allowed forclear product performance goals and a focus on technical problem solving. As Summer noted: I mean in order to innovate something new I feel like you have to have some type of goal in mind, I mean there has to be a purpose to everything to meet at least. Otherwise it’s not like a solution to anything, and I think that engineers try to solve problems usually. And if you don’t have a goal in mind why are you doing the project, you know?... And then also to see if it’s an actual possible thing we can do. I mean I think goals pretty much go hand in hand with innovation.While these students more thoroughly experienced the process of innovation, and to a lesserextent other-oriented elements of innovation

Students agreed that writing assignments in bothcourses included writing for an audience with a purpose in mind, employing rhetorical appeals(logos, pathos, and ethos), and using evidence as support. Many of the distinctions that studentsnoted emphasized differences in how these elements were employed. For example, studentsnoted the difference between using thesis statements in research papers and using hypotheses inlab reports to define the genre’s purpose.
