Curriculum Redesign: Concurrently Addressing Content Mastery and Development of Cognitive Abilities Conference Paper

abstract

• Design or redesign of undergraduate engineering curricula is a complex process. Curriculum redesign addresses both development of content mastery as well as development of cognitive abilities that are common across engineering disciplines. Concurrently addressing learning outcomes in both cognitive ability and content mastery presents a substantial challenge for faculty curriculum committees. This paper outlines a process and offers tools to facilitate curriculum redesign for student learning. 2010 IEEE.
