Complicated Task

The management of reindeer ranges is a complicated task as indicated both by the complexity of the normative analyses required and the mismanagement observed in real and laboratory settings. The present report is a user's manual to a decision-tool that attempts to strike a balance between complex normative analyses and practical decision-making. A simulator is provided to give decision-makers experience with the tool and to build intuition for strategies. Several cases are used to illustrate the use of the decision-tool and to demonstrate how even scarce and imprecise data can yield important insights. The project has been financed by "Nordisk ministerråd" ("Nordic Council of Ministers") under the program "Nordiska miljöstrategin för jord- och skogsbruk 1996-1999" ("Nordic Environmental Strategies for Agriculture and Forestry 1996-1999"). It was initiated and administered by "Nordisk organ for reinforskning" (NOR) ("Nordic Council for Reindeer Research").

Capstone Project

Rubrics have been developed to assess the proposal,interim report, final report and proposal as related to theengineering capstone project, to better assess theperformance of the students and provide feedback to thestudents. The presentation will outline how the rubricswere developed and highlight some the challenges thatarose in implementing them. In addition, the rubrics werestructured to address the majority of graduate attributesoutlined by the Canadian Engineering AccreditationBoard (CEAB). As such the rubrics assess studentperformance in the following graduate attributes: design,problem analysis, investigation, communication skills,impact of engineering on society and environment, andeconomics and project management. Through thelearning management system used at the SOE, the rubricdata can also be collected and reviewed as part of thegraduate attribute process that has become an importantcomponent of the CEAB accreditation process.Challenges in using the learning management system willalso be discussed.
