further investigated (by interviews and by examining technical reports) for possiblereasons. Teams that dropped between surveys two and three did so for several reasons. Based onthe follow-ups, the reason for most drops were identified as arisen conflicts in the team at the timein which the surveys were administrated. Identified conflicts included: diverging ideas on system(s)integration, a lack of collaboration among one or more disciplines due to personalities, confusion16 FALL 2017ADVANCES IN ENGINEERING EDUCATIONSurvey Tools for Faculty to Quickly Assess Multidisciplinary Team Dynamicsin Capstone Courseson the direction to proceed that will produce

of dimensions ofsustainability were judged on four criteria, including “no evidence” = no mention, “weak” = mentionedbut no specific example, “fair” = mentioned one example, and “good” = mentioned multiple examples(Bielefeldt 2013).Sustainability Links McCormick’s et al. Sustainability Links were used to assess the connections and interrelatednessbetween the three dimensions of sustainability. Students’ examples of sustainability links were judgedon three criteria, including “concept” = discussion of a topic(s) in relation to a single sustainabilitypillar, “crosslink” = discussion of a topic(s) in relation to two sustainability pillars, and “interdepen-dency” discussion of a topic(s) in relation to all three sustainability pillars

Although the EDPPSR was new to the vast majority of KC judges, when asked how this most recentexperience using the EDPPSR compared to any earlier experience(s), one of the three experiencedusers of the rubric who responded to the survey simply said, Excellent.” The last survey questioninvited additional feedback and elicited a range of comments, including: • I generally like the approach and believe it offers an opportunity for fair evaluation for each participant. • Based on rubric criteria and examples I feel I harshly graded students/ I hope
