Additionally authentic, situatedenvironments are believed to benefit student learning. Studies of feedback in situated projectsare uncommon and needed. This study proposes the use of episodes as a discourse analysisframework to investigate feedback in an industrially situated virtual laboratory project. Whileepisodes have been used in other disciplines, they present a new framework for engineeringeducation research.This paper focuses on a case study of feedback provided to four teams of students as part of anopen-ended senior project.

It usesepisodes as an analytical framework to examine meetings, termed coaching sessions, between afaculty member and student teams. We focus on using episodes to identify the major themes ofdiscussion and to specifically identify the role of that guidance in the students’ subsequentengagement in activities.We found that feedback in the project studied was given on the following professional skills:teamwork, communication (written and verbal), project management, impact of engineeringsolutions on the economic and societal context, symbols of legitimacy, and
