Work in Progress: Thematic Analysis of Engineering Students’ Technical WritingAbstractThis study describes the process of thematic analysis within the context of teaching and learningtechnical writing in a materials testing laboratory course. This process involves searchingstudents’ lab reports for their writing mistakes and sorting the relevant extracts into categoriesand identifying themes. Characterization and theme identification are made by analyzingprevious semesters’ reports for a total of 140 lab reports and pre-defining the themes for futureapplications. Observations may be made at each semester that do not fit into any of the pre-defined categories. For this reason, the themes will grow over the course

The number of assessments by topic are shown in Table 1. A full breakdown of thegraded requirements for the previous and new versions of the course are shown in Table 2.Previous studies indicated out-of-class assignments increased student engagement with thematerial more than in-class exercises [18]. Therefore, the reading quizzes in the previous versionof the course were replaced with out-of-class homework assignments focused on both problemsolving and self-learning.

The course features a virtual lecture each week and tenseparate hands-on activities that required different modes of instruction and involved differentsocial distancing protocols.
