Formative assessment include abstract writing and reviewing, a 3-Minute Thesis (3MT) style presentation, an impact study, and a graduate student conference withoral presentations and posters. The assignments are not given numerical grades, but the studentsare provided with written feedback from instructors, Teaching Assistants and their peers. Oralpresentations (3MT and student conference) are judged by faculty members, and theentrepreneurship tournament finalists are judged by entrepreneurs from industry and academia.4.

responded to thechallenges of ABET EC2000, we have elected to take a slightly different approach withthe focus on projects but with additional emphasis on developing the critical and creativethinking skills that will enable our students to stay enrolled in engineering and besuccessful in the upper-level required discipline specific engineering courses. An integrated approach similar in some respects to the present work has beendescribed by Watret and Martin [1]. They sought to connect mathematics and physics,incorporate common technology into each course, incorporate integrated exams thatrequire the use of mathematics and physics to solve engineering problems andincorporate more writing and presentations by students in class.

These include lack of support andrecognition [2], inadequate advising [3], and feelings of disconnection to peers and faculty [4]–[6]. In addition to these factors linked with negative student outcomes, research has alsoidentified a host of best practices linked to positive student outcomes. Called high-impactpractices, these include learning communities, first-year seminars, writing-intensive courses,problem-based learning, collaborative assignments, and research and service opportunities [7].Specific to engineering, the use of hands-on collaborative design projects

Student classroom engagement greatly involves peer-to-peer interaction and not student-to-machine interaction. Nevertheless, student classroom engagement is complex and broad to behandled in one direction. Some researchers classified student behavior as a predictor of classroomengagement [11]. Likewise, Appleton, Christenson, and Furlong [12] classified factors thataffected student classroom engagement into two categories namely; the indicators and thefacilitators. The author further divided indicator factor into three categories namely: affective,behavioral, and cognitive and the facilitator

Students in both sections on average rated the ethicsassignments highly for learning ethics issues and being able to choose topics, with more mixedratings of the ability to analyze their own capstone projects.
