-represented minorities (URMs) inengineering education.However, despite numerous calls to diversify engineering [4], [5] and the initiation of thesepolicies and programs, there is still a lack of diversity in the proportion of engineering bachelor’sdegrees awarded to people of color that is then reflected in the profession [6]. The representationof minorities among engineering graduates is not keeping pace with the changing demographiclandscape of the general population or undergraduate population of the 21st century. Themajority of undergraduate engineering degrees in the U.S. are awarded to students who identifyas White. In 2015, White students received 65% of the engineering Bachelor’s degrees, Asianstudents over 13%, and Hispanic students nearly

These identified skills were then used as the basis for the new degree programs,with appropriate competencies strongly linked to the course and program outcomes.This important information was gathered through activities such as a technology conference inwhich 59 participants, including academic and industry partners, discussed the critical skills andcompetencies that are needed in industry and should be reflected in the new MET curriculum.Additionally, the Principal Investigator and Co-Principal Investigator have

This approach was successfully used in a senior-level course on digitalcommunications [11]. The accountability requires student reflection to provide a productivelearning experience when the students meet in a group setting. The professor can then randomlyselect or solicit a student volunteer to lead the discussion.The F2F learning is a more expensive mode of communication when compared to onlinecommunication. F2F learning requires both instructor and students to be physically together.

However, when executing an experiment, students have to carry out many taskswithin a set limited time, leaving no time for reflection [23], [31]. One method to overcome thislimitation is to prepare students conceptually through pre-labs before they attend the laboratory.Thus, pre-labs should focus on theory in addition to procedure by explaining the related theory,connecting theory to procedural steps, providing a rational for each step, and explaining what

Classroom assessment techniques also helpstudents reflect on their understanding of the course content as the course is unfolding and, in this way,promote the development of lifelong learning skills [2]. Multiple classroom assessment techniques havebeen described and collated in the classic reference “Classroom Assessment Techniques: a Handbookfor College Teachers” by T.A. Angelo and K.P.

Thisshift in writer identity creation can be compounded by the lack of practical writing help intechnical communication books (Wolfe, 2009, 2011). Wolfe (2011) notes that technicalcommunication books have shifted away from writing practice assignments to focus more onthe overall written product than on how to create the product over the years and assuming moreof a humanities bias in presentation of writing practices.
