Communicationskills are critically important for engineers. Strong writing skills empower engineers to makevisible the complexities of their work to a wide range of audiences. The Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology [1] identifies “the ability to communicate effectively” as a keystudent learning outcome [2].
