Assessment must be cyclic, that is it must identify the current state of a course, identify a plan for improvement and then indicate whether or not that plan succeeded. Assessment must also be documented. Today's environment makes it possible to track a great deal of data on almost any aspect of a course, yet it takes time to convert that data into meaningful information. If too much data is collected, then time to do subsequent assessment is lost to sifting out relevant facts from collected data. With time at a premium, the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at USMA developed a document that captures key information in a format that is inherently cyclic. This document is called the Course Assessment and Proposal Report (CAPR). It was designed in August 1999 and was used for several courses during the academic year of 1999-2000. It has been expanded and is being used for all courses within the department for academic year 2000-2001. The format of the document is evolutionary in nature and will change over time to best suit the overall needs of the department. The Course Assessment and Proposal Report has five basic sections, and a series of annexes which provide detailed information. The various sections and annexes are designed such that they can be easily extracted from the CAPR and used to support a variety of other requirements.","PeriodicalId":371740,"journal":{"name":"30th Annual Frontiers in Education Conference.

Likewise, teaching students to work effectively in teams has become an important component of engineering education. However, evaluating individual student contributions to team development and performance has been difficult. The paper explores the use of peer ratings for evaluation of individual contributions to team performance. Peer ratings are susceptible to bias when, for example, team members either unfairly gang up on an unpopular individual or protect an undeserving student. Therefore, it would be helpful to know if some students provide more accurate ratings than others and what the characteristics of accurate raters might be. The study looked for predictors of rating accuracy by comparing how an individual rated their own team behavior with how their fellow team members rated them on those same behaviors. Specifically, we used the Team Developer instrument to obtain self-ratings and team ratings on a variety of team behaviors. The discrepancy between self and peer ratings provided a measurement of rating accuracy. We then compared rating accuracy with demographic and academic variables to determine possible predictors of rating accuracy. Our results showed a tendency toward self-enhancement in the ratings across all four behavioral dimensions. Limited support was demonstrated for higher rating accuracy in higher performing students and lower accuracy in lower performing students. Implications for student evaluation are discussed, along with limitations of the study and suggestions for future research.","PeriodicalId":371740,"journal":{"name":"30th Annual Frontiers in Education Conference.

The paper discusses the development of this highly flexible facility for collaborative research and education for high performance computing (HPC) science and engineering users. The leading edge site for ACCESS and the alliance is the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. ACCESS is staffed by NCSA. The paper discusses planning, designing and developing this innovative site, and meeting technological, aesthetic, spatial, and other challenges in setting up this multiple-use, multiple-partner center.

A combination of traditional and non-traditional teaching methods were used to: (1) maintain a base of common knowledge pertaining to the scientific/engineering mission among a highly diverse student population, and (2) allow students to focus on the knowledge and skills of most interest to them. This paper discusses the impact of this course and project on student motivation levels as measured by the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) and student focus groups. Initial results show that, even without academic \"rewards\", SPIRIT students demonstrated a consistently high level of motivation and enthusiasm for the project. In addition, first- and second-year students rated the SPIRIT project more motivating than a comparison course to a statistically significant extent. The impact of these results in terms of future curricular reform is also discussed.","PeriodicalId":371740,"journal":{"name":"30th Annual Frontiers in Education Conference.
