The presentation, "Towards Liberal Education Assessment In Engineering And Technology Programs," was based on an article published in the Journal of College Teaching and Learning (TLC) by Tom Eppes, Ivana Milanovic and H. Frederick Sweitzer. The presentation described the planning and actions taken to meet new accreditation requirements in University of Hartford engineering and technology programs. A framework targeting the best opportunities to measure student achievement within core courses was discussed as well as recent pilot results.
