We introducedstudents to four types of communication challenges and assigned them one of two roles: designteam member or peer-observer. In this study, we focused only on the peer-observers, particularlyon their discourse during peer-observer debriefings that occurred immediately after observingtheir classmates engaged in design activity. We limited our analysis to investigating what peer-observers discussed when given the opportunity to compare their observations with each otherduring

The concept quiz has been administered three times: onceto students from the three sections taught without E3s and twice to include the students from thefive sections taught with E3s.Results of this work show that both student exam performance and material retention improvedas a result of using proven E3s regardless of gender. Course topics where the existing teachingmethods already resulted in solid student exam performance saw the least impact on exam gradesfrom the inclusion of E3s, but student retention in these topics was improved. This wouldsuggest that faculty would see the greatest immediate gains by including E3s in those areas wheretheir students have historically had poor performance. However, for long-term materialretention

effective approaches for incorporatingsocial impacts into technical courses.ContextWe have known for a while that the time spent training to become an engineer is an importantand formative time for engineering students. Engineering education is the ‘causal relationship’that links education to the development of technology and products for consumer use andcompany profit [16, pg. 149]. To ensure students feel safe enough to learn in their programs andtruly engage in that formative process, engineering educators must communicate precisely andwith care to address the lack of positive student engagement. We refer to these communicationtechniques as rhetorical practices. Building on Perrault [10, pg. 64] who states that, “...rhetoricalknowledge is just

In the first set of resultspublished, we found a statistically-significant correlation between participation in CoPs andprogress along the transformative learning process as defined by Mezirow.

. Our profession’s lack of diversity cannot be separated from the systemicracism in our society; thus, addressing these societal ills and its impact on the engineeringprofession requires re-envisioning engineering education to be more inclusive and equitable.Creating a more diverse engineering workforce begins with increasing the diversity of engineeringstudents. Many attempts to increase the diversity of the engineering student population focus onrecruitment, but retention of students is also critical [7]. Many retention programs are grounded ina student affairs perspective and emphasize support and engagement outside of the classroom (e.g.,student affinity groups).
