Second, most approachesto communication skill development include an emphasis on either integrating writing and Page 11.625.2speaking into an introductory and/or capstone engineering course or offering a TechnicalCommunication course specifically for engineering students. Third, research in this area oftenhighlights previous attempts to incorporate or develop writing assignments using a writing-in-the-disciplines approach while relying on industry representatives and/or alumni to providediscipline-specific, genre-based knowledge.

Open-ended questions were developed toencourage students’ natural statements about their experiences.The interview protocol included open-ended questions. The open-ended questions provided themeans to explore students’ thinking about their learning. Sample questions included “How wouldyou describe your process?” The purpose for this question was to understand how studentsthought about the design of their product (ABET student outcome [c]), problem solving (ABETstudent outcome [e]), and experimentation processes (ABET student outcome [b]).

orientation of (a) technical specialization mustbe shown to be integrated into the curriculum through business and industry guidance”(p.  1)41. A widely adopted approach to reach this accreditation target has been theinclusion of industry advisory boards (IABs) in the academic work of engineeringeducation departments. IABs are “voluntary boards composed primarily of industrypractitioners who give aid and advice” (p.169)42. IABs can be involved in coursedevelopment, evaluation (including the evaluation of capstone design courses),accreditation, and fundraising. A survey of IAB participants suggests that IAB membersgenerally expect to give broad feedback about course planning and curriculum43 althoughthis varies by institution. Smaller institutions

For instance,researchers went beyond traditional coding approaches to analyzing texts and used unsupervisedlearning clustering algorithms and information retrieval techniques for text analysis [45].Researchers also used text mining and web log mining techniques to gain deeper insights onmajor discussion topics in design capstone engineering courses [36]. As such, new data sources,integrated data systems and emerging analytical techniques demand technology-enhancedlearning analytics system design emerge [46] and, once the system is in place, will enable what iscalled “multimodal learning analytics” [47].

Theemphasis is on understanding and describing not only the commonalities, but more so thevariation in the individuals’ ways of seeing and experiencing the phenomenon (Marton & Tsui,2004).The target population for this study was US engineering educators who implemented PBL in theearly years of an undergraduate engineering program – Year 1 and/or Year 2. The rationale forthis choice of context was that PBL has less of a presence in the early years of the engineeringprogram than in later years, when project-based capstone courses are widely adopted.
