Session Description

This session aimed at faculty engaged in assigning and supporting students in solving complex problems while attending to students’ affect, or emotions and feelings, and their development of engineering identity. This special session will discuss how emotions emerge during engineering projects and the solving of complex problems and provide instructors with a survey tool to measure and document the emotions that students experience while solving problems. Participants will understand ways that students can regulate or reframe negative emotions experienced during problem-solving and design and how ... (continued)
