WPI MQP Outcomes Data Sheet
To be completed by ECE MQP Advisors at the end of their project

A note on how your responses will be used: Your responses to the questions here will be emailed to Prof. Nicoletti. They will not be made available to students or project sponsors -- so, if you wish to do this, simply print the pages before clicking the 'submit' button. Prof. Nicoletti will be comparing responses obtained from advisors, students, and project sponsors -- and the biennial MQP review committee -- and sharing the results with the ECE faculty as part of our assessment program.

I. GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION

REQUIRED INFORMATION:
MQP Code: Use 2-3 lower case letters, followed by a hyphen, followed by 4 characters, using numbers or lower cases letters
Note: the MQP code was provided to you in the email from Prof. Nicoletti, along with the last names of Student 1, Student 2, etc.
Was this project finished by B01? Yes No
If no: 1. When do you think/know it was/will be finished?
2. Skip to the bottom of this page and submit the form now.
Please enter the students' last names below in alphabetical order -- including first names only if they are needed to differentiate between students. This ordering will be used later in this form when reporting individual student achievements.

II. SPECIFIC PROJECT OUTCOMES

You are now asked to make TWO assessments, First, please indicate the extent to which each of the following possible outcomes was an aspect (or could have been an aspect) of the project due to the nature of the topic, on a scale of
0 not at all
1 to a minimal extent
2 somewhat
3 to a significant extent
4 to a very large extent

Then, for any outcome that was an aspect of the project to a significant (3) or very large (4) extent, assess the level of accomplishment that the student(s) demonstrated in this area, on a scale of

0 did not complete the work for this criterion, or demonstrated severe misconceptions about the important concepts; made many critical errors
1 displayed an incomplete understanding of the important concepts and had some notable misconceptions; made a number of errors when performing important strategies or skills but completed a rough approximation of them
2 applied strategy or concepts without significant errors
3 demonstrated a complete and accurate understanding of the important concepts
4 application of strategy or concept displayed originality or excellence that exceeded expectations

Note: you are certainly free to give the same level of achievement for all team members.

Only if extent is 3 or 4
See information from Nicoletti or the names that you've entered above in this form for who Student1 is, etc.

III. GROWTH IN STUDENT ABILITIES

It is possible that the final project results do not always indicate the growth of the students' skills and abilities during the course of the project. (For example, even if the writing in the final report is not excellent, perhaps at the start of the project it was horrendous.) Please indicate your assessment of the students' growth in the following areas using a scale:
na not applicable (not a part of the project at all)
0 no change
1 marginal improvement
2 some improvement
3 substantial improvement
4 no improvement noticed because the student already had excellent skills
Student1
(0 to 4)		 Student2
(0 to 4)		 Student3
(0 to 4)		 Student4
(0 to 4)
1. Analytical abilities
2. Experimental skills
3. Computational skills
4. Design abilities
5. Written communication skills
6. Oral communication skills
7. Teamwork skills
8. Professionalism
9. Independence (ability to learn on their own)
