Data from a MOOC entitled TheEngineering of Structures Around Us is used to answer these questions and to guide teaching ofthis and other courses.Active LearningA recent meta-analysis that included 225 studies found that student performance and retention inscience, math, technology, and engineering courses increased when active learning strategieswere used.1 Student performance on exams was found to be 6% higher when active learning wasused and students in courses that included active learning were 1.5 times less likely to fail thecourse.1 Other studies support the finding that active learning results in improved engagement inengineering and across disciplines.2, 3, 4What is active learning?

Alabama c American Society for Engineering Education, 2016 Student Portfolios for Assessment and Self-LearningIntroductionA well-conceived process for robust assessment has become an expected, if not required,component of academic programs in higher education. Most agree that a strong assessmentprogram must include an evaluation of Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs). Since the advent ofABET2000, assessment of SLOs has become a critical component of program assessment inengineering, technology, and computer science programs.
