Much of the original and printed material which constitutes the history of graphic design is in danger of being lost. The efforts of libraries and museums to preserve this material can be enhanced by the use of interactive videodisc to record, and to facilitate access to and exploitation of, the contents of graphic design archives. At the Rochester Institute of Technology, a project which aims to create an ‘electronic museum’ alongside an extensive archive of graphic design has achieved the production of a prototype videodisc and of accompanying software. While the Rochester Archive is focussed on American graphic design of the 1930s to 1950s, an international network of graphic design collections, and of electronic databases, is envisaged.

Behavioral Influences

A formal two-loop learning outcomes assessment process has been evaluated in the mechanical engineering department at Rochester Institute of Technology. This initiative, originally called the Engineering Sciences Core Curriculum (ESCC), provided systematic course learning outcomes and assessment data of student performance in Statics, Mechanics, Dynamics, Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer. This paper reports detailed analyses with some important observations in the Statics-Dynamics sequence to determine obstacles in student performance. New data shows that students’ mastery of Dynamics is affected largely by incorrect interpretations and weak retention of fundamentals in Statics. Further evidence of students’ behavioral influences are discussed requiring a future focus in this area. This report completes the 5 year feedback loop designed to achieve the ESCC goals on the Statics-Dynamics sequence.
