Engineering - Other (59)The project addresses an important national need: evaluating effectiveness of engineering education innovations and research. The goal is to build an annotated inventory of evaluation tools for determining the effectiveness of projects targeted at improving engineering education and student retention along the engineering pipeline. An experienced team of engineering education, assessment and evaluation professionals will conduct an extensive search for existing evaluation tools and document their usefulness for the engineering education research and development community. Recognized national experts in engineering education and evaluation will review and contribute to the evaluation of tools and the resulting inventory. Products of this work include: (1) a catalog of evaluation tools characterized by outcomes addressed, instrument stage of development, and instrument usability, (2) a prioritized list of evaluation tool gaps needing to be addressed to support engineering course, curriculum, and laboratory improvement, (3) a journal publication presenting the methodology and results of the evaluation tools inventory, (4) a national workshop to refine and disseminate results and to promote needed evaluation tools development, and (5) a strategy for broad dissemination of findings and evaluation tools

工程-其他（59）该项目解决了一个重要的国家需求：评估工程教育创新和研究的有效性。我们的目标是建立一个评价工具的注释清单，以确定针对改善工程教育和学生保留沿着工程管道的项目的有效性。一个经验丰富的工程教育、评估和评价专业人员团队将对现有的评价工具进行广泛的搜索，并记录它们对工程教育研究和开发社区的有用性。工程教育和评估方面的公认国家专家将审查并促进对工具和由此产生的清单的评估。这项工作的成果包括：（1）评价工具的目录，其特征在于所处理的结果、仪器开发阶段和仪器可用性，（2）需要处理以支持工程课程、课程和实验室改进的评价工具差距的优先列表，（3）呈现评价工具清单的方法和结果的期刊出版物，（4）举办一次国家讲习班，以完善和传播成果，并促进开发所需的评价工具;（5）制定一项广泛传播调查结果和评价工具的战略
