Abstract :
Assessment of student performance in capstone engineering design is vital to student learning and to program accreditation and improvement. Performances important to capstone design courses include studentspsila growth in personal capacity for design, development of teamwork, development of design processes, and delivery of solution assets. The Transferable Integrated Design Engineering Education (TIDEE) consortium is creating and testing a capstone design assessment system to measure these student performances and provide rapid personalized feedback. Broad adoption of this assessment system requires ease of use by both students and instructors. This paper describes design features of a Web-based implementation of the TIDEE capstone design assessment system.
