One perspectivethat is currently missing is that of graduate students who often have a large amount of contactwith undergraduate students in their roles as teaching assistants and sessional instructors. Thispaper presents graduate student (n = 36) perceptions on empathy as a professional skill and as apedagogical instructional area captured in a survey distributed to current graduate students(professional and

Teamwork itself is a practical skill for engineers, and it teaches many othertangible skills such as leadership, conflict resolution, and communication through itsimplementation [2,5,9,10]. Lab reports are commonly used in engineering education to teach avariety of skills, including but not limited to, technical writing, communication, time and projectmanagement, and teamwork.
