Task For each of the following items develop a plan that wil

Task:

For each of the following items

develop a plan that will indicate:

a. Where would a “world-class” engineering student want to be on each item

b. Where you are currently on each item

c.What you need to do to move from where you are to where you would need to be to become a“world-class” engineering student.

By analyzing a. and b. you will be able to answer c., which will tell you what your processto success is!

Keep in mind that your report will describe your process to success.

Goal Setting

a. Setting your goal(s), i.e., major, time to graduation, GPA
• What do you want to achieve through your engineering education (major, time tograduation, GPA, etc.) and beyond

Strengthening and clarifying your commitment to your goal(s)

Clarifying what success in engineering study will do to enhance the quality of your life (rewards, benefits, opportunities, payoffs, etc)

Understanding the essence of engineering (be able to articulate an answer to the question “What is engineering?)

Being aware of past engineering achievements, current opportunities (academic disciplines, job functions, industry sectors) and future directions.

Setting up a \"Road Map\"—a plan to guide you over the next years to graduation

• A term-by-term academic plan, outlining what courses you plan to take to graduation d. Understanding the essence of engineering

• Be able to articulate an answer to the question “What is engineering?\"

Community building

Building relationships, and making effective use of your peers

Get to know students in your classes/program/department

Build productive relationships for college and beyond

Participating in co-curricular activities

• Join and actively participate in student organizations including engineering related

student organizations (ASCE, ASME, IEEE, etc.)

Academic development

a.Navigating the university system, resources and academic advising

b.Understanding teaching styles and learning styles and how to make the teaching/learning process work for you.

Personal development

Enhancing your self-awareness and improving your skills to practice academic success strategies

Understand and practice the concept of “metacognition” to improve your learning process by observing your learning process, feeding back to yourself what you observed, and making changes based on that feedback.

Understand the principles of teamwork and leadership and develop skills to be both an effective team member and also an effective team leader

Understand and respect differences in personality types, ethnicity and gender

Outlining what attitudes and behaviors you need to change/add to be successful

Change your attitudes to those appropriate to success in math/science/engineering coursework. Among those that are candidates for change are:

o Low self-confidence or overconfidence
o Reluctance to seek help
o Resistance to change, grow, develop, improve
o Tendency to procrastinate
o Avoidance behavior (avoid difficult or unpleasant tasks) o Reluctance to study with other students
o Negative view toward authority figures
o Unprepared to deal with inevitable adversity
o Other negative attitudes identified by you

Change your behaviors to those appropriate to success in math/science/ engineering coursework to include at least:

o Devoting adequate time to studying
o Adopting the principle that you master the material presented in one class before

the next class comes
o Make effective use of your peers through sharing information and group study
o Make effective use of your professors both inside and outside of the classroom o Prepare for lectures by reading ahead, attempting a few problems, formulating a

few questions
o Other behaviors identified by you

c. Managing time and tasks

Understand and make effective use of time management and priority management

Do a good job of managing various aspects of your personal life including interactions

with family and friends, personal finances, outside work, and commuting.

Engaging in good health and wellness practices including management of stress

Manage stress through stress-reduction methods

Understand the benefits and implement good health and wellness practices

Developing a high sense of personal and professional integrity and ethical behavior

Understand professional ethical codes related to your major

Be able to identify academic dishonest behavior and how to avoid such behavior

Managing your time and energy. effectively- daily and weekly schedules.

Please complete assignment within five(5)to six(6) pages-(1.5 line spacing).

Solution

For the above approch the every individual process to become a successful engineering student

and the project provieds a view on which a student can review on their carrer as as engineering student. They are as follows :

Individual accountability for success as an engineering student . Setting the goal of graduating with an engineering degree and developing a plan to achieve the goal will result in more efficient students, potentially reducing the time to graduation, and reduce the number of students who “drift aimlessly” through a curriculum Students will perform better in all courses . The skills students develop to be an effective engineering students are the same skills they need in their later career . Learning to apply general student development topics from the course to their personal development plan The focus of the presented approach is to improve student success and retention rates and assessment data is presented in the Results section. Although data is not yet available, it would not be surprising if this approach shows improvement in the time to graduation for engineering students as well because of the aforementioned benefits.
