in response to industry needs,written and oral communication has been identified as a critical area for undergraduateengineers, and accreditation boards and universities recognize the need to continue developingcurricula that prepares students for a profession filled with communication opportunities [13],[36]–[38]. To address this challenge many universities are working to strengthen engineeringstudents’ communication knowledge and skills through institution-wide initiatives (e.g. [39]),departmental-wide pedagogical shifts (e.g. [40]), and experimental class-specific interventionsby instructors.The majority of oral communication interventions described in the literature primarily aim toinstill conceptions of professionalism [41], guiding
