineering student learningwas linked to the assessment process that he/she undertakes during his/her studies. Modeled by aso-called “ideal sampler”, the assessment process is perceived as a system that takes a “snapshotof the student’s mind” on a regular basis, reconstructs the (continuous) “knowledge signal”acquired by the student and compares it to a “desired knowledge signal”. The resultingknowledge signal “error” is then used to simultaneously improve learning retention andevaluation
