Abstract | This article describes pedagogical practices that support deeper learning within an academic program. An assignment is presented that simulates the post-graduate challenge of incorporating soft skills with discipline knowledge. The assignment tasks students with investigating a new problem or opportunity using information from a variety of sources. After research, students prepare a quality presentation to report their findings. The assignment supports the development of discipline skills and soft skills including information presentation, critical thinking, and information literacy. The assignment directions include detailed requirements and a rubric. This research exams the impact of first supplementing assignment directions with an exemplar; an ideally completed assignment. Then, second, providing an exemplar of the step-by-step process that led to the creation of the ideal assignment. The article suggests a process for administering the assignment in an upper-level information technology course. The article also describes the adaptation of the assignment to other disciplines.
