of leadership perceptions among faculty andadministrators, a by-discipline analysis was conducted. Table 5 shows the general lack ofconsensus as to the degree to which professional skills detract from technical content acrossengineering disciplines. Within this analysis, ANOVA indicated that Program Chairs andAssociate Deans showed no significant differences. Mechanical engineering faculty differedsignificantly from bioengineering/biomedical, civil, industrial, and electrical engineering at theα=0.05 level. The overall stronger agreement among mechanical engineers seems to suggest amore technically minded mechanical engineering discipline from other disciplines within thisstudy. If one considers the nature of bioengineering/biomedical, civil

Paper ID #9740Evaluating the Effects of Non-Anonymity on Student Team-Member Evalua-tionsMr. Taylor Robert Smith, Brigham Young University Taylor Smith has a Bachelor of Science and a Master’s degree from the civil and environmental engi- neering program at Brigham Young University. For his graduate studies Taylor’s classwork and technical emphasis were in geotechnical engineering; however, his Master’s Thesis was non-technical and he ex- amined and tested ways to improve performance through the use of peer feedback. More particularly, he evaluated the effect that having students conduct team member evaluations non
