Jackson, Andrew; Godwin, Allison; Bartholomew, Scott; Mentzer, Nathan – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2022
Iteration and improvement are important attributes of design, tacitly indicating that failure is also a part of the process. There are different conceptions of failure in engineering contexts than in other academic settings. Therefore, for beginning designers, these failure experiences may be perceived as mishaps, lowering confidence or interest.…

Halls, Jonathan G.; Tomás, Carmen; Owen, John S.; Hawwash, Kamel – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
Over recent decades, literature on assessment in higher education has intensified generating a wealth of frameworks to inform practice. Generic frameworks for assessment practice are sometimes perceived as missing subject-specific considerations. This literature review proposes to: (a) map the current landscape of assessment in engineering…

Scott Thorne; Nathan Mentzer; Scott Bartholomew; Greg J. Strimel – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2024
In design courses, reviewing how others have solved design problems or completed projects is common practice and often encouraged by educators. Using student work as examples can provide context for assessment criteria and help students approach new design problems. While studies have explored the use of exemplars in various disciplines, little…
