Engineering TasksIntroductionIll-structured design tasks are an important feature of engineering education because they supportcollaborative problem solving, which is an essential element of STEM curricula in the 21stcentury [1]. These tasks are especially important because they pose teamwork-based designchallenges that resemble authentic work students will encounter in their future workplaces [2].Solving collaborative ill-structured tasks allows students to expand their learning beyond “drill-and-practice”-type problem solving and engage in higher order thinking [3]. In the past decade,studies have established how to design and implement ill-structured tasks in engineeringcurricula [4]. These studies have shown the need for scaffolding in ill

(Lappalainen, 2009). To improve teaching and learning of professionalskills in engineering students, several methods have been investigated, including 1) collaborativelearning, 2) interprofessional learning, and 3) service learning. Collaborative learning has beenimplemented to increase learning of concepts as well as higher order thinking (Menske and Chi,2019). Interprofessional learning experiences, which involve students in more than onediscipline, can expose students to communication with a range of audiences, however there arelogistical challenges within interprofessional learning and students may not value theprofessional skills as deeply as the technical skills (Carrico et al., 2020).
