Also, we hypothesized that engagement would be more critical forwomen than men for persisting in the Engineering program. 5DesignParticipants

Through a grant from the Kern Family Foundation, four universities (Baylor,Dayton, Detroit Mercy and Villanova) partnered on such a study as a step toward developingcurriculum that prepares undergraduate engineers to be more effective innovators andintrapreneurs in corporations.

Nonetheless, at Northwestern University, with support from the Vanderbilt-Northwestern-Texas- Harvard/MIT (VaNTH) Engineering Research Center, we have piloted a way to integrate team-based writing instruction into a junior course on neural systems physiology, targeting specific aspects of writing with which juniors seem to have difficulty. This article describes how writing was added to the course without diminishing the emphasis on content, plus the theory that underlies this instructional intervention. Also discussed are the results of a formal assessment to measure student gains in collaborative writing and implications for future interventions in this and other engineering courses.ABET EC2000
