, which is a technical writing course offered by the Englishdepartment specifically designed to teach engineers best practices for writing reports andresearch papers. It is therefore expected that students should be reasonably proficient inpresenting their results in written form. It is clear from their narrative descriptions in the surveythat they have not necessarily internalized the entire data reporting process. Descriptions focusheavily on writing tasks and calculation tasks, but tend to forget the higher order tasks ofscientific and academic argument. The tasks which are more concrete, such as graphing,calculating, and following standard writing schemes stick in students’ minds as the key tasks inprocessing lab data. It is particularly
