For this project, students completed a pre-survey about their to-date presentationexperiences and overall public-speaking confidence followed by an interactive workshop on thetheatre-based exercises mentioned above. They then completed a post-workshop survey on thesesame concepts before giving their first presentation of the semester in a technical-communicationcourse. Significantly, the workshop was conducted by a theatre professor (one of the currentpaper’s authors) who began his career with an electrical-engineering degree and several years ofexperience in industry.

This approach promotes the linking of concepts and hands-on experienceduring the learning process which helps students better remember11, 12 what they learn. Moreover,if the experience utilizes the same tools used by engineers, it can be useful for students whenentering the job market or pursuing higher education. A number of curricula have been proposedto integrate these aspects,13 for example those from Project Lead The Way (PLTW).15NGSS defines the three core ideas of engineering design14 as: (1) Definition of the problem, (2)design of solutions to the problem and (3) optimization of the solution.

Another though, is that differentapproaches to teaching move students to different levels within the taxonomy. A groupdiscussion is not an effective way to convey basic knowledge of a subject, just as lecture is not avery good way to drive synthesis.Much has been written about the use of computers as one such element of an enriched learningenvironment.

Second, Mastering grading is only granular in the senseof how many attempts a student has taken—not in reference to the quality of their work leadingup to submission of their answer. In the absence of any evidence of problem-solving process, wedecided to remove the Mastering data from the analysis completed here because it is qualitativelydifferent (i.e., no meaningful partial credit) than the other pieces of graded work in the analysis.Students also completed a small project (5% of their final grade) on a topic of their choice, andthey earned class credit (up to
