摘要:In Canada, engineering programs will soon have to show that: i. graduates possess specific attributes, ii. outcomes are assessed in their context, iii. results are used to improve the program. This paper presents a model to meet all three criteria, and provides curriculum control options to fulfil CEAB conditions. It defines proficiency levels and information flow, from stakeholders’ surveys to the fusion of data. Control modules, pre-graduation work experience and post-graduation reviews gather internal and external observations. Coverage of the CEAB attributes by the CDIO Syllabus is summarised. Its utility for meeting objectives about the 12 attributes is clarified. An XML tool upholds coherence between learning objectives and targeted proficiency levels. More than merely instructive, this model displays the characteristics of a convincing demonstration for the CEAB.
