Senior’s Capstone Design Project can be imposing courses foran engineering student that has come to expect single answers (to four decimal places) toclassical text book problems in Thermodynamics, Calculus and Fluid Dynamics, to name afew. The typical methodology for studying such traditional engineering subjects is to reviewthe concepts, review worked examples presented by the instructor (hopefully these workedexamples are derived from real-world engineering applications) and then apply theseprincipals to homework problems of the same ilk. The good (or perhaps a better adjective is:trained) student quickly masters these chapter problems and moves on to the next chapters andtheir content of engineering principles that must be mastered.Creative

Surely the focus continuesto include the traditional solidly rooted STEMskills, but also includes professionaldevelopment skills such as: communication,teamwork, global and ethical awareness, andskills for life-long learning.12 In addition tolearning the foundations of design, helping futureengineers master such professional skills as teamwork

granting Associate's degrees. 40 Also since 1990, many 4-year collegesadded ET graduate degrees (Masters’ & Ph. D). So while ET upper-class markets were alreadysmall (3-6,000 per course) & dropped even lower after 1985; it was less than in 2-year programs.Thus fewer majors per program were partly offset by an increase in the number of programs. 41Textbook publishers overlooked this steady increase in the number of accredited ET programs!The author attributes this to the fifth & final "big event" that limited ET text choice: reducedcompetition due to consolidation/ merging of educational publishers (College & K-12), startingaround 1980 & continuing for the 30+ years since. The mergers came in response to the “third/fourth events

Mastery GradingHow can grading be oriented towards recognizing students’ own unique sets of assets andchallenges, while also still encouraging and rewarding their growth? Mastery grading notablydiffers from other grading systems in that grading requires tracking each student’s progresstowards achieving mastery in a number of areas, whether skill- or content-oriented [152],[166]–[168]. In this schema, instructors determine the areas where students are expected to attainmastery, i.e. competencies, and create a series of assessments where students have theopportunity to prove they have mastered one or more areas. Generally assessments may also bedesigned to allow students to continue to retry the same assessment until they can perform at
