Using a Project Model for Assessment of CDIO skills Tomas Svensson, Svante Gunnarsson Linköping University Sweden June 8 2005
CDIO SKILLS • CDIO skills - Personal, interpersonal, and product and system building skills. • 2.X Personal and professional skills and attributes • 3.X Interpersonal skills: Teamwork and communication • 4.X Conceiving, designing, implementing and operating systems in the enterprise and societal context. • How do we assess the CDIO skills?
PROJECT MODEL • Three main reasons for using a project model in engineering education: • Tool for execution of projects • Project work under industry like conditions • A tool for assessment of various CDIO skills

ASSESSMENT IN THE BEFORE PHASE • Results: • 4.3.1 Setting system goals and requirements • 4.3.2 Defining function, concepts and architecture • 4.3.3 Development project management • 4.4.2 The design process phasing and requirements • Process: • 3.1.1 Forming effective teams • 3.1.2 Team operation • 3.1.3 Leadership • 3.1.5 Technical teaming • 3.2.3 Written communication • Assessment tools: • Requirement specification • Project and time plan • System drawing • Time and status reports
ASSESSMENT IN THE DURING PHASE • Results: • 4.4.1 The design process • 4.4.2 The design process phasing approaches • 4.4.3 Utilization of knowledge in design • 4.5.1 Designing the implementation process • 4.5.3-4.5.4 Implementation in hardware and software. • 4.5.5. Test, verification and validation • Process: • 3.1.2 Team operation • 3.2.3 Written communication • Assessment tools: • Design and test specification • Test protocol • Time and status reports • The technical result is checked against the requirement specification • Technical documentation
ASSESSMENT IN THE AFTER PHASE • Process: • 3.1.2 Team operation • 3.1.3 Team growth and evolution • 3.2.4 Electronic/Multimedia communication • 3.2.6 Oral presentation • Assessment tools: • Time and status reports • Presentation • Project reflection
CONCLUSIONS • The project model provides a structure for assessment of CDIO skills. • The model enables continuous assessment. • The model and assessment can be used at different levels of complexity.
