The study consists of a comparison of course objective assessment between studentswho were enrolled in the author’s Circuits I courses before and since the implementation ofSBG. Although assessment of final exam data show a decrease in final exam objectiveperformance after the implementation of SBG, course grades are unaffected by the change, andstudents are more aware of strengths and weaknesses in essential course objectives.Comparison to similar worksStandards-based grading (SBG) is an assessment approach that has grown in use since itsintroduction in the early 1980s and subsequent implementations in the 1990s and early 2000s.

At this stage, we identified basic concepts thatinstructors think are most critical for students to master AC, DC, and circuit analysis concepts. We reliedon the contributions of instructors and content knowledge experts. At the conclusion of this stage, ECCDwas narrowed to focus on the most important concepts, and identify and associate specific items to selectedconcepts.4.2 Identify alternative conceptions: The major deliverables at this stage of the project are to develop thereason-tier of the ECCD, and to develop a

Problem solving in engineering demands very special habits of thinkingbecause in most of the cases, there is not one unique solution and an ability to find a goodsolution requires a wide variety of competencies related to mathematical, scientific, and socialknowledge (McKenna, 2015).
