Which of these sounds the most appealing regarding group work/projects

• Having new groups each time

• Keeping the same group for a unit (approximately 1 quarter)

• Keeping the same group for an entire semester

Also regarding groups...what is your preference?

• Groups are randomly made.

• Alternate between the methods (if groups change).

What best describes how you currently feel about engineering.

• It is definitely the field I want to go in to.

• Not for sure yet, but it is one of my top choices past high school

• Somewhat interested but probably going into something else.

• Definitly NOT going into engineering.

• I have no idea what I'm doing beyond high school and I wish adults would quit asking.

My favorite class/subject in school is...

What would you like to tell me about yourself? This can be anything! The better I know my students the more I can adapt my teaching/class to their needs and interests.

What do you feel is your greatest strengths are to bring to a group? (Examples: organization, leadership, keeping everyone on target, creativity, crunching numbers, following instructions, research, asking good questions, ....)

Pick 1: 1) Draw something you can't believe doesn't exist yet
