Another attempt attransforming electromagnetics came from augmenting the course with a team-based project-based learning approach where it was found that student attitudes about relevance improved, butknowledge gain remained like traditional lecture topics. [6]. All these methods from theliterature point to an increase in student motivation, but do not show a discernable change inknowledge gain as proven by a rigorously developed exam.Ideally, one can apply a nationally standardized exam to measure such knowledge gain.

ABET lists an “ability to communicate with a range ofaudiences” as a student outcome for the accreditation of undergraduate engineering programs[1].Writing specialists have long sought to identify and develop “reliable ways” of helping studentsprepare for the writing situations they will likely encounter as engineers [2, p. 318].

The demand for atechnologically trained workforce far outpaces the growth.

author found that somepredictors of success for women were related to frequency of working on group projects while formen it had to do with satisfaction with math and science coursework and the opportunity to conductresearch. It appeared that the college environment was a greater predictor of success compared tobackground characteristics or precollege experiences. The study also indicated that the collegeenvironment makes students less sure of their motivation to achieve. This may indicate that despitelack of academic preparation, these students can achieve success if the college climate issupportive and conducive to success.

Under the umbrella of active learning,however, a large variety of different (and sometimes contradictory) methodologies have beenproposed; including project-based learning, problem-based learning, gamification, tinkering,collaborative learning, class competitions, and many others. As educators become more interestedin student-centered pedagogies, the question of which specific techniques are most effective isincreasingly important.Because active learning is still an emerging paradigm, the number of studies examining distinctapproaches is somewhat limited, and the difficulty of isolating those techniques in the classroomenvironment is a recognized concern. 1 In this paper, we wish to contribute to the growing pool

Optional minor and certificate programs may exist for those engineering students whoare interested, but even here crucial tensions often go unexplored between definitions ofsustainability (between weak and strong sustainability4, 5, between “technological sustainability”and “ecological sustainability”6, between “eco-efficiency” and “eco-effectiveness”7, or betweensustainability and sustainable development8, 9, 10, 11) and even between areas of the triple bottomline.3 Missing, too, are
