I canfix it because it is my idea, no one else.” She further explained the excitement associated with“real challenges” and “real applications”: “Different from other project teams, we work ondifferent problems each year, so we can’t carry over from year to year. …. All these things arechallenges that NASA hasn’t figured out. What we do actually contributes to something.”Likewise, Annie found her ESPT experience directly shaped “how [she] view[s] environmentalengineering;” she commented, “Water problems are really not very simple and they don’t oftencome just with one problem and solution.”Furthermore, ESPTs offered community. Nickie very much respected the other students that sheworked with, “the people that I have been able to work with

stopping distance of 301 m within13.8 s. The best of 10 trials for the brake have shown a stopping distance of 212 m within 10.3 s. Thisshows approximately a 30% reduction in the stopping distance. The standard does not require the brake tohappen within any specified timeframe, but the time was collected to help understand how the brake isperforming along with the ability to calculate the acceleration of the brake for Figure 15. When braking,the deceleration is on average 19% greater than without braking [5]. 120 Velocity vs Distance 0.00

carefully selected problem(s)might be an effective way to demonstrate such enhancements. The main goal here is to establish assessment practices which impact the overall program,and the students. The second goal would then be identification of most positive or valuableexperiences, if any, during students’ Thermodynamics I and Thermodynamics II semesters.Looking at previous Thermodynamics I experiences, could help stimulate enhancement in futureThermodynamics I sections. Observing present Thermodynamics II activities, might lead toidentification of activities, if any, which can help improve any of students’ knowledge gaps andassociated performance, whether they love thermo-fluids, are typically great students, or are onthe opposite ends of

were unfamiliar to studentssuch as graphics packages would require careful planning and estimation of these tasks prior tobeginning a project. Additionally, early planning and careful estimation of high-risk tasksrequiring unfamiliar technologies may lead to a reduction in the scope of work for a project sothat it can be fully completed and debugged prior to delivery. Finally, many of the apps couldbenefit from more emphasis on UX and UI design to provide a better user experience.ReferencesBrown, Q., Lee, F., & Alejandre, S. (2009, April).

Amortization and distribution of workThe last three principles are quite straightforward and may be viewed as common sense,however, the first principle may diverge from current prescribed best practices. It has long beenadvocated that accreditation and assessment should be by-products of good practices andprocesses rather than the main objective for designing the program. However, in small tomedium liberal arts colleges, especially those with limited exposure to engineering programs andengineering accreditation, “getting started” is often the biggest hurdle. There is often no in-houseexpertise and likely, the engineering program(s) is(are) newly-established. In this case
