• Resumen

  • Informed from (1) case-based pedagogy literature, (2) content, assessment, and pedagogy (CAP) aspects of developing courses, and(3) two professional development workshops in which engineering faculty created case-based materials to incorporate professionalskills into traditional engineering curricula, this paper guides engineering faculty in their creation of short courses or workshopsthat engage their students in professional skills that often are not taught within traditional engineering classrooms. Steps, excerpts,and examples that are useful in the development of these courses or workshops are provided throughout the paper. The authorsenvision that the paper will serve as a user-friendly resource that engineering faculty can use to identify, develop, and implementcourses that seek to address professional skills in their academic settings.
