摘要:The Canadian engineering accreditation board (CEAB) mandate tasked each engineering program to assess student outcomes in the form of graduate attributes and develop a data-informed continuous program improvement stemming from those assessments. Administering, collecting and organizing the breadth assessment data is an extensive process, typically centralized through the use of software tools such as learning management systems (LMS), content management systems (CMS), Assessment Platforms (AP) and Curriculum Planning & Mapping tools. These systems serve a variety of roles, ranging from course content delivery, e-learning, distance education, learning outcomes assessment, outcomes data management and learning outcomes analytics. Vendors have been developing various solutions to accommodate the shift towards outcomes based assessment as part of a continuous improvement process. This paper will continue where the original paper presented at CEEA 2013 left off. It will introduce the new classifications of tools, how well each tool aligns with the EGAD (Engineering Graduate Attribute Development) project 5-step process and compare and contrast software tools supporting outcomes based assessment as part of a continuous improvement process such as Chalk & Wire, Atlas Curriculum Mapping, Entrada, CoursePeer and other systems.
