  1. Best Practices In DesignOutcomes Of A Survey P. H. King, PhD, PEJoan Walker, PhDVanderbilt University

  2. Design Survey, 13 respondents, late 2003 • How many credit hours & terms – design course • Which measures are required, as needed, not needed • Grading examples? • Suggested additions re ABET & design?

  3. Course Structure: Credits • 3 + 3 5 programs • 3 3 programs • 2 + 3 1 program • 2 + 2 1 program • 1 + 2 1 program • 3 to 6 1 program (variable credit) • 8 1 program (over 6 terms)

  7. Suggested Additions to List • Manuscript ready for journal publication • K-12 outreach presentation of project • Proof of concept prior to design • Aesthetic considerations • Timeline • System Specification • Peer review

  8. Suggested Additions To List (If ABET) • Teamwork & Leadership (2) • Peer & Self Evaluations • Design Controls • Engineering Analysis (FEM) • Innovation • Quality Controls • Design of Experiments

  9. Grading Schemes Collected: • Course Grading Scheme 7 • Peer Review 2 • Design Notebook 1 • Oral Report 1 • Design Report 2 • Poster Judging 1 • Proposal Grading 1

  10. Oral Grading Sheet - Marquette Presentation Skills/Organization: (30 pts) Were members of group professional in appearance? 5 points Were speakers adequately prepared for presentation and questions? 10 pts Was presentation clear and understandable? 10 pts Were visual aids sufficient in numbers and properly used? 5 pts Technical Content of Presentation: (30 pts) Did group demonstrate sufficient technical understanding and base concept(s) on sound engineering principles? 15 pts Did prototype/key deliverable adequately communicate proposed concept? 15 pts

  11. Oral Grading Sheet Continued Salability: (40 pts) Was audience convinced that: proposed concept will meet customer needs? _______(15) proposed concept is technically feasible? _______(10) proposed concept is economically viable? _______(10) group can complete project by May 2004? _______(5) TOTAL _______(100) + comments to speaker … + comments to course coordinator …
