Previously, the GTAs received no training inevaluating student writing. They were required at some point in their academic career to takeED 5100 College Teaching, which taught basic course management skills such as developing asyllabus, leading discussion, and interacting with students – all of which are valuable skills, butnot exactly what the lab GTAs needed to effectively evaluate writing. Because of this lack oftraining, undergraduate students often complained they received inadequate feedback on their labreports, that grading was inconsistent between GTAs, and that they learned little or nothing abouttechnical

The result of these talks has been the development of a course-wide decision framework for a thermodynamics course that allows students to solve previously unseen problems while building their expertise. This pedagogy is called Decision Based Learning, and has received tremendous student feedback and results. Students are able to solve complex problems through understanding rather

They need to “understand andcontribute in the context of market and business pressures.”4 Furthermore, entrepreneurshipskills are relevant for career success; students with these skills are expected to be better preparedto support their employers as innovators, act as managers and competent team workers4. Thisraises three essential questions: 1. What is and what means creativity and entrepreneurship in engineering contexts? 2. What are the implications for engineering education? 3. Are creativity and entrepreneurial thinking competences which can be learned by students, or are they a result of a life-long socializing process that cannot be influenced, at least not in the small period of an engineering

appear to be a similar situation in the graduate-levelliterature. Thus, for the three contexts discussed, there exists no structured follow-up todetermine whether the students continued to improve in their oral presentations skills in thefuture. Given the logistics with several thousand graduate students, it is difficult to envision alarge-scale way to gather longitudinal data on the improvement of students’ oral communicationskills. However, graduate students in engineering are expected to take responsibility for theirown professional development. They know, or are learning, that making excellent oralpresentations is essential for their career success. Thus, constructive, actionable comments arelikely to be of some value even without follow-up
