The lectures were punctuated by multiple-choice conceptual questions or open-endedquestions to test students’ understanding of the material. In the multiple-choice conceptualquestions, often the distracters (incorrect responses) reflect typical student misconceptions.These questions are good indicators of students’ conceptual understanding, especially infundamental courses. The open-ended questions provide the senior-level students an opportunityto improve their critical thinking

Similar forms are used for other upper levelcourses including senior project. The peer evaluation is normally administered the first time in themiddle of the semester. At that time it allows the instructor to assess the team culture on an indi-vidual basis, and it allows the students to reflectively consider the team. The second and last timethe peer evaluation is used is at the conclusion of the project. These are used to adjust individualstudent grades.As expect, the numerical values on the form are the least important indicator.

Consequently ,almost every team found that they were unable to negotiate the ramp when it was placedin the game area a day and a half before the competition.These are all areas that need to be addressed in future design activities and the lessonslearned from this project are being reviewed as the technology education curriculum isrevised to reflect a more analytically based pre-engineering focus.

We ask each teacher toprovide comments and reactions on the use of the ETK in their class, and to suggest waysto improve it. We also ask whether any problems might arise in using the ETK.
