various engineering concepts.The Technical Writing and Experimental Design encourages students to be writers, readers,reviewers and experimenters by providing them feedback at multiple stages of the experimentationand writing process, as well as iterative writing through peer review and grading of multiple paperrevisions. The course was created to follow a modular format, integrating a form of research orexperimentation paired with an appropriate writing or technical communication element, tointegrate both experimentation and documentation within a single module. Each module, learningobjective, and relationship to engineering career expectation is described as follows: • Essay: A formal research paper regarding ethical factors associated with

were analyzed. These student papers formed the entirety of ayear-group cohort of students enrolled in a Mechanical Engineering Technology program at theauthors’ institution. As will be discussed in the conclusion, this analysis was part of a multi-yeareffort to measure the effect of student peer tutoring on student writing style. The cohort ofstudents whose work was measured for this paper were those who had received no peer tutoring.The nineteen works used as the source data for the examples of student writing averaged 463words in length (median = 387) and ranged between 1,595 words at the longest and 99 words atthe shortest (IQR 206 to 520).ResultsResults obtained from each of the methods described here are as follows in tables 2,3,4 and 5

or ECE, such as Control Theory, Digital Signal Processing or StructuralDynamics.The curricular goals of ESA are to further develop students’ skills and expertise in theengineering analysis process, increase their self-directed and peer learning abilities, and toconvey content that is common to ME and ECE programs. The focus on quantitative analysis ispart of a broader effort to educate students in this area. The course material is built around ahands-on project to control an inverted pendulum on a cart, a classic problem in control theory[1] which is often included in Signals and Systems and System Dynamics courses [2], [3].To this end, we developed a project using an affordable system based on an Arduino-likeplatform, the Balboa 32U4

offers more opportunities for innovative impact. Each increase in Innovative Impact requires more extensive research, design, and review in the innovative outcome. In IBL, students are encouraged to develop their learning and innovative solutions so they contain high levels of knowledge development (DoK-3 and DoK-4) and high levels of impact (Academia and Society levels).Tokenized Learning SystemThe tokenized system allows students to log, track, and provide evidence of their individual self-defined learning goals easily and efficiently to all course instructors involved. The token flowprocess also incorporates anonymous peer/instructor review as well, giving studentsresponsibility and experience in providing/receiving

material by the end of the course, to show cumulativeknowledge, or to test on a final unit of material. Students also noted that forming an epic finalethat covers all of the course material or relates and probes the technical content deeply may be achallenge (yes, students, it is!). One student expressed concern that with the group nature ofsome of the work, students may ‘ride the coattails’ of classmates. However, that student noted,and the instructors have observed, that this has not happened during our experiences. The peer-accountability, the quick pace, the interesting topics, and the buzz and excitement in the roomhave thus far carried along even the least motivated students.Ultimately, one student astutely put it this way:I think this model
