Abstract

The Canadian engineering accreditationboard (CEAB) mandate tasked each engineering programto assess student outcomes in the form of graduateattributes and develop a data-informed continuousprogram improvement stemming from those assessments.Administering, collecting and organizing the breadthassessment data is an extensive process, typicallycentralized through the use of software tools such aslearning management systems (LMS), contentmanagement systems (CMS), Assessment Platforms (AP)and Curriculum Planning & Mapping tools. Thesesystems serve a variety of roles, ranging from coursecontent delivery, e-learning, distance education, learningoutcomes assessment, outcomes data management andlearning outcomes analytics. Vendors have beendeveloping various solutions to accommodate the shifttowards outcomes based assessment as part of acontinuous improvement process.This paper will continue from the first and secondpapers presented at previous CEEA meetings. It willgauge how well each tool aligns with the EGAD(Engineering Graduate Attribute Development) project 5-step process and compare and contrast software toolssupporting outcomes based assessment as part of acontinuous improvement process.
