International) and ABET2 (formerly known as the Accreditation Board for Engineering andTechnology) accreditations. Typically, program accreditation criteria typically contain a list ofstudent outcomes that range from five to ten objectives. These student outcomes are mapped toprogram educational objectives and to the curriculum. While additional accreditation criteriatypically relate to admissions requirements, student advising, faculty qualifications, andcomposition and structure of curricula, student outcomes are the primary focus of the workpresented here.At one Midwestern university, the graduate faculty in aviation and aerospace management beganassessment of its programs at multiple levels. This assessment process was undertaken as thefaculty

McDonald* Western Illinois University - Quad Cities Western Illinois University - Quad Cities sc-brooks@wiu.edu b-mcdonald2@wiu.eduAbstractEngineering analysis depends on modeling the physical world mathematically. In engineeringpractice, the models are often already developed, the solutions derived, and a computer programwritten to carry out the calculations. Practicing engineers are engaged in applying the answers;model development and the computer programming required to generate the answers is literallybought and

-direction from a student. Therefore, in online course environments, it is even moreimportant to provide support such as scaffolding of large assignments or giving studentsopportunities to reflect on their learning [10]. Intentional use of learning management system(LMS) tools and features can help students self-regulate their learning [11]–[13].This case study involves an undergraduate thermodynamics course in a mechanical engineeringcurriculum, typically taken in the first semester of the second year in the program. Theprerequisite course is calculus-based physics, and co-requisites include multivariate calculus and © American Society for Engineering Education, 2021 2021 ASEE Illinois-Indiana Section Conference Proceedings
