The Engineering Design Log: A Digital Design Journal Facilitating Learning and Assessment (RTP)

This 36-page paper, provided by the Georgia Institute of Technology, discusses an electronic Engineering Design Process Log (EDP). This log is intended to guide the engineering design process, including documentation and assessment. This paper provides "a detailed description of the EDP log and rubrics for middle and high school classrooms, along with student data and artifacts." Also included is a "comparison of the EDP log with other engineering notebook paradigms."

Sections of this paper include: Abstract, Introduction, Literature Survey: Engineering Design Notebooks, Engineering Design Process Log Description, Data Sources, Teachers' Perspectives on EDP Log, EDP Log Rubric Results & Sample Artifacts; Revisions and Curricular Impacts, Conclusions and Future Work, and more.
