One underutilized path forstudents to strengthen those skills is the required sequence of laboratory courses, where studentswrite reports that are evaluated by graduate teaching assistants (GTAs), many of whom speakEnglish as a second language. Historically, engineering GTAs have not been trained informative assessment techniques to help

It has beenshown to be an effective means of educating students in traditional subjects as well asproviding the opportunity for broader professional preparation and personal growth thatare vital to the engineers of tomorrow. Research shows that the fears of faculty membersthat they have to compromise rigor for service-learning are not valid. Done correctly,service-learning can enhance learning of traditional content.Service-learning also has the potential to change the views of our students aboutengineering.
