Nowadays, engineering students arepursuing careers in more diversified areas that possess fluid work structures, and that requireengineers that are quick to adapt to change and effective at facilitating multidisciplinarycollaborations [3], [5], [10]. In this context, communication and teamwork are critical to thesuccess of early career engineers; these capabilities are a fundamental aspect of career growthand an integral trait of leadership [4], [10]–[12]. The ability to communicate effectively, todemonstrate teaming skills, and to work in dynamic teams is increasingly important, and must beconsidered a priority in engineering programs as they try to better prepare students for

Thus, critical thinking is a very important, though infrequently taught,aspect of engineering problem solving [1], and is important to the success of student’s futureengineering careers [2,3,4].

Another idea that I had gleaned from conversationswith students was that they didn’t remember much from their computer science Introduction toComputing courses because it seemed impractical. “Hello, world” and other programs they hadbeen asked to write were not related to what they saw as their future career. My goal, therefore,was to demonstrate relevance to my students. Thus, each problem they were asked to solveneeded to relate to chemical engineering. This was made more challenging by the fact that thestudents had very limited knowledge of what chemical engineering was at the time they weretaking this course.
