An assessment method to evaluate team project based engineering design

Team based project evaluation is a main trend in engineering education. Many instructors have felt that it is not easy to harmonize creativity evaluation and outcome assessment. We collected many creativity assessment elements and classified them into three categories according to brainstorming, building, and demonstration phases. Then we rearranged these elements into creative process of a team project, and suggested assessment elements and traits considering process and outcome based assessment for an engineering design course. Finally we proposed rubrics of fair, good, and excellent level too.
