ordifficulties with demonstrating their KSAs in machine design are rapidly uncovered with weekly conceptquizzes. Finally, the outcomes of the pilot and full implementation of a machine design course usingcompetency-based assessment will be presented, with a discussion of future planned work.KeywordsMachine Design, Competency, Course DesignIntroductionAssessing student knowledge, skill, and ability in a senior-level machine design course typically oftenrelies on a combination of homework (HW), quizzes (Q), and major exams (E). The HW may includethree to four problems and may be scored for completion and/or correctness, assuming that students maybe working in collaborative teams to complete their work outside of a class setting. Whereas Q and E areoften

bythe instructor and the final class grades. To understand the effect of in-class problem-solving onthe perceptions and attitudes of students, surveys were conducted at the end of the semester withthree questions to compare the students’ learning experiences. The survey questions are presentedin Figure 1. The first two questions were asked to understand the students’ perceptions andattitudes about the course content and alignment. The third question introduced the in-classproblem-solving and its effect. Q.1. Did tests reflect the material covered in the class? a. Excellent (5) b. Above Average (4) c. Average (3) d. Below Average (2) e. Very Poor (1) Q.2. Is there a good

: surveys, discussions & polls in class, peer tutoring, Q&A in office hoursME425 has been identified as one of the most challenging design courses in the MechanicalEngineering major. It requires students’ deep engagement and comprehensive skills for problemsolving, design of mechanical systems and components that need to integrate all the knowledgestudents have assimilated through various courses in their major for professional success. ProjBLpedagogy has been adopted and implemented in ME425. This engaged pedagogy aims to helpstudents enhance their cognitive, non-cognitive and critical thinking skills through engineeringdesign tasks. The online section of ME425 has implemented similar components as CS102.CMG250 has been identified as one
