It was intended that these class periods, combined with three significantopportunities for detailed feedback, provided the tools to foster the desire for continuousimprovement in technical communication skills (towards ABET Criterion 3, outcome g.)Three faculty members co-taught three sections of this course, rotating sections every

needs of the technical workforce requireengineering students to gain both disciplinary depth and interdisciplinary and interpersonal skillsto ready themselves for the evolving career landscape. Specifically, engineering students areexpected to build relevant skills through experiential learning opportunities [1]. However, formost high school students considering engineering in college, their preparation is typicallyadvanced placement courses in science and mathematics. Courses alone don’t meet theincreasing national demand to better prepare high school students for careers in technology andmanufacturing [2]. To bridge this gap, high school students may pursue the skills and qualitiesexpected of them in a university setting, which will enable

traditional exclusively technical emphasis ofengineering education may make it particularly susceptible to this kind of disengagement [5].Cech [12] identifies three ideological pillars associated with engineering culture that contributeto a behavior of disengagement to social concerns. These are 1. Technical/social dualism, definedas engineers' cognitive division of social and technical skills and their undervaluation of socialskills, including those related to public welfare, 2. Meritocratic ideology, where success isbelieved to be a result of individual talent and where the way things are done is not usuallyquestioned and 3. Depoliticization, the idea that social and political issues can and should beseparated from engineering work because they may

there is no mention of distinctions between written, oralor visual communication skills [2]. In contrast, outcome (f) for engineering technology programsrequires “an ability to apply written, oral, and graphical communication in both technical andnon-technical environments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature”[2]. This trend is also evident in the literature for general higher education standards. The 2002report published by the Association of American Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) stated theneed for learners to “effectively communicate orally, visually, in writing, and in a secondlanguage” [3].

, adesign situation calling for an engineering solution requires engineers to recognize not onlytechnical also non-technical goals and constraints and the interactions between the variables witha broad range of perspectives. However, examining P-12 engineering design cognitive processes,multiple studies have indicated a lack of students’ cognitive effort to analyze a given designscenario and to structure and formulate a design problem in any effective or efficient ways. Also,students tend to fail in identifying multiple, conflicting goals and constraints in a given designscenario. In the meantime, the characteristics of entrepreneurial engineers’ thinking and actions(Kriewall & Mekemson, 2010) imply the possibility of improving P-12 students
