Connections made via reflection play a role in thedevelopment and practice of self-regulated learning [19]. Zimmerman’s cyclical model of self-regulated learning includes a self-reflection phase that captures the appraisal of learningexperiences in the immediate or distant past (performances) and connects the interpretations andlessons to planning (forethought) for future learning experiences. These self-reflections includeself-judgements and self-reactions. Self-judgements include evaluation of one’s performanceagainst some standard (e.g., class average or some prior performance) and attribution of

SCCT describes two types of personal goals referred to aschoice goals (the type of activity or career one wishes to pursue) and performance goals (thequality of performance one plans to achieve within a given task; Lent, 2013). SCCT suggests thatboth choice and performance goals are affected by an individual’s self-efficacy and outcomeexpectations.Interest and choice models of the SCCT frameworkWhile SCCT consists of four conceptually distinct, yet overlapping models, the researchersdecided to focus building an instrument around the

The outlined MEcurriculum at Georgia Tech institution suggests that a student should graduate with 129credit hours in 8 terms, or 4 years. The average time to graduation was 9.8 terms, whichis roughly 5 years. As seen in the figure, time to graduation tends to increase as the gradethat they received in these foundational classes decreases. For all courses, ‘A’ studentsgraduated on average in 9.4 terms, which is more than a term longer than Georgia Tech’sME curriculum plan.

The program emphasizes solving ill-defined problems; hence, participantsneed to be able to get the gist of the problem in the pre-planning stage prior to engaging inbuilding and using the robots. As such, program coordinators should reverse engineer tasks andtimes allotted to each phase of the engineering design.Lastly, several mentors pointed out that program administrators should expand the programactivities to expose the middle school youth to other areas within the STEM fields. For example,one mentor stated: expand more on the STEM aspect. Because it’s heavily [focused on] engineering and maybe mathematics, but less towards technology and science.
