Though some research has found students participating in student-specificactivities are more committed to their institution and education, there is no direct researchlinking engineering organizations with student success. Marjorie Nadler discussed benefits students may experience as a result ofparticipation in student led organizations. These benefits include social and leadershipskills, improvements in academic achievement, better decision-making skills, improvedself confidence, relevance of course topics and curriculum, and improved performancebeyond college (Nadler, 1997).

The efficacy of active learningactivities2 and cooperative learning strategies3-5 has been demonstrated convincingly in theliterature.So how should grading being conducted, in light of the research showing the efficacy of activeand cooperative learning? We can broadly divide grading strategies into two types ofassessments: formative and summative.

An example to this effect follows: "Ultimately, network access will provide students with instantaccess to virtually any research document currently published, as well as a convenient mechanism for colla-borating with each other on major projects.

In manycases, educators benefited from the open-ended nature of the capstone senior design course andimplemented self-directed learning modules to introduce students to the concept of lifelonglearning.6As the application areas of self-directed lifelong learning expanded, researchers started to lookinto the disposition, characteristics and behaviors of the self-directed learners. When examined,it was seen that the people who successfully employ lifelong learning are motivated andengaged.7 Continuous lifelong learning needs to be lifelong, life wide, voluntary and self-motivated.8 The difference between self

Given thepositive energy and predisposition to action that these concepts connote, they do notnecessarily fit well into established, traditional models of classroom instruction andinteraction. The challenge for educators is to develop and employ a method for teachingthese concepts in a manner that is consistent with the essence that the concepts share.This paper proposes that the process of teaching creativity, innovation, and change toengineering students in a university setting must itself be
