The winning team had theirnames placed on a departmental plaque. The new course design has been popular. However, itis unclear if the success of the new course is based on the real nature of the projects with clientinvolvement or the competition itself. Within an Information Technology course at JuniataCollege, a mention of informal competition between student teams working on different projectswas noted to be fostered by students posting their progress toward project milestones on a white-board that was visible to all of the teams within the course.9Alternatively, many capstone courses are

The instructor, as a part of the course grade, evaluatescourse-level portfolios. Department faculty and members of the department’s external advisoryboard evaluate graduation portfolios.Most of the curricular and course-content changes to support the change from the originalprogram outcomes to the new program outcomes were made as a result of potential lack ofeducational development relative to one or more of the new outcomes.

Building on the success of the initial CEED programs, theprojected increase was to serve 400 students with the creation of two new peer-mentoringprograms, General Undergraduate Engineering Support Teams (GUEST) and Network forEngineering Transfer Students (NETS).

Shelving space was at apremium to the point that some crisis-based rationale included weeding titles that were “thicker”or whose volume set size took up large amounts of shelf space.10 In most situations, electronicacquisitions and auxiliary storage schemes have provided enough shelf space relief that removalfor size rather than content is less of an issue.
