Rubrics have been developed to assess the proposal,interim report, final report and proposal as related to theengineering capstone project, to better assess theperformance of the students and provide feedback to thestudents. The presentation will outline how the rubricswere developed and highlight some the challenges thatarose in implementing them. In addition, the rubrics werestructured to address the majority of graduate attributesoutlined by the Canadian Engineering AccreditationBoard (CEAB). As such the rubrics assess studentperformance in the following graduate attributes: design,problem analysis, investigation, communication skills,impact of engineering on society and environment, andeconomics and project management. Through thelearning management system used at the SOE, the rubricdata can also be collected and reviewed as part of thegraduate attribute process that has become an importantcomponent of the CEAB accreditation process.Challenges in using the learning management system willalso be discussed.
