Session Description

Free ticketed event
The intentional integration of reflection alongside traditional engineering learning activities has the potential to facilitate all students’ development as self-directed learners. Through careful consideration of the anchors for reflections and the use of metacognitive theory to guide prompting and feedback on reflection, students can become better able to select and use learning strategies (ABET 7).

This special session will start with a brief orientation to student reflection including terminology and the three dimensions of metacognitive regulation (e.g., Zimmerman, 2000) that have grounde ... (continued)
