help them see how projects undertaken in the course labscomplement and build on themes addressed in the weekly lectures. In what follows I elaborate how I developed the new patent assignment for a pilotSummer semester version of the course in 2019 and how it was later implemented in the maincourse in the Fall 2019 semester. I also explain how students at once welcomed and resistedworking with the SDGs and the effects that reorienting the patent assignment around them hadon their perception of the course’s value. I conclude that both qualitative and quantitative data instudent course evaluations suggest that reorienting course lectures and assignments around theSDGs played an important role in increasing students’ appreciation of the

In 2019, 9,930 university students wereengaged across 26 universities in Australia and New Zealand. This represents between 60-80%of all incoming first year engineering students in accredited engineering programs across the twocountries.

is that these resources are helping students learn to write andpresent as engineers and scientists in design courses, laboratory courses, and professionaldevelopment workshops across the United States. From September 2019 through April 2020,these resources received more than 39,000 film views.Introduction From grade school through first-year composition, engineering students take severalcourses on general writing. Although valuable, these courses by themselves do not sufficientlyprepare students for the challenges of writing as an engineer. The reason is that engineeringwriting is significantly different from general writing. For one thing, the content of engineeringdocuments is, on the whole, both more specific and more complex than

LGBTQIA+ CommunityThroughout this paper, we reference the term “LGBTQIA+,” which is an umbrella acronym usedto describe any person who does not identify with heterosexual and cisgender norms (Gold,2019). Recent research on the LGBTQIA+ student experience shows a growing interest on thistopic, both within and outside of the field of engineering education (Lange et al., 2019). Withinthis encouraging trend, the disciplines that have placed the greatest sense of urgency onunderstanding this community’s experiences appear to have been higher education, psychology,and queer and gender studies. Research from these fields have shown that LGBTQIA+ studentsexperience heightened levels of verbal and physical violence, harassment, and discrimination. Asa

For the study presented in this paper,students’ visual communication skills were assessed by comparing visual displays submittedearly in the term with those submitted at the end of the term.The study population used for this paper includes 71 students who have enrolled in andcompleted the course, The Way Things Work, in 2017, 2018, and 2019. Class enrollment by yearand gender are given in Table 1. Note that in 2017 enrollment was not limited but in 2018 and2019 enrollment was limited to 16 students and 24 students, respectively.
