This chapter broadens and concludes the discussion of the second question central to the reform of engineering education: How can we do better at ensuring that students learn these skills? The curriculum design process, presented in Chapter Four, develops an approach to integrating learning outcomes into the curriculum. Design-implement projects, discussed in Chapter Five, are a principal mechanism to create dual-impact learning experiences, and therefore, both fulfill the skills learning outcomes and deepen students’ understanding of disciplinary knowledge.
