Hands-on, Project-Based Learning: The course’s emphasis on project-based learning and experiential education allowed students to develop both technical competence plus practical problem-solving skills. By working on real-world robotics projects with diverse groups, students gained a comprehensive understanding of the design, implementation, and evaluation of robotics systems. 4. Development of Interdisciplinary Skills: The integration of diverse fields such as engineering, business, design thinking, and human-centered design ensured that students were well-rounded, capable of addressing not only technical

. Preliminary results indicate that the addition of formative assessments havehelped students better communicate the problem and solution to a wider audience in their projectdeliverables. A revised instructional model is presented, along with future evaluation plans.IntroductionAs engineering students move into the workplace, their success depends on their technical skillsand ability to communicate. Studies have shown that based on their position within anorganization, engineers may spend up to fifty percent of their time writing [1]. While writing hasbeen presumed to be part of an engineer’s job, it has not always been considered a centralcomponent of the engineering profession [2], [3]. The role of writing in engineering has inspiredseveral studies

A2020 study [2] surveyed 1,122 faculty members and found that faculty experienced increasedworkloads, lowered morale, and were provided with no semblance of work-life balance. Thesame report revealed that the pandemic not only caused faculty to experience increased stressand fatigue but also feelings of grief and anger. Another study [3] identified financial difficultiesand work-life balance as stressors leading to anxiety and depression. Many faculty also feltincreased responsibilities related to student well-being. Identified as emotional labor, facultyobligations included increased emotional support for students which varied greatly depending onfaculty gender and race [4]. During the height of
