Further, faculty preparingcurriculum and pedagogies for students considering these areas of study are challenged by theirstudents’ ability to perceive materials, differences in learning abilities, and differences resultingfrom background experiences [1].When comparing the demographics of students in different areas of STEM, students who chosetechnology programs exhibit differences in culture and environmental exposure [2, 3] .

Stevens and Levi [1] posit that there are four basicparts to a rubric: a description of the task or assignment, a scale (levels of the achievement,possibly points or grades), a list of dimensions of the task (a more detailed breakdown ofrequirements and/or skills demonstrated via the task), and a set of descriptions of each level ofperformance (each combination of possible scale level and task dimension).

A good engineer is one who can look at a real-world problem, translate it to anengineering problem, apply the principles of physics & mathematics to formulate & seek anengineering solution and perceive it in the real world. The following stages are fundamental toany engineering discipline and should be the focus of any engineering program:1. Perceive a real-world problem as an engineering problem2.

The aim is to enhance student learning and better preparegraduates for new challenges. Chu’s viewpoint is that a good engineer must not only becomeknowledgeable in certain content areas (components, learned in individual courses), but also beable to apply and integrate that content to solve complex, real-world problems.Motivation for Chu’s work came from an earlier 5-year study of engineering education [2].

In this methodology, an assignment with multiple tasks is normally used to drivethe students learning activities to produce a final product in the form of a design, model, anddevice or service that can be utilized in real world.
