To do this, we created two grading silos: (a) Average performing students,and (b) Low performing students. This was done to eliminate the bias that might result fromcomparing high performing teams from one year to low performing teams in another. We basedour silos’ grade range on the University’s transcript guide and the course’s historical average. Apresentation was deemed to belong to the average performing silo if it received a B (between73% and 76%). Likewise, a low performing presentation scored a C (between 63% and 66%).Second, we selected for distinct evaluators for the

past the middle of the semester, there wasnot enough time to accomplish all three tasks, and none of the submitted designs met the full setof design criteria. If the project had been introduced early in the semester as a required part ofthe curriculum, the students earning an A or B for the course would have submitted designswhich would have been more likely to meet the criteria.Freshman design projects are necessarily a gamble; students are asked to design a structure ormachine before taking any mechanical design courses, so the results are often strong in conceptbut weak in technical soundness. Clearly, juniors or seniors would have developed betterdesigns. However, by exposing freshmen to a design problem early in their academic careers
