Lifelonglearning is now incorporated in the new 2019-2020 ABET Criterion 3 outcome (7) (i.e., “an abilityto acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies”) (ABET,2018). Despite existing as an ABET Criterion 3 outcome for over 20 years, addressing lifelonglearning as an outcome still appears to pose a challenge for some programs. Some programs maybenefit from guidance on measuring students’ ability to demonstrate lifelong learning skills.The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and the American Society for EngineeringEducation (ASEE) can help address concerns about the difficulty of incorporating outcomes intocivil engineering programs by providing more guidance in the CEPC

Students were askedto match the pole location on the left with the step response on the right in Figure 3.Conceptually similar versions of this question was used on the final exam in 2019 and 2021,where essentially only “the numbers were changed”. The instructor does not return finalexams to students so that the odds of students studying for the final based on previous examsshould be low.

increased interest and offerings of higher education facultydevelopment programs in recent years, coaching in higher education settings, particularly in the engineeringdisciplines, remains relatively rare. If coaching does take place, it typically occurs on a small-scale or in singlediscipline programs. Rarely, if ever, does intercollegiate coaching occur. This study reports on the effectiveness ofa large-scale coaching effort, with 73 faculty participants from 15 engineering disciplines at more than 30universities across the country.Beginning in the summer of 2019, a diverse group of engineering faculty participated in the InnovatingCurriculum with Entrepreneurial Mindset (ICE) faculty development workshop.
