Social theories put greater emphasis on the purpose of writing as a means ofcommunication and on the social contexts and interactions that influence writing [20], [21]. Inparallel with research in these areas, Writing-Across-the-Curriculum (WAC) programs havebeen widely implemented in universities to support writing instruction across disciplines, andWriting-in-the-Discipline (WID) research and pedagogies have particularly worked to describeand develop specialized genres and practices within a discipline.As we work to improve writing instruction in engineering, three fundamental principles stand outfrom these literatures: i) writing is a complex and social process rather than just a product; ii)writing

Our relationship with NASAcontinued in 2011, when two students and one faculty were accepted for ten-week summerinternships at Johnson Space Center and four students participated in solar panels research atour college. The success of this program and funding provided by several other grants helped us institute a Summer Undergraduate Research Program on our premises16 . The fundamental idea behind this program is that our students get to experience the entire research discovery process and the scientific method from A to Z, rather than acting as assistants for someone else’s research. We formed a team of three professors (one a Physics professor, one an Electrical Engineer, and me, a Mechanical Engineer) who review proposals

Therefore, engaging students in CTthrough the context of engineering education can promote problem-solving skills, and may helpstudents find innovative solutions and make good decisions [7].Wing [11] argues that CT is a core ability for reading, writing and math and should be added toanalytical ability of children.

TheArduino IDE’s editor page is used to write the Arduino program called a “sketch.” The Arduinoenvironment transforms the sketch into a C++ program through pre-processing that slightlymodifies the sketch, e.g., by adding automatically generated function prototypes. Following thepre-processing, the resulting code is compiled using a C/C++ compiler (avr-g++). The Arduinoenvironment supports various C/C++ programming constructs that work with avr-g++.
