examples in the classroom improves studentinvolvement and enhances the learning experience. In that regard, the electrical engineeringcurriculum has used simulations to assist student learning for more than two decades. A strongargument for the use of circuit simulators in the classroom can be found in [3], where the authorsargue the superiority of the ‘learn by doing” approach to teaching circuit analysis. A more recentexample of this teaching paradigm can be found in [4] where circuit simulation software iscombined with Mathcad to permit student interactive experimentation.Incorporation of projects into lecture classes provides an added mechanism to align thecurriculum with the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET

for this is that students may carry the belief that writing is notimportant in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields. Anothersimilar reason could be that the required university composition course was focused onelements of writing that may not have been perceived as relevant in STEM fields. Often it isindustry partners that drive the need to improve student writing and address changes in thewriting curriculum for engineering courses. One way to explore and improve the writing needsof engineers is through genre theory and/or genre analysis.Genre Theory and Genre Analysis Genre, according to Miller (1984, 2014), is something that defines the context forwhich a piece of writing is written.

Two specific criteria of the Accreditation Boardfor Engineering and Technology (ABET) such as the ability to formulate problems, andknowledge of contemporary issues, rely on a student’s ability to locate and synthesizeinformation in its various formats. Developing information literacy skills will allowstudents to exert more control over the structuring of their own learning within andbeyond the classroom.

suggests thatas much as half a course could be devoted to these topics as core material included in everycomputer engineering program. An expedient way in which this can be done is to require a 3-hour core course in "Embedded Systems and Real Time Programming" as part of the computerengineering curriculum.Hughes and Nelson1 define computer engineering as the following: "Computer engineering embodies the science and the technology of design, construction, implementation and maintenance of the hardware and the software components of modern computing systems and computer-controlled equipment.
