graduates do notface a critical thinking “skills gap,” but a “context gap” upon entry to the workplace due to thesituatedness of engineering work and communication practices. While it may not be possible within theundergraduate education context to fully replicate the contexts graduates will face in practice, coursesdesigned with a focus on engineering judgment and critical thinking as enacted through writing processesmay adequately simulate aspects of engineering work contexts in ways that require students to strengthentheir critical thinking skills. Furthermore, the literature suggests that unstructured, team-based projectswith extensive communication requirements such as a written report, oral presentation, or proposal maypermit greater student
