520 |a This book considers the functions of assessment and its measurement in engineering education. Topics discussed include efforts toward alternative curriculum in engineering and advanced level exams for university entry in engineering science; investigations of what engineers do at work and their implications for assessment; the development of competency based assessment and its implications for engineering curricula; the impact of accrediting authorities on assessment, outcomes based assessment, taxonomies and assessment in mastery and personalized systems of instruction; student variability (e.g. intellectual development, emotional intelligence) and reflective practice; the assessment of communication, creativity, innovation, teamwork, and the role of projects in integrated learning; the implementation of outcomes based assessment, and the implications of two theories of competence for the design of the curriculum and its assessment. The book concludes by discussing assessment, moral purpose and social responsibility in the light of changes in the workforce, the role of educational institutions in preparation for industry, the need for lifelong education, novel approaches to assessment, and credentialing.
