Stevens believes that in conducting assessments it iscrucial for improvements to begin with full utilization of current examinations, projects and otheractivities. Distributed grading distributes current aggregate grades as well as the Grade PointAverage over the curricular objectives and allows for a quantitative expression of the emphasis givento the objectives across the curriculum (DeLancey, 1998, 1999).To make this work at the course level requires a series of problems, exams, projects, etc

One grouprequiring unique retention efforts is students who are making satisfactory grades when theydecide to withdraw. Many of these students have a difficult time connecting the work ofintroductory engineering classes with the local, national and international societal issues thatthey value. Service learning has been integrated into many non-engineering curricula withsuccess in developing skills and promoting social engagement. In engineering settings it canalso be used to highlight the link between engineering and society at moments when studentsseek such a connection.

A central theme behind the courses is that manufacturing topics are cast ina concurrent engineering design context. The introductory first course is taught at the junior level, while thesecond course is a more comprehensive senior offering. Both courses require the student to participate in designand build projects. The students are placed in teams and must learn to communicate and work effectively in theteam environment. Further, both courses make use of the state’s educational manufacturing resources in anovel, collaborative arrangement. This approach allows the

The final burden is upon the individual’s conscience andvalues.” 4 Engineering ethics curriculums should emphasize that all decisions-bothprofessional and personal-are based on one’s values. No one makes decisions of any kindin a moral vacuum; no decision is value-free. Beginning professionals need to be madeaware of this reality, as it is germane to developing professional integrity. Whenindividuals have had the opportunity to explore and develop their own moral autonomy,this moral framework then serves as an explicit roadmap for any decision they

Differences in scoresby major are difficult to conclude due to small sample sizes, but the results could impact thecurricula of those specific majors, which diverge after the first year, and thus will be explored infuture work.
