THE ENGINEERING NOTEBOOK
The Engineering Notebook is folder/binder which students keep all their bellwork, sketching, handouts, and notes. It is used to keep all course paperwork together, organized, and available for assessment. Regular Minor assessments will be taken. A Major assessment will also be taken. The preferred notebook should be a 1/2 to 1-inch "Presentation" 3-ring hard binder (any color) with pockets, five dividers, college rule paper, and 1/4" quadrille graph paper. Students are encouraged to keep their GTT notebook for future classes of GTT.
