Despite these studies, it isstill difficult for educators to implement authentic summative assessments for first-year studentsin design classrooms. Thus, many educators employ more authentic tasks for formativeassessments and projects, but not for summative assessment.While assessing students’ engineering design process, first year engineering students are alsodeveloping the affective and regulatory competencies required for engineering success, such asself-efficacy in design, in math, and in engineering overall.
