The impetus for this shift has come largely from professionalsocieties and sources of accreditation (such as ABET) in response to numerous high profileengineering failures that have

HuntTo prepare for the scavenger hunt, the instructor will need to prepare several small programs toserve as clues. The output of each program is the location of the next clue. Before class begins,the instructor “hides” the clues at the various locations. Additionally, the instructor needs to putup error signs at locations included as wrong answers or for answers generated by commonmistakes by the students (see Figure 1). The approximate prep time for this activity is about onehour (writing the code and printing the clues takes 30-40 minutes and 20-30 minutes to set up theclues).The scavenger hunt begins in the classroom (or an agreed-upon location).

Of the 11 Criterion3 program outcomes, these four are notoriously difficult to document. In large part, this isbecause these require synthesis and higher order thinking. However, these program outcomes lend themselves very well to a case studies approach.Case studies require students to synthesize the facts and engineering principles they havelearned, and combine them with their broader education in the arts, humanities, and sciences.These intellectual merits, on a small scale, have been demonstrated so far with the

There is aneed to reliably capture student learning about complex and dynamic socio-technical systemswithout privileging an assessment tool that a priori evaluates “more is better”. With that in mind this manuscript addresses three key issues in this area. The firstobjective, efficiency, is to interrogate the use of concept maps to capture student learning aboutthe complexity of socio-technical systems in large-scale engineering programs where a review ofeach individual map would require extensive time investments. Conducting the conceptmapping exercise and analysis strategy are impacted under this objective. This leads to thesecond objective, methodological development, which assesses how complexity can be evaluatedin

It became apparent that a large part of the project is not crunching numbers and taking measurements, but instead communicating with the customer (the community). This communications is key because the goal is to design a project that works for them. In order for it to “work,” the project must meet several criteria. It must be user friendly, easy to maintain, feasible to construct, and affordable. These
