However, researchers have criticized traditionalevaluation metrics are not suitable for MOOC environments. The purpose of this paper is topresent an evaluation framework for large online graduate level engineering courses. Thisframework addresses this need with a comprehensive evaluation plan of practices and outcomesin MOOCs. Modified from Guskey’s (2000) professional development evaluation process, thisframework examines learners’ satisfaction and value alongside performance, as well aspedagogies to support learning, application of content, and integration of the course with long-term institutional goals.

This led to the bandmembers wanting to provide teachers with more real-life material to share with their students.When the band crossed paths with an engineering professor, that desire became more plausibleand the idea for OK Go Sandbox began to take form.

Even when these equations are simplified, it is difficult to translate themathematical expression into a mental picture of the physical reality. This is true even for manyfaculty who have worked with these equations over the course of a career.

theworkplace. However, engineering students struggle in transitioning into full-time work [10]–[13]. When asked why they were struggling, students expressed that they did not expect thevariety or complexity of the problems they were facing as engineers [10]. They felt unprepared[10] and that previous work experience was the only way to build the skills necessary to solvethese problems [13]. This struggle to transition into full-time work could be related to thedifferences in what knowledge, skills, or abilities are valued in an engineering curriculum overindustry [10], [12], [13]. To combat this struggle, academia can provide students opportunitiesfor work or work-like experiences throughout the curriculum.One such way to provide work experiences to
