may enter introductory engineering courses able to explain phenomena, but notnecessarily able to apply that knowledge of scientific phenomena to engineering design andinnovation. Additionally, students must be aware of the transition so that they do not becomefrustrated from the different orientation of instruction in their engineering science classes. Theyneed to remain open-minded and comfortable with the potential advantage of achievingconceptual change about the nature of engineering. By frequently utilizing multimodal Page 22.451.12expression of student mental models, this transition can be monitored.The integrated, contextualized, and
can be relied upon. This requires moving students beyondrecording their calculations and numbers to presenting narratives that readers can understand andbelieve. Morrow [10], writing about data literacy, indicates “our minds do better with storiesthan with data. We need to empower people to share stories and communicate the results,analyses and insight found in the data” (pp. 47-48). However, these stories will need to be told toa range of audiences. This range of audiences is broadening as the practice of engineering ismoving increasingly toward interdisciplinary projects and global work and work teams [11],[12].The adage to know what you write can be perceived in two ways when examining writing inprobability and statistics. First, students
engineering teams and engineering students. Withthis in mind, the recommendations from our study can be implemented and studied inengineering classes that include projects. Researchers will want to investigate the followingquestions: 1. How can virtual teams integrate social interactions into a meeting structure to foster trust between team members? Is it best to include time for social interactions before, during, or after discussing project details? How do virtual teams establish comfortable environments for team members to have personal conversations? 2. What planning documents do engineering students find helpful for effective communication for establishing clear expectations and building trust? 3. What meeting
