    abstract = {Evaluation of laboratory experiences of engineering and engineering technology students do not
include theassessment of psychomotor domain due to lack of suitable measuring tool. This is despite the
importance of this domain in engineering and engineering technology courses. Current assessment practices
using reports and test for assessing laboratory experiences in engineering technology courses can only assess
student’s achievement in the cognitive domain. A new assessment method is needed to assess that elusive
component of laboratory experiences in engineering technology referred to by most people as "hands-on
practical experience". Existing techniques for measuring psychomotor skills that have emerged from attempts
to improve selection in recruitment processes may provide a potentially useful tool for such a purpose. The aim
of this study is to develop ways to test changes in practical experience in order to assess unintentional learning
related to classic psychomotor skills in engineering technology laboratory classes. The methodology used to
develop the instrument is described and empirical data supporting its validity are presented.}
