The course features manyelements including: design and software engineering, writing for broad audiences, oralpresentations, staged development of the student product, use of modern software tools, andcontact with alumni to bridge students towards their future work environments. Two types ofdata have shaped the lessons learned: formal focus groups conducted with each class of seniordesign students, and informal feedback from well-meaning alumni. The interesting conclusion isthat the very features seniors tend to complain about – design, writing and oral presentation – arethe ones alumni report as the most valuable.1.0 IntroductionCapstone courses in American higher education are thought to date back to the 1850’s, whencolleges like

readily observe their effectiveness anecdotally inthe classroom, evaluating their effectiveness more rigorously remains a challenge. As a firststep, we attempted to discern concrete differences between the concept maps students made inthe initial (conceptual) design stage and those they produced during the final exam, looking foran increased sense of “connectedness” and “causality” from one to the other. In particular, weexamined the maps in terms of the numbers of nodes and links, any causality representedbetween nodes, and the students’ choice(s) of “top” node, among other general qualities.As expected, the “causality” demonstrated by the students certainly matured (on average)between their initial and final concept maps, but it was difficult
Administration buildings are responsible for 48% ofgreenhouse gas emissions annually and 76% of all electricity generated by U.S. power plants. [5]Passive House Construction offers a solution to these problems, but while popular in Europe, it isnot yet widespread in our country. According to Germany’s Passivhaus Institute, "A passivehouse is a building in which a comfortable interior climate can be maintained without activeheating and cooling systems. The house heats and cools itself." The forerunner to the passivehouse was the "super-insulated" houses of North America built in the 1970’s.[6] Passive Housingstarted in May 1988 by Professor Bo Adamson and physicist Dr. Wolfgang Feist during aresearch stay (in the field of building construction) at the
