assessed.The dictionary meaning of Skill refers to expertise or the “ability to do something well”. AWorkplace Skill would then be one that provides expertise for success at completing tasksrelevant to an employee’s the area of work. For engineers, this at its highest level can bedescribed as technical problem solving. This has aptly focused engineering degree programs ondeveloping Problem Solving Skills in their curricula. At the same time, it’s been well recognizedthat engineers do not problem solve by themselves. This has led to a complimentary category ofskills commonly referred to as the Professional or Soft Skills. These include developing expertisein communication, teamwork, ethical practice and lifelong learning. This category of skills isalso

. The course topics thatwere not covered in ERSP at UIC due to time restrictions included: ethics in research, oralcommunication, peer-review (reduced time from 3 classes to 2 classes), and basic statistics andhypothesis testing. We also had to remove the following in-class exercises due to timerestrictions: final proposal presentation and reflections.One of the components that was critical to our adoption of ERSP, especially in ENG 294, waslogging because it helped us to identify team issues and determine proposal progress. Anothercritical aspect of the course was allocating time during class to check-in with each of the teams.Check-ins were done by the faculty and the graduate student.ConclusionOverall, the changes made to the ERSP model were

After removing unique identifiers from the survey, the engineering professorsgraded them. Each professor was responsible for the same questions at Time 1 (before thecourse) and Time 2 (after the course) so as to maintain as much uniformity in grading aspossible. No grade was attached to the survey, as per ethical guidelines, but students were told to“do their best.”Research Questions:Thus, our research questions include: i) what is the knowledge

of individual assessments (points in time) are stated, includingbreadth and depth limitations, coverage limitations, and circumstantial limitations.Since Nyquist-Shannon’s sampling theorem uses ideal sampling to address the question ofsampling frequency, and because ideal sampling is based on the so-called unit impulse function,the widely accepted one-or-two-hour exam is suggested as a practical approximation of the unitimpulse function. Under this assumption, it is argued that an adequately weighted homeworkassignment could also be considered as a practical approximation of the unit impulse function,provided a high ethical standard is adhered to. This brings up the issues of ethics and plagiarismin modern engineering schools, and the need
