Using Post-Assessment Reflection to Enhance Student Learning Outcomes in a Fluid Mechanics Course

Abstract

Boni Yraguen is a PhD student at Georgia Tech. Her dissertation work is in the field of combustion/thermo./fluids. She studies a novel diesel injection strategy: Ducted Fuel Injection (DFI), which is used to drastically decrease soot emissions during diesel combustion. In addition to her thesis work, Boni is passionate about engineering education. She has led and participated in various educational studies on the impact of student reflections, authentic learning assignments, ad the use of technology in the classroom. Boni hopes to pursue a career in academia with a focus on teaching and engineering education.
