Students werethen given the task of analyzing and reporting the data throughout the semester. To examine therelationship between field work and student attitudes and perception on field studies, students inan environmental engineering laboratory course were assigned a reflection paper before and afterperforming the field work exercise. Further reflection was given by the instructor of the labcourse on student’s performance, attitudes, and the instructor’s perception of the field study.Final results revealed a positive response by both students and instructors in regard to

indicated thatstudents were successfully able to use integration to determine the area of the plate (see Fig.1)but were unable to find its centroid. Common reasons given by the participants for this inabilitywere the lack of applications of centroids being taught or reinforced within the curriculum afterthey were initially taught. Student participants also displayed novice or rote approaches tosolving the problem rather than following what might be considered a more logical,“engineering” problem solving approach grounded in fundamental theory and governingequations. Both the faculty participants (n=2), as well as the single student (male, sophomore)who came closest to the correct answer, displayed significant reflective practices in evaluatingtheir

the need for reflection in criticalthinking for ill-structured problem scenarios. Students often assume that whatever enhancesperformance in the short-term will enhance performance in the long-term, but in fact,circumstances that make initial acquisition more difficult may improve later performance. Afocus on metacognition may fall into that category. Numerous studies have shown that goodproblem solvers (experts) differ from poor problem solvers (novices) in their use ofmetacognition. Although few studies have directly assessed whether the relationship is causal,the assumption is that as students become more aware of their own thinking and problem solvingprocess and of the effectiveness of different strategies, their learning will be

reflection on their learning accessed their feedback more often thanthose who do not [6]. So it is hypothesized that students who do reflections will score higher onproposed factor 2 (timely review of feedback) than those that do not. Of the 1213 students, 226were enrolled in sections of the course that used structure-reflection [6]; 874 were enrolled insections that did no or minimal (e.g., minute paper) reflection. To test the hypothesis that thescores obtained for factors associated with timely review of feedback were higher for sectionsthat did reflection than those that did no or minimal reflection, a Kruskal-Wallis test and aWilcoxon Rank test were used. These two non-parametric tests were chosen over the parametrict-test due to the Likert
