The teaching component involved development and delivery of acourse on Embedded Systems Design for engineering students. As a result, graduating studentsgained current skills needed by industry and were better prepared for the workforce.

,institution-specific requirements can have a dominating impact on the depth/breadth balance andhow they are attained. As a primary example, many large engineering schools were forced tomake challenging, required curricular alterations when state legislatures required a reduction ofhours while maintaining ABET engineering hours for accreditation. These changes necessitatedreduction of the requirements for fundamental science and traditional engineering courses fromother departments to make room for courses with heavy design content, societal context, andintegrated communication skills.Due to these changes, the curriculum has become increasingly rigid, which limits students’opportunities to deeply explore technical content. To ensure depth, many

How Metacognition Supports SDLStudies show there is a gap between what graduating engineers can do and what employers want.Engineers are primarily hired and rewarded for solving ill-structured problems [8], [9]. Ill-structured problems are context and content dependent [10] and require the ability to generate avariety of novel solutions (no single solution is necessarily right or wrong) and to decide whichsolution is the best for the given problem in the given context [11]. Thus, engineers must havethe metacognitive skills and be able to self-direct their problem solving activities to negotiate theproblems they encounter in practice.In a prior paper [12], we reported on data from alumni of IRE who participated in our study anddescribed how

These standardized tests are designed tobe valid and reliable research instruments. Although they typically use multiple-choice questions,the distractors for the questions are convincing to students who do not have a strong conceptualknowledge; thus, despite being multiple-choice questionnaires that take 1-2 minutes per question,concept inventories can assess student working knowledge. Some analyses of concept inventorieshave found possible issues with validity [37]; with that said, analysis of this depth is not evenpossible for the FE without cooperation from NCEES.If a program were to have problems with graduates having
