Workshop - capstone engineering design assessment workshop

This workshop is based on assessments developed under a National Science Foundation grant to create versatile assessments for capstone engineering design courses. It will prepare capstone design instructors to adopt and implement these assessments for enhancing and documenting student achievement in their courses. The workshop will interoduce participants to a learner and solution development model for design achievement and to performance criteria used to target achievement. Seven assessments exercises will be presented, along with scoring rubrics for establishing performance levels. Participants will explore assessment instruments and sample student work to learn the assessment implementation and interpretation process. Each participant will receive a set of assessment instruments and scoring rubrics for their use.
