communicationEmployers continually emphasize the need for strong communication skills. The twenty-firstcentury employee or entrepreneur in engineering and technology will participate in presentations,collaborations, one-on-one communications, research, design, and report writing. The ability tocommunicate orally and in writing is central to the ability to achieve success. Unfortunately,students tend to shy away from activities where they lack skill or confidence. The only way toovercome their discomfort is through good practice. Practice is the art of moving fromuncomfortable to comfortable and completing this transition generally means doing somethinguncomfortable in between.

In practice, young graduate engineers who want to create the future in-stead of staying in a comfortable and predictable world of natural sciences, need to navigateand negotiate their way in complex and constantly changing environments that have both nat-ural sciences based and more human centered challenges. Engineering education research haswidely acknowledged this and it is a common baseline for curricula and teaching methods indesign and in engineering education yet pragmatic solutions tend to be context driven and fo-cused on areas that are measurable quantitatively.

Landis14 toincrease the quality of the educational experience of first-year engineering undergraduatestudents. Typically, approaches to increase the nature and quality of undergraduate educationexperience are focused on instructional and/or curricular changes. The DYP program is differentin that it focuses on what the students can do themselves to become self-regulated students andtherefore are not only more likely to graduate with an engineering degree but also with a higherquality, i.e. with a higher GPA.

they design and develop products, systems, and environments to solve practical problems. Close reading of TfAAP suggests that, while the authors may have had primarily in mindteaching technology to the technically illiterate, the goal cuts both ways. The goal includes theability to “manage, assess, and understand technology.” Thus it is not enough to know how itworks or how to build it, the technologically literate citizen must be able to manage and assesstechnology. Thus, TfAAP places burdens on all sectors of education – both liberal arts andengineering – to create more well-rounded graduates. The national efforts of TfAAP are directed at K-12, but shouldn’t there also be a similareffort in higher education? Sadly, in the
