Student reflections can be grouped into two broad categories: experiences and skills as shown in Figure 1 with their respective proportions. There were 13 keywords related to experiences that referred to situations that occurred during the project, opinions on how the project was held, anecdotes and future aspirations. On average 3.30 experiences were mentioned by all the students per reflection (S.D. = 1.61). The experiences with the highest proportions were application (77%), true life (48%), and satisfaction (43%). Table 1 provides samples from student reflections assigned to the three experience related keywords with the highest proportions. The results for the two-proportion test showed a significant difference in the keyword "future" (p-value=0.004). The proportion of reflections that contained this keyword for the case study group was 45% compared to 14% of reflections in service industry project as shown in Table 3. Another significant finding was for the keyword "professional communication" (p-value=0.01). For this keyword the proportion of reflections that contained this keyword was 0% in the case study group, compared to 25% of reflections in service industry project group. All the other experience related keywords had p-values above 0.01 suggesting that there is no evidence to state that experiences are not equally mentioned between projects in the Work Systems Design course.
In the second category, 9 different skills were identified throughout the reflections. These keywords relate to how students develop different skills and how they were applied during the project. In this category an average 1.09 skills per reflection (S.D. = 0.94) were identified. Figure 1 shows the proportion of times each skill was mentioned in the reflections analyzed. The skills with the highest proportion were communication (32%), identification and problem solving (30%), and awareness (18%). This last skill is of sum importance since it is an acquired skill that implies that students will put into practice what they have learned. Table 2 provides samples from student reflections assigned to the three skill related keywords with the highest proportions.
The results for the two proportion test show that all the skills obtained a p-value above 0.01 suggesting that we cannot reject the null hypothesis. Therefore we can state that there is no evidence to state that experiences and skills are not equally mentioned between projects evaluated
