Students did not receive a grade fortheir weekly writing; instead, the course focused on writing feedback that could allow the studentto develop their own writing process.In a required junior-level Thermodynamics course and in two upper-level elective courses inCivil and Environmental Engineering, students were asked to write

Prior to beginning work on thisproject, students are given opportunities to work with a variety of peers during class activitiesand then given structured time during class to form a team of two or three total members. Thisproject provides students a framework for exploring problem spaces of which they share mutualcuriosity, developing multiple ideas to address this problem, discuss their ideas with experts,develop and deliver an inspiring pitch, and write a brief implementation plan and complete abusiness model outline.The second assessment is an active learning, peer teaching activity [7].
