that students were asked to design a Rube Goldberg machine thatconducts 90+ steps to complete a simple task. The insights they found through the use of theRube Goldberg machine will hopefully be a starting point for students to hone their design,communication, and teamwork skills such that they can design, communicate, and work onteams effectively in their Senior Capstone and beyond.References1.

At recent engineering educationconferences (e.g. Best Assessment Processes in Engineering Education Symposiums, ASEE, FIE)the number of evolving approaches for evaluating engineering programs, as well asmethodologies for measuring various student outcomes is growing more rich. Yet, severaltroublesome issues still remain. First, most of these “assessment” methods had not been fullyevaluated. Second, many focus on final products via performance appraisals particular to theoutcome(s) using rubrics as the assessment tool. Third, many engineering administrators stillvoiced concerns about the costs associated with organizing, implementing and maintaining aneffective assessment program, given limited resources of time, people (i.e. raters), and

. UPS is known for having a very low turnover rate. Thewaiting list to become a driver for the company is years long because employees do not leave thecompany. This is believed to be a consequence of the relationships between employees, andemployees and employers. These good relationships developed because UPS has a horizontalhierarchy management system versus a vertical one. The horizontal system allows employees tofeel like everyone they work with is a peer. Where a vertical hierarchy fosters suspicion anddistrust, a horizontal system fosters trust and interaction. The social capital developed under thismanagement system is very strong and has resulted in happy employees.In 1988, James S. Coleman5 became the first researcher to tie social

Though the Learning Manager would not be the primary contact s/he wouldbe available to make major decisions required to promote student success within the course. TheContent Integrator would be the student’s direct point of contact. Students concerned with coursematerials, concept chunks or assignments would contact the Content Integrator.
