Instead, ABET, Inc., through its Engineering Accreditation Commission(EAC), has established the “Criteria for Accrediting Engineering Programs”8 which specifies thefamiliar eleven learning outcomes commonly referred to as “a – k.” Every accreditedengineering program must demonstrate that its students are able to achieve outcomes a – k,regardless of the number of credit hours in the program.

Without them we would have neither the tools we require nor the data about which we think.” Willliam M. Ivins, Jr., 1953 f. “Reading an engineering drawing is a decoding process. Experienced readers know what to look for, and pursue the wanted information until they find it or until they are satisfied that it is not on the drawing. Readers of an unfamiliar drawing first build in their mind’s eye a three dimensional picture of the object depicted, then they proceed to whatever details they need to determine the

Thischallenge has many elements; 1) As class sizes increase, student participation ishindered and class enrollments often exceed classroom capacities; 2) A lack ofimmediate feedback on student learning hinders timely interventions that wouldotherwise help students succeed; 3) Operation of classes is burdened
