that low performers overestimate theirabilities across multiple contexts 14, 15. In evaluating peers in engineering courses anothervariable is where the teamwork experience falls on the spectrum of team projects. On oneextreme of this spectrum are fully cooperative experiences in which the team works togethertowards a common goal. This extreme is defined by a single shared experience. On the otherextreme are “divide-and-conquer” projects. Here a team assigns each individual separate taskswhich each contribute to a shared team goal. Such approaches—an example is the jigsawteaching technique—are defined by unique experiences for each individual. This approach iscommon to many capstone design courses.This report looks at peer evaluation in a

It was evidentthat a cultural change was necessary to switch from “sink or swim” culture to a less competitiveand collaboration-based environment. In fact, we need a change of paradigm from a teacher-centered to a student-centered pedagogy (4).StructureThe road to success for this project requires everyone’s contribution and involvement. Eachperson’s opinion and contribution must be requested and valued. What is especially important isto avoid giving people the impression that changes are imposed upon them. In the same way

Work in Progress: Development of a Simplistic Agent-Based Model to Simulate Team Progress within an Innovation-Based Learning CourseAbstractThis work in progress discusses the development of a simplistic agent-based model used tosimulate probabilistic team behavior within an Innovation-Based Learning (IBL) course.Innovation-Based Learning is a non-traditional learning model that encourages students to learnboth technical and entrepreneurial skills by working on a team project. The course pushesstudents to think innovatively, especially on problems with “unknown unknowns” typical ofcomplex systems. In IBL, students are expected to learn and then apply the core concepts theylearn into their innovation projects and track all

In this study, two evidence-basedpedagogies, problem-based learning and project-based learning have been implemented andtested in different levels of STEM gateway courses in the last three years. An assessmentframework has been established to analyze the effect of the implemented pedagogies.Continuous assessment data have been collected and compared with the baseline data collectedin the lecture-dominated same courses.

Development ofan effective assessment plan is critical for measuring the benefits of this new course sequence.Since the courses in the design sequence are taught by a large number of faculty, and asignificant number of part-time faculty, a uniform set of evaluation tools was developed whichwill be used for every course in the sequence.

The most salient feature of PCM rests in the multiple curricular configurations that result from the use of four interrelated and parallel designs for organizing curriculum: Core, Practice, Connections, and Identity. The four parallels offer opportunities to optimize student learning through the creation of a curriculum that is more meaningful, powerful, and engaging in the education of confident and competent engineering professionals. Projects presented at past ASEE conferences are innovative because they address specific parallels, thus fleshing out a student’s overall education.
