recordedthroughout each semester were also considered. These grades were given by a group of peermentors responsible for helping to administer laboratory activities and grading logbooks. Somementors participated in the role for multiple semesters and were thus more experienced atassigning logbook grades, but there was additionally some turn-over each semester. Each of thethree or four mid-semester gradings focused both on quality of work (e.g., appropriate content,content clarity, and organization) and on general logbook proficiency (e.g., regular entries,quantity of documentation, and adequate reflection), and to a lesser degree on contentcorrectness. Since the logbook grades were performed by peers rather than experiencedengineering professors, lesser

We also describeways in which design instructors might incorporate concept maps into their teaching, andoffer suggestions for future research.MethodsParticipants were 51 (18 females, 33 males; 49 seniors, 2 juniors) students enrolled in ayearlong
