In particular, undergraduateresearch and internships are relevant to engineering education but are not utilized by allundergraduate students (as opposed to a required capstone design experience). Thisunderstanding of high impact practices, the engineering education landscape, and the variationsin access to these experiences amongst students led to the focus on the role of undergraduateresearch and internships on engineering task self

outcomes and observations on adopting the new method.Based on the results of numerous informal classroom experiments and hundreds of informaldiscussions with students, it was determined that most students do not use effective studystrategies to fully understand key concepts and to master problem solving techniques. Instead,the goal of their current studying and test taking strategies is to “maximize partial credit.” Thesestrategies work as follows. 1. Memorize problems from the homework, in-class examples, or previous exams. 2. Match each problem on the exam to one of the memorized problems that most closely resembles it. 3. Write down the memorized solution, making adjustments along the way so that the solution looks more relevant

Martin acknowledged a trend in computing education where most software thatstudents write for programming assignments “never see the light of day.” Consequently, Martinargued that “toy projects” that have no real customers or use outside of the classroom areharmful [8].Likewise, Nurkkala and Brandle assessed common gaps between common software engineering“toy projects” and real software practice, explaining: A student project is just that—a project. It is not a product in any meaningful, commercial sense. Such a nonproduct escapes the scrutiny of sales, marketing, and customer relations.

This insight provides valuable feedback that will help inform futureimplementation and modification of the assessment scheme. “I like the idea of having a point-scale assessment sheet because it puts every student on the same level. In my other classes I feel inferior to my peers because I know they’re smarter than me.

That issue was compounded by both the hidden job market(i.e.: small companies often don’t post and promote positions in the same way large companiesdo) and the lack of specificity in job postings, with second and third-year engineering studentsoften not having the base of knowledge yet to

.Engineering Education Capability Maturity Model 13Current accreditation processes are binary, the program either gets accredited or not. A multi-level model to facilitate the process of going through accreditation and to help find peers couldincrease the number of LAC programs that seek accreditation. The proposed model is based on afive-level process improvement model proposed in 1995 at Carnegie Mellon University, calledthe Capability Maturity Model (CMM)9. The CMM measures an organization’s processcapability, i.e. the inherent ability of a process to produce planned results. As the processcapability increases, the results become predictable and measurable, and the most significantcauses of poor quality and productivity are controlled or eliminated
