, a number of difficulties become evident. Enrollment does not supportadding a new course in drives, even as a special topics subject. Faculty and student resources for such acourse, particularly time, are already committed. Such a course may be too specialized for mostundergraduate curricula anyway. Therefore, this paper will not address developing a new course inelectronic drive systems. For those wishing to do so, this author can provide the name and location ofseveral who have developed successful electronic motor drives courses, at both undergraduate andgraduate levels. Nonetheless, within an existing curriculum that contains an electromechanical energy conversioncourse, a practical opportunity to incorporate electronic drives

. In orderfor students to engage in deep conceptual learning, they need to address questions such as whichconcepts apply, why certain equations are used, how and why they were derived, and how theseequations and concepts relate to each other. However, significantly less emphasis is placed onthese topics throughout a traditional undergraduate Electrical Engineering curriculum. Exploringand reflecting on these questions throughout the curriculum will help students create conceptualnarrative arcs that are connected, giving them a more holistic view of Electrical Engineering andcreating more capable engineers.FrameworkThe framework proposed here contains three parts to help facilitate the development ofconnected narrative arcs: definition, initial

This trend shows a methodical progression within thedepartment, which is designed to develop foundational communication skills, and then put thoseskills into practice. A possible area for improvement within the curriculum is identifying courselinkages and then intentionally scaffolding them through synchronized grading rubrics. Thiswould serve to improve long-term retention by building upon specifically assessed technicalcommunication skills. Continued improvement of grading rubrics and introduction of a technicalcommunication course could also serve to enhance student technical communication skills.ReferencesABET 2020
