This alignswith the goal of The Engineer of 2020 and is important to consider in curriculum development inengineering. Similarly, the key areas that students feel least confident in can be consideredopportunities to help them learn. For example, we found the students do not feel confident inidentifying the audience for whom they are writing, expressing ideas clearly to others, clarifyingthe source of problems on teams when they arise, identifying verbal and non-verbal behaviorsthat may be due to cultural norms, and creating visuals that communicate concepts, narratives, orarguments.Communication instructors, we hope, can benefit from our study by developing

The framework is supported by ASEE and has beengrowing in popularity recently.While the framework itself includes a wealth of information through the assembly of the ideasand opinions of many different experienced professionals, it also includes an overwhelmingamount of information and outcomes if the intent is for it to be integrated into an existingengineering curriculum. There are also some unique challenges that accompany efforts tointegrate the framework into an engineering curriculum at a Christian institution, such as the oneat which the authors teach.

beneficial.Specifically, reasons include using engineering design as a framework to design and organizeany curriculum and to integrate students’ studies in mathematics, science, and technology.5There has also recently been a push to include multidisciplinary open-ended design in first-yearengineering courses. Previously, many established first year engineering programs and most highschool summer STEM programs utilized robot projects or predefined problems to teachengineering design. However, assigning students a problem to solve diminishes some of theengineering design process, which often starts with a questioning, iterative brainstorming sessionto identify problems on a global or personal scale that can be solved by an engineered solution orproduct.
