This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will develop a tool to help engineering faculty design and administer assessments of engineering education. The tool will also assist in the management of assessment data to support instructional decisions for individual students, decisions on courses and programs, and accreditation decisions through the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). The assembled team for this project includes experts in assessment and software commercialization who will conduct the research necessary to determine the technical and commercial feasibility of the technology. The combination of expertise in making assessment-based decisions with experienced computer programming talent produces a team that has the experience and resources necessary to develop an expert system.The broader impacts of this project include the following: 1) by making assessment more manageable, better assessment efforts will be undertaken; 2) with better assessment of student learning, the quality of the learning experiences should improve; 3) as the quality of learning experiences improves in engineering education, so too should the abilities of engineering graduates; and 4) as other disciplines witness the successes associated with this innovative educational tool, it can serve as a model for similar efforts in other disciplines. This tool will facilitate better program planning by assisting with the management of critical data, making evident to programs the types of data that might be helpful and retrieving data for internal and external use.

这项小型企业创新研究（SBIR）I阶段项目将开发一种工具，以帮助工程教师设计和管理工程教育评估。 该工具还将协助管理评估数据，以支持个人学生的教学决策，课程和课程的决策以及通过认证工程和技术认证委员会（ABET）的认证决策。 该项目的组装团队包括评估和软件商业化专家，他们将进行确定技术的技术和商业可行性所必需的研究。 在做出基于评估的决策与经验丰富的计算机编程人才方面的专业知识的结合在一起是一支具有开发专家系统所需的经验和资源的团队。该项目的更广泛影响包括以下内容：1）通过使评估更易于管理，将进行更好的评估工作； 2）通过更好地评估学生学习，学习经验的质量应提高； 3）随着学习经验的质量在工程教育方面有所提高，工程毕业生的能力也应； 4）正如其他学科见证了与这种创新的教育工具相关的成功，它可以作为其他学科类似努力的典范。 该工具将通过协助管理关键数据来促进更好的计划计划，从而使程序可以证明可能有帮助的数据类型，并检索数据内和外部使用的数据。
