For example, a common in-class reflective activity is the “exam wrapper”: shortly after an exam, students articulate whatthey did that helped them do well on the exam and what they could do differently to improvetheir performance on a future exam.Recently, reflection

Annual assessment doesn’t need to be a burden if it’s organically rooted in a course. • EAMU provides a more robust system that is more than just a pass/fail criteria, leading to better assessment. • Currently, the Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering Program is relying largely on analytic, in-class data for assessment. An additional layer that will be conducted through a capstone audience survey is planned to be implemented this year as a more holistic, qualitative approach, but the survey will be in the form of a rubric to overlay on the EAMU vector.ConclusionWhen programs adopt the new ABET Criterion 3 Student Outcomes, it is important to recognize that a robustassessment

Research suggests that whenstudents are supported to make consequential decisions, they feel a greater sense of ownershipover their work [19, 20]. Framing agency, therefore, can serve as a lens into whether students arelearning to negotiate the process of framing design problems. In our past work, we found thatstudents’ talk in their design teams was indicative of whether they treated the problems asframed for them and not open to reframing, or as problems they themselves needed to frame [18,21].MethodsResearch designIn order to meet our research aims, we first conducted discourse analysis and then explored

Within this debate it is generally assumed that the curriculum is the arenain potential need of reform [3]–[5]. Curriculum reform deliberations tend to operate at arelatively high level, with a central tension between “theory” (engineering and basic sciencecontent) and “practice” (professional skills, often in project type context) [6].A relatively recent focus for global curriculum discussions has been the spread of outcomes-based criteria for accreditation through the mechanism of the

is well-established that students have difficulty transferring knowledge and skills betweencourses in their undergraduate curriculum. At the same time, many college-level courses onlyconcern material relating to the course itself and do not cover how this material might be usedelsewhere. It is unsurprising, then, that students are unable to transfer and integrate knowledgefrom multiple areas into new problems as part of capstone design courses for example, or in theircareers. More work is required to better enable students to transfer knowledge between theircourses, learn skills and theory more deeply, and to form engineers who are better able to adaptto new situations and solve “systems-level” problems.
