other western countries. Curriculum reformis recommended to improve recruitment and retention of students from all of these groups too.What is an inclusive curriculum?Early approaches to teaching diverse students aimed to ensure that ‘different’ students wereincluded, as opposed to excluded, in lectures and laboratories, giving rise to the term ‘inclusive’teaching. Faculty were urged to examine their teaching practices and to ensure that in theassumptions they made about students’ backgrounds, in the examples and metaphors they used,and in the attention they gave to individual students, they were not excluding those students whocame from cultures which differed from the dominant culture represented in the class (usuallyyoung, white and male

process, butoftentimes engineering technology students have few opportunities to develop their skills in thisarea as they matriculate through their chosen degree program. Many programs require only oneor two writing courses outside of the major. In addition, courses that require communication inthe form of laboratory reports often provide minimal feedback regarding appropriate writingstyle, the effective support of results with analysis, and maintaining efficiency in writing.In this paper, a new approach is presented that unburdens some of the responsibility from theinstructor to peer tutors outside of the engineering technology major who are skilled writers.Although this effort has been ongoing, with engineering technology students required to

surveying students requires an extensive number oflaboratories (indoor and outdoor). Outdoor laboratories are used to develop skills with surveyinginstruments, teach field techniques, and reinforce concepts taught in lectures. Instructors use aconsiderable portion of the allotted time to provide an overview of the lab, which reduces thetime students can spend in the field conducting the lab. Due to the spatial nature of the tasks, it isoften difficult for students to visualize the steps to complete the labs. As a result, students areoften underprepared for the activities. In outdoor labs students move from one location toanother to collect data related to each task. During the lab students frequently have questions, butit is difficult for the

Various benefits can be ascribed to group collaboration. The students working as agroup usually achieve better results than those working individually, because groupdiscussion helps reinforce concepts qualitatively and/or quantitatively. In addition, sincegroup members coordinate their activities, they achieve better results and acquire a widerknowledge than those working individually. Multiple perspectives allow: ≠ Less knowledgeable group members to learn from more knowledgeable ones. ≠ More emphasis on the individual member

These one-day laboratory experiences and multi-day design project werenot designed with EML in mind, however, as the university incorporates EML into itscurriculum, how well these labs already incorporate these principles is of interest. Therefore, thispaper will investigate: How much EML is already incorporated into the laboratory and designproject curriculum and which areas of EML do each exploration lack? To investigate this task,each lab was coded against an EML curriculum objective matrix that was developed to designand evaluate EML curriculum. This facilitated quantification as to how well each
