The ETW also encourages using a variety of assignments based on the time available, the purpose of the assessment, and the cognitive level of the learning objective as part of the Planning a Class seminar and the development of in- class and out-of-class activities. The ETW should, as a minimum, include the added benefit of assessing a wider diversity of students by using a variety of assignments in this discussion. Of course, this wider variety of assignments will be more successful in smaller class sizes where the student-faculty interaction is greater and effective

The CEPCTC believes that it is critical that future civil engineers have a strong physical understanding of the materials and systems they will design and manage.• Technical Breadth: The existing CEPC only require students to apply knowledge of four technical areas appropriate to civil engineering. The proposed CEPC require that students analyze and solve well-defined problems in at least four technical areas appropriate to civil engineering. The change represents a higher cognitive level in Bloom’s taxonomy. The significance of this change is minor, if at all. The requirement to apply knowledge
