hascontributed to a high degree of willingness of staff to take the time out of their busyschedules and help students.In almost all 10 years, at some time the course instructors and faculty advisors have hadto walk a fine line in project management issues, choosing between three basic options: 1. Let students work out the issues with possible detrimental effects to course or deliverables 2. Provide limited executive decisions to positively affect the outcome(s) 3. Weigh in heavily and interrupt the interactions that might (or might not) work themselves out in a timely manner by the studentsSuch decisions are difficult at times, and Option 3 will typically result in meetingdeadlines but with a less valuable student learning process

achieve similargoals as presented in this paper.Appropriate Taxonomies for AssessmentTo assess the effectiveness of an engineering course for non-engineers with the EDP requiresadopting a broader context of taxonomies than traditionally may be employed. A commonapproach is to utilize the work done by Benjamin Bloom’s 1950’s education committee. Thecommittee established a set of taxonomies in three learning domains: cognitive, affective andpsychomotor. The domains have been identified as, “arguably one of the most influentialeducation monographs of the past half century 4.” The taxonomies are a language that isproposed to describe the progressive development of an individual in each domain and aredefined as follows 5: • Cognitive: of
