  • Abstract
    This special session will provide participants with the opportunity to: (1) gain a deeper understanding of the nature, significance, and complexities associated with the use of reflection in engineering education, (2) engage with other engineering educators around the issues and challenges of reflection, (3) become familiar with a framework for characterizing reflection and identifying reflection activities, and (4) work with other engineering educators to design/develop reflection activities that may be appropriate to specific educational contexts.
