is believed that results highlighted several previously unknown issues with certain itemsfrom the EERI. Fortunately, the results also provide evidence-based support for how the indicateditems may need to be updated, or justification for their removal. IntroductionThis paper is a qualitative follow-up to a paper presented at the 2019 ASEE Annual Conference.In the previous study referenced [1], results from a partial confirmatory factor analysis (PCFA)of the EERI were presented. A PCFA is a method by which some true confirmatory factoranalytic (CFA) fit statistics can be estimated without the use of structural equation modellingtechniques or software [2]. Since a PCFA can be conducted within SPSS, it
the problem. This focus is appropriate for the specific material ofthe course, but it misses how and why one gets to the point where the course material is needed.It also misses more general aspects of engineering and technology. Courses with project workmove beyond this to some degree, but are unlikely to succeed in covering some facets oftechnological and engineering literacy (TEL).Many approaches have been documented for teaching technological and engineering literacy [4,5]. A search for technological and engineering literacy in the ASEE PEER database in February,2019, resulted in a list of 60 papers from technical sessions of the Technological and EngineeringLiteracy/Philosophy of Engineering (TELPhE) Division alone; 163 are listed for

even more about design and other fields that they will work in [5].Structural educators are continuously tasked with preparing undergraduate students to becomeprofessionals [1] that have obtained practical skills ready for immediate application in industry. To betterunderstand the need for professional readiness, the National Council of Structural Engineers Associations(NCSEA) frequently conducts a survey of universities and professionals on core structural topics. The twomost recent surveys were conducted in 2016 [19] and in 2019 [2]. A reoccurring theme across the surveys is the limited room in already cramped curricula [8] tocover all necessary topics [2,19]. The NCSEA survey [2] documents many topics that should be taught(Table 1
% of employers complain that candidates are lacking in motivation, communicationskills, punctuality, and flexibility. Hence, it is important to investigate techniques that will improvefactors such as quality and timeliness, thereby providing a more holistic academic experience toSTEM students. Furthermore, there is an acute need to develop professional skills such as writing,communication, punctuality, and curiosity. It is important to consider every opportunity to develop professional skills by introducing appro-priate interventions in every course. This will reinforce the development of these skills throughoutthe undergraduate years (Rao et al., 2019). Three major forces are shaping higher education in the U.S. These consist of the rising
