Those of us who teach as part of the engineering curriculumhave recognized for many years that if we do not measure what students are learning then wereally do not know what or how to teach. We believe that by measuring student learning, withvalid and robust instruments, we can adjust the curriculum and pedagogy to increase studentlearning.
