English do not have the Englishlanguage communication abilities (and corresponding TOEFL scores) required by the institutionto which they have applied. In such cases students are sometimes required to enroll in intensivelanguage courses to prepare them for eventual admission to the university. The focus of anIntensive English Program (IEP) is to increase student proficiency in English speaking, reading,and writing, and ultimately, to help the student develop the communication skills (and TOEFLscore) required for matriculation at the university as a degree-seeking student. IEPs are generallyadministered by the university that students wish to enroll in following their intensive Englishstudies. Coursework taken by students during their time in IEP

], students are rarely taught how to formulate their owncreative explanations to educate their present and future audiences in academia and industry.Anecdotally, this type of explicit instruction occurs most often in designated writing courses (e.g.[12]) rather than in technical subjects, yet the latter may expect students to produce original textsinvolving complex science and technology for audiences with varying levels of expertise.Similarly, professional engineers are expected to communicate orally with non-technicalaudiences in a variety of rhetorical situations, which requires the translation of engineeringconcepts, data, and developments [13].Beyond professional expectations, the societal implications of how experts communicate withnon
