Improving Student Confidence through Metacognative Learning
Publication: Journal of Professional Issues in Engineering Education and Practice
Volume 128, Issue 4
Abstract
This is a continuing series of quarterly articles on lessons learned and best practices in civil engineering education. The intent of the series is to reinforce good practices, describe new or developing practices, and provide a forum for what works well and what does not. It is hoped that this series will be an important quarterly read for all civil engineering educators and all those interested in what’s going on in civil engineering education today. Writers and topics will vary from issue to issue. Contact the Associate Editor, Mark Evans, at [email protected] if you wish to contribute to an upcoming issue.
