. Externalbenchmarking with engineering librarians at peer institutions provided a broader perspective on bestpractices and innovative approaches to supporting engineering education. The findings emphasizedthe importance of strengthening faculty-library partnerships to address these challenges effectively.By cultivating collaborative relationships, libraries can play a pivotal role in supporting facultyteaching goals while enhancing the educational experience for students. This partnership-drivenapproach paves the way for innovative instructional practices.This paper emphasizes the transformative potential of faculty-library collaboration in fosteringstudent-centered learning environments.

As the tools and computational resourcesadvance, a perennial question is what should be taught in introductory structural analysiscourses. Coupled with that question is what is an engineer, as opposed to an engineeringtechnician, and what do we expect engineers to do in the future. The real question for structuralengineering education is “What must a structural engineer know to be prepared for professionalpractice upon graduation and to successfully adapt to change that is inevitable over the 45

A morecomprehensive qualitative assessment approach applied to a college, such as that outlined in ourmodel, could provide valuable feedback. Other examples where the model might be appliedinclude distributed research centers, distance education curricula that involve multiple sources,and linked institutions such as community colleges in a state system.

When looking at the research in regards topredicting which institutions did the best job, it was noted that for both minority and non-minority engineering schools, selectivity was the most important predicator of degree attainment.Additionally, the more expensive institutions with higher selectivity had the higher graduationrates for all students18. These graduation rates have remained unchanged since the 1980’s. Based on the information here one would think that engineering schools would havesome idea as to why their numbers continue to decline. But this does not seem to be the case. Page 7.4.5

Once developed, rubrics must betested, and deviations between raters of the same instrument should not exceed one level. It israre that a rubric will prove satisfactory without modifications after testing, and periodic re-evaluation and modification are also necessary. Once performance criteria and/or attributes aredefined, the best way to proceed is to define what superior performance is and what notacceptable performance is, i.e., the extremes should be defined first.
