resistance may be student perceptionof writing as an audience-driven performance rather than perceiving writing as part of criticalthinking and creation of social action4. In data- and content-focused fields and disciplines, suchas those in STEM, it is difficult to integrate different forms and genres of writing into upper-levelundergraduate courses due to time constraints and concerns about coverage. Writing is seen as aseparate intellectual process because there are a limited number of courses taken as corerequirements from Humanities and Social Sciences, and many courses and writing programs donot demonstrate overt connections to STEM epistemologies. Although practicing STEM facultystress the importance of writing as part of their own careers

The project is the basis for the integration ofengineering courses that were part of the SUCCEEd pilot that took place in the Fall of 2014.Integration is used as tool to reinforce learning and promote student success. An integration ofsubjects and reiteration of theories, prediction, practice, testing, optimization, assessment, anddissemination of information in a collaborative environment has been supported in the literatureas a better way to learn engineering than the traditional, segregation by topic approach.

Emig describes the simple act ofreading one’s own writing as a valuable learning moment in which “information from the pro-cess is immediately and visibly available as that portion of the product already written.” Review-ing a set of writings collected over time, then, creates an opportunity to extend the learning pro-cess. Both instructors and students benefit from the act of collecting artifacts because they repre-sent the changes and growth that accompany learning.

While this may appear like a common imageprocessing tool, it’s quite different in that the tool only performs the basic methods studied inthe course.
