study followed by research. Graduate education duringthe century that followed evolved to become a mentor based learning environment wherestudents worked alongside professors on research projects. The benefit of this mentor-basedprocess was that students would transition from consumers of research to producers of research.This process was accelerated in the post-World War II period where the economic expansion andcold war competition of the time period encouraged significant financial support for research. Bythe 1970s top tier universities had interwoven organized research and graduate education andlower tiered institutions strove to emulate this practice.As US Federal research funds began to diminish in the 1970s and 1980s, reduced

While these types of formative assessments are useful for projects, they do notadequately measure students’ abilities to make engineering decisions from a depth of contentunderstanding or their ability to scope an engineering design problem. The findings based on the level of cognitive demand also supports the lack of assessmentof students’ abilities to make engineering designs and problem scope.

, 2017 An Assessment Framework for First- Year Introduction to Engineering Courses AbstractIn this evidence-based practice paper, we describe an assessment framework that applies to first-year introductory engineering courses. First-year engineering courses cover a variety of learningobjectives that address both technical and professional outcomes outlined in ABET. Thesecourses also often involve open-ended design and modeling projects. The assessment of multiplecompetencies along with open-ended design can be a challenging task for educators. In thispaper, we describe a framework that guides instructional processes for effective assessment forstudent learning

The most relevant is case-based teaching toencourage students to apply ethical codes in courses of their later years9. Other authors suggestthat ethical teaching can be linked with team methodologies around project design12. Thiscollective approach facilitates the assessment of the understanding of important norms anddecision making processes, which could be a difficult aspect to assess individually. In spite of the differences that may exist among disciplines or countries, all engineeringethical codes share certain core values.

Electrical engineering students are so accustomed to using commerciallyavailable inductors or transformers whenever they need to use them in their projects. Often timesthis approach is not practical as commercially available magnetic components are limited in theirstandard values. Furthermore, power semiconductor companies many times require their newelectrical engineers to have the basic magnetic design skill enough to design and build their ownmagnetic components for their prototype products. This in turn will reduce company’s time toproduction as well as minimize prototyping cost. To address this issue, Cal Poly
