Home » Items » Assessment Guide for Engineering Design Projects
Item description
Whenever you use active and project-based learning approaches, assessment becomes more challenging. When you intentionally focus on skills such as creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking, in addition to curricular content, developing a meaningful way to assess learning may seem close to impossible. Couple all of that with the disconnect between forward-thinking teaching and high-stakes, standardized testing programs and it can easily deflate the atmosphere in any room of once enthusiastic educators. This guide is meant to walk you through what you need to keep in mind when developing assessments for Engineering Design projects and other forms of project-based learning (PBL). It contains suggestions for key points for formative and summative assessments, along with sample rubrics and a wide range of resources.
