engineering technology programs,collaborating faculty developed a linked assignment that they offered over two years ofinstruction.MethodThe students involved in this study were enrolled in sections of a general educationchemistry course and an upper-level technical writing course. Faculty designed a linkedassignment consisting of two face-to-face meetings (if enough time was available in thesemester), asynchronous virtual meetings, shared file functions, and a large-grouppresentation. The combined classes were under thirty students in number, most of whommajored in professional pilot, aviation maintenance, engineering technology ortechnology management programs.Student teams of maximum five participants were composed of two chemistry studentsand two
