The course-level learning objectives werebroken down further into descriptions of specific concepts to be learned and competencies to beacquired. Thus, a complete concept map addressing the designated competencies was developed.This constitutes the blueprint for developing assessment items. The corresponding curriculumadaptations were implemented only over a 12 months period. In the 12 months time period threecourses were offered as planned. They are AEC 132, AEC 320, and IET 350. An assessmentinstrument was developed to check students’ understanding for these courses. The results of theassessments were analyzed and presented in the following

validate this core by better understanding how experts organize their knowledge ofdigital logic. For example, we could interview several digital logic instructors and ask them tocreate their own concept maps of the subject. Alternatively, we could replicate previousknowledge organizations studies and ask faculty and students to organize problems based ontheir similarity of solutions17. This problem organization can help reveal experts’ tacitknowledge structures. As we learn more about how experts of digital logic organize theirknowledge, we can build a stronger case for the core conceptual framework of digital logic. Page 25.712.12References1

Is the development and implementation of project materials, recruitment strategies, training, and course activities well designed and integrated into the project’s goals? 2.) How do participants experience the project? 3.) What is the impact of the project on families, undergraduate engineering students?Data were gathered using surveys, interviews, concept mapping, and programobservations.

encourage faculty to view the ABET processas an opportunity to explore teaching and learning and consider possible changes to theirteaching. Via this process, center personnel could work with faculty to identify assessment toolsthat could drive this change (e.g., surveys, concept maps, portfolios, etc.). The center could alsobring in educational/assessment experts who could work with interested faculty to develop newapproaches of collecting assessment data and to change their teaching style based on this data.Centers could become more directly involved in helping faculty become adept at dealing with theassessment process. For example, they could conduct workshops and short programs onassessment followed by training and materials for faculty

By the end of the activity, teachers became more aware of thecognitive role of graphics (e.g., Venn diagrams, concept maps, and KWL and tables) along withtraditional data driven graphics (e.g., pie charts and bar charts). During this session, the researchteam began to seed ideas about student abstract reasoning on concepts surrounding the“invisible” (Figure 3).Figure 3: Discussion about the invisible world The direct observable world really dominates the graphics in this area right here.

. InEnglish classes, it is not uncommon for students to practice design as brainstorm-ing. In this context, it is generatingnovel ideas. Student theories of design also come from media images of designed products, from fashion tocosmetics to cars. Design here is most often depicted as the creation of consumer products.In our classes, we have collected learner concept maps of design as a source of data for developing ourunderstanding of learner misconceptions. The directions ask them to draw a representation of the design processusing the words they associate with design. We have found that these renderings of design are prophetic inanticipating the kinds of behaviors we have seen students engage in. Two particularly insightful ones are

In 2002 handouts were replaced withweb pages with screen captures of key steps in the assignment. Streaming video demonstrationsreplaced these static web pages in 2007. As part of a parallel evaluation activity, faculty havebeen identifying key concepts that need to be covered in the course based on textbook conceptsand industry practice and creating a formal inventory of how these concepts map to courseinstructional resources.It is possible that some might consider these skills rather than concepts.
