-functional skills such as technicalwriting and communication (TWC) in addition to the engineering-specific knowledge gained inan undergraduate education. Industry constituents expect engineering graduates to communicatetechnical content efficiently and effectively to disseminate technical information.Specifically, the aviation industry requires a considerable amount of documentation to supportthe design, development, maintenance, and safety of operations; as such, skill in technicalwriting is required to accomplish these activities effectively. However, in traditional, humanities-based writing courses, (which are often the main source of writing preparation for engineeringstudents) the focus of such writing courses is not on technical writing

This study is part of an NSF grant that aims tosupport student engagement in undergraduate engineering education to be equitable andinclusive. Oftentimes, these engineering courses can provide roadblocks to students due to theirmotivation orientation, their beliefs in their ability to do well in the course, and the self-regulatedlearning (or lack thereof) utilized within the classroom. To address the external factors thatimpact SRL, the course instructor implemented multiple attempt testing (MAT).

We conclude with a discussion of implications for instructional practice.IntroductionVariability—the phenomenon of non-identical values—is core to modern science. The movebeyond calculating averages to the study of real variation is one of the most important scientificdevelopments of the 19th century [1]. Ernst Mayr [2] positions variability as fundamental tounderstanding evolution through “population thinking.” Statistics as a discipline exists in largepart to develop techniques to study variability

While some engineering programs embed one stand-alone ethicscourse within a curriculum, other programs embed ethics modules across a few courses within acurriculum. Very few engineering programs weave engineering ethics across a four-yearundergraduate curriculum in a concerted and developmental way [7]. Engineering ethics taughtin stand-alone courses is usually offered within the first two years of study [4].
