Abstract :
This paper describes the process of developing two survey instruments student and faculty versions to assess the extent to which engineering students are engaged in identified "best instructional practices" in engineering education and achieving certain learning outcomes desired of engineering graduates. Drafts of the survey instruments will be completed by July 2005 and piloted at a single institution in spring 2006. At the conclusion of this project, CASEE intends to make the survey instruments available for use by engineering colleges nationwide
