A lecture focusing on effective oral presentation techniques was presented to demonstrate effective oral presentations. Students presented their IOP in the class. Writing Assignments: Writing assignments (WAs) were chosen as an assessment method to demonstrate students’ improvements in technical writing. Individual writing assignments included topics ranging from “Explain how something works” to “Reflect on your speaking skills”. Specific content was not as important as demonstrating mastery of writing skills. For example, the first writing

However, this is not explicit in the concept. In fact, Andrade and Tomblinnote that from their perspective, “environmental dimensions of sustainability easily fit into anengineering program” while issues like macro-ethics are more challenging to integrate [17]. Ifsustainability fits so easily within mainstream approaches to engineering, than its utility tochallenge students to rethink engineering might depend more on instructor interests than thematerial itself.
