attitude is based on a constructivist approach to thecognitive process.Constructivism is a theory of learning. It holds that students construct knowledge rather thanmerely receive it. It has been extremely influential in science and mathematics and is oftenreferred to as the dominant theory of learning today6. Constructivists view the learner as a‘active entity’ and hold that knowledge is constructed in the learner’s mind rather thantransmitted from teacher to learner7. Central to constructivist theory is the concept of the ‘mental Proceedings of the 2001 American Society for Engineering Education Annual Conference & Exposition Page

Much of theprevious literature on CEL experiences, including those in engineering, focus on course-basedprojects [9], [10]. There is relatively little literature focusing on co-curricular student groups andtheir engagement with CEL. With this in mind, this study seeks to understand current communityengagement strategies used by engineering students in co-curricular student groups.MethodologyA survey was selected as the best means of collecting data from a variety of members (executiveand non-executive) within each student group. This method was chosen as the desired data couldbe obtained using a survey, and the survey format allowed a larger number of responses

given to each student: Course: This is a three-hour survey course whose aim is to give you a brief exposure to the biomedical and rehabilitation engineering field. As such, it is impossible for me to transmit any knowledge to you in detail. I hopefully will present you with a pretty good feel for the field, based on my 35 years of experience in it. To be fair, it also follows that assignments cannot have real depth. But they can be broad, and the can test the developing status of your engi- neering mind. The overview of necessity will not be comprehensive - rather an in depth look at each topic is left to other topical classes that you will take later in your academic career.

Specific topics inthese classes include metacognitive strategies, time management strategies, goal setting, developinga growth mindset, and practicing self-care techniques such as mindfulness and staying sociallyconnected.Given engineering students have unique experiences and struggles within these different areas, wedecided to build our program within the College of Engineering to address their particular
