as fundamentally central to the problem-solving work of engineers (Matusovichet al., 2012; Poe et al., 2010; Wolfe, 2009). Second, when communication skills are disjointed fromtechnical content, there is often a void of context-specific communication discourse (Paretti et al.,2014), such as training mining engineering students to effectively communicate geotechnical riskswith the public (e.g., Conrad, 2009; Hadjigeorgiou, 2020; Noppé, 2014; Stewart & Lewis, 2017).In addition to these documented limitations of stand-alone technical communication courses, at leastthree major influences have contributed to an overall shift in engineering education towardembedding communication skills into core engineering curriculum. First, the ABET
Student LearningOutcomesInterpersonal and intercultural communication concepts and principles are at the heart of otherforms of professionally valued communication, including written and oral communication,teamwork, and communicating with diverse audiences (Donnel, Aller, Alley, & Kedrowicz,2011; Woodin, Carter, & Fletcher, 2010). However, these communication-rooted concepts andprinciples are rarely expressly taught in engineering education (Kedrowicz & Nelson, 2007),where teamwork training tends to instead focus on process, organizational, and assessmentelements such as team contracts and peer-assessment (Chowdhry & Murzi, 2019). In suchsettings, engineering student teams are often told to create a team contract that

Culture influences howwe see the world, how we see the community that we live in, and how we communicate witheach other. Being a part of a culture influences our learning, remembering, talking and behav-ing. Culture shapes mind, it provides us with the tool kit by which we construct not only ourworld but our very construction of ourselves and our powers. We cannot understand mental ac-tivity unless we consider the

“substantialdifferences in the use of self-explanation” between the two groups (Litzinger et al., 2010, p.337). In another study, a small sample of students solving engineering statics problems showedan improved understanding of the problems (measured by verbal and written protocols) after anintervention featuring metacognitive instruction (Steif, Lobue, & Kara, 2010). And,metacognitive instruction has shown student gains in problem solving and design skills in severalother studies (Hanson & Brophy, 2009; Koretsky & Kelly, 2011; Krause, Kelly, & Baker, 2012;Newell, 2004; Pappas, 2009; Zheng, Shih, & Mo, 2009; Zheng & Yin, 2012).Why are Metacognition and Life- Long Learning Important in the EngineeringWorkplace?Several studies have shown
