Abstract
For capstone design experiences, the course outcomes, assessment strategies, and outcome remediation strategies are significantly different than those that might typically be utilized in lower-division "content" courses. This paper describes the instruments developed for a digital systems senior project course that provide a mechanism for systematic, quantitative evaluation of outcomes appropriate for capstone design experiences. Data tracking the performance of these instruments over several trials are presented
