this course. With regard to this table, it is importantto note that the WPI academic schedule is based on students taking four terms in an academicyear, with a fifth (optional) summer term. Each term is seven weeks long and three full timecourses/term constitute a full (undergraduate) load. The SE ES capstone course is offered in thefirst term of the year and it is expected that students will take this course concurrent with startingtheir capstone project (MQP but could also be the IQP). A one-term course typically meets fourtimes/week and courses that have laboratory sessions (not this course) also layer in a weekly labsection. A simple calculation shows that as a result of this course/term structure, a typical classwill meet 28 times/term

The authenticinvolvement activities expose the student to real situations with totally open-endedprojects, although the faculty may influence the selection of the situations and setperformance criteria to assure that positive learning objectives are met. Authenticinvolvements use outside clients while simulations use experimental laboratories,guided design, or case studies. In an article in 2006, Davis et al.

In real-world scenarios, such as engineering design, much of the work isperformed by groups of individuals interacting with each other, mediated by tools and artifacts;thus, an adequate account of the moral judgments in engineering requires that we examine thegroup as the appropriate unit of analysis, not individuals considering hypothetical or historicalcases by themselves in the classroom or laboratory. Furthermore, we move from analyzing theindividual, where we can really only see the input and output of the cognitive process and haveto infer the structure of

In this paper, we describe a project-based computer engineering curriculum, whichcomplements more traditional lectures and laboratory courses. We compare this curriculum withcurricula from other small universities in the US. We show how our curriculum is in agreementwith a mixed-mode approach that combines projects with traditional techniques. An assessmentof student outcomes is presented and successes and limitations are discussed.Critical issues in engineering educationIn 2003, Mills and Treagust2 summarized the critical issues in engineering education asidentified by
