Finally, a recent study offaculty beliefs and practices around teaching teamwork and communication suggests that facultyoften rely on abstract or ad hoc approaches to teamwork, treat teamwork as something studentssimply learn “by doing,” and often avoid specific instruction in this critical skill3.Despite these gaps in teaching teamwork, the skill itself consistently emerges among the topskills requested by employers, and team issues surface repeatedly in design courses wheninstructors describe their teaching

Over50% of women graduates with professional engineering degrees leave the field within 5 years [8],and, in some part, narrow job focus, lack of creativity, and minimal societal impact of theprofession have been cited as deterrents for recruitment and retention of young people in theengineering [9,10].

The circuit used during the laboratory has an inherent discrepancy if a student tries todirectly measure resistance across each of the three resistors. Two of the resistors are in parallel,so when measurements are taken, both resistors will exhibit an identical value. (See Figure 1,resistors R2 and R3.) However, the two resistors

Moreover, it later became apparent that due to thedemanding nature of this course, students are often stressed and this stress can lead tointerpersonal conflicts between team members. It was thus argued that students could benefitfrom supplementary COM instruction in conflict negotiation and resolution. By inviting a COMinstructor into the senior design course, COM support could be deeply embedded in the students'capstone experience, providing timely instruction just before graduation.

The role of the university is to teach, and students are supposed to learn.Upon graduation, students begin working, where they are supposed to perform their jobs in waysthat help their organizations meet business goals.Such silos mean that academics often work in academic circles.

To address this problem, we can turn to competency-based education (CBE)[8], [13]. CBE is not a new pedagogical concept. It has a relatively long history in K-12education and higher education [14], [15]. According to Geravis, 2016, CBE can trace its originsin US education back to the Morill Land-Acts of 1862 and the notion of applied education.CBE focuses on having students demonstrate the mastery and application of knowledge andskills beyond the confines of the classroom (i.e., in the real world). CBE is also known asoutcomes or problem-based learning [16]. The goal of CBE is to better balance the expectationsand
