addressed throughout the duration of a course. Moreover,conceptual understanding is crucial for developing transferable learning [8], which is desired inengineering education.Many methods have been developed to analyze conceptual understanding within engineeringeducation. One of the most adaptable ones, concept maps, are type of graphic organizer that haveoften been used to assess students’ mental models and knowledge structures [9], [10]. This paperpresents an argument supporting the use of concept maps to assess student understanding oftechnical knowledge. In particular, this work focuses on the assessment of static stability inaerospace courses.Literature reviewDespite existing literature showing the benefits of teaching for conceptual

through repeated practice.In this work, we introduced concept mapping as an assessment tool to help students build theselinks and enhance their learning experience. The goal is to improve students’ comprehension,retention, and interconnectivity of complex course topics. We have systematically integratedconcept mapping into four distinct courses: a freshman course about electronics (ECE 110), asophomore course about signal processing (ECE 210), and two junior-level courses aboutelectromagnetics (ECE 329) and green energy (ECE 333). In each course, students were asked tocreate their own concept maps before midterm exams. The maps were scored qualitatively by theinstructor based on the number of concepts and their structures.

Aflexible measurement tool such as concept mapping allows students to explore ideas creatively,while still allowing instructors to understand thought processes and knowledge development.When connecting EM to international experiences, curiosity is developed through discussionswith people from different cultures. Students have the opportunity to spark lifelong curiositywhile developing an appreciation of differences with the realization that diverse perspectiveslead to innovative solutions.

Although class periodswere devoted to some of the activities, the time that was spent was helpful in furtherdeveloping student skills, not just for the Reactor Design class but for other classes. Future implementations of the activities should are suggested to include approachesthat will enable a clearer assessment of how students are making connections betweenconcepts.

typically within the chemicals or petrochemicalsector. This means that students interested in other fields such as biological systems or semiconductorsmay be less motivated in this course. For these reasons, there is discourse on implementing systemsthinking and design throughout the curriculum instead of tying the curriculum together at the very endof a student’s learning experience. All these issues mean the curriculum needs to be evaluated to improve outcomes. There are some toolsto analyze curricula, such as curriculum prerequisite maps to identify bridge and source-hub courses,tree-structured topic modeling, connection coefficient determination, and concept maps [6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11].Concept maps have been applied to chemical engineering

The Independent ResearchWorksheet helped the group identify what they needed to learn about the problem in the casestudy and develop a plan for acquiring that knowledge. The students were assessed in thefollowing ways: pre- and post-test on content knowledge, group presentation, case study report,concept map, and teamwork assessment.
