The more likely the untrainedaudience is able to perceive intended pathway, the more likely the resume is to be consideredstrong by our BME competency model. A possible teaching implication of this concept is peer-reviewed resume writing exercises for freshman engineering students. Teaching them theimportance of applying to specific positions with resumes clearly and deliberately designed forthat position, and the use of peer review for determining clarity and a sense of

The College ofEngineering at an urban research university is acutely aware of the increased need for retentionprograms in engineering colleges across the US. To respond to this need, a unique mentorshipprogram, the LMP, was established as one of the main components of an Engineering LearningCommunity (ELC) for first-year engineering students. Students self-select into the ELC programand, upon being registered, are assigned a peer mentor. The peer mentors are sophomorethrough senior-level undergraduate engineering students in the college who hold looselystructured meetings with the mentee students.

A call forpapers was distributed which students responded to by submitting a short abstract. The abstractswere ‘accepted’ and the students then had to write a full technical paper. A double-blind peerreview was performed within the class to include critical analysis practice for students.

Thetechnical communications course was changed to a rotating face-to-face model, for which lecturevideos and assigned activities were performed on out-of-class days and in-class days were reservedfor workshops. Workshops replaced the traditional guided learning activity approach with activelearning in a think-pair-share format. Students were given strong and weak examples of writing tobe able to give feedback to their peers and improve their own writing prior to submission. Studentsworked on improving their formal written assignments, and therefore improved their capacity fortechnical writing, during class rather than submitting their first writing
