Thus, it is likely you willneed to provide samples of student work related to assessment performance indicators (sorted bystudent outcome) as well as samples of student work that document inclusion of discipline-specific topics (sorted by course). Most accreditation bodies do not have requirementsassociated with the format of student work samples (electronic versus paper). However, carefulorganization is

Students can elect to take1, 2, or 3 credits of research each semester. Developing a concrete grading scheme that is both effective and efficient has long been adifficult task. To combat this problem, the co-author has implemented a specifications gradingapproach during the last three semesters (starting in Fall 2018). The defined specifications aremade up of two components: deliverables and hours of effort. The deliverables are comprised of mandatory university safety trainings to gain access tothe lab, responsible conduct of research training, educational and skills modules, reflections,planning

Engineering employers have ranked skills such as teamwork,communication, analytical skills, self-confidence, flexibility, customer orientation, and self-organization as highly valuable employability skills [11]. Workplace skills can be grouped intotwo categories: 1) personal qualities, such as adaptability, attention to detail, commitment,cooperation; and 2) core skills, such listening, ethical soundness, information retrieval,interpersonal skills, leadership, and teamwork) [11].
