This gap highlights a broader issue inaccessibility literature: the emphasis on technical development over practical application. Whilemany of the reviewed records proposed innovative solutions, such as educational games and signlanguage translation systems (Figure 3), these technologies often remained at the prototype stagewithout comprehensive testing in real-world environments. This raises concerns about thelong-term usability and impact of these technologies.

Effective written communication skills are essential for engineers, as is widely recognized inthe field of engineering education and by US and international engineering professional andprogram accreditation organizations [1]–[3]. Since implementation of the EC2000 criteria,communication has been also been explicitly required by ABET accreditation criteria forengineering programs. Specifically, criterion 3g states that programs must demonstrate that theirgraduates develop “an ability to communicate effectively” [1]. While the ABET change in criteria push communication skills from the periphery to a centralcomponent of the engineering curriculum, the implementation of writing activities in engineeringcourses is often lacking.

should promote learning by indicating levels of proficiency orperformance levels as opposed to just scores for grades.Self-assessment and self-grading activities, when applied correctly, can support the student aspart of his or her learning process. For this reason, these activities should be viewed not asisolated practices but as part of the overall learning process [28]. Despite decades of research onthese promising techniques, self-assessment remains somewhat of a “niche market for theenthusiastic” and self-grading activities, particularly on exams, “remain unlikely due to social,political, and logistical reasons” [16]. Since opportunities remain to develop consistent andsystematic usage of these techniques, further study is needed so that

Both highschool and university programs vary around these two general definitions. Some programs focuson specific skills and experiences designed to support a student as they set up a business.

That is, each expressed a different opinion on what perspective securityshould be covered for software engineering students.This led to an effort to define what an appropriate software engineering perspective courseshould include, and how it should fit in the design and student experience in a softwareengineering program.

This is not going to happen, but the issue of howremote instruction affects engineering education is certainly unanswered. Various coalitions,cooperating schools, and other entities are already sharing course and instructors via remotemedia.

Delaying one test of a subsystem directly impacted everyone else’s schedules. Students were also responsible for adhering to the cost, size, and weight budgets set forth in the design and documentation phase of the project. • The first iteration of the course was more effective in teaching the systems engineering concepts, but the lack of time made the experience full for just

Assessing students in each of these scales can provide evenfurther insight into innovative self-efficacy’s impact on student goals.There is a gap in the literature regarding the inherent innovation benefits to teachers themselvesthrough the design and development of lesson plans for students. While it is common knowledgethat the best way to learn is to teach, this generally refers to improving understanding of specificmaterial as opposed to improving self-efficacy and competence in questioning, observing,experimenting, idea networking, and
