areas that thecapstone team and their peers had faced when taking the control systems course; namelyabstractness and continuity. As mentioned before, the architecture of the education tool features anoverarching real-world example of a system the student user is hoping to control. The real-worldexamples ultimately used in the tool are reflective of the engineering concentrations of the capstoneteam. The biomedical track used an example of controlling the glucose level within a human body;and the mechanical track used an example of controlling car speed. Figure 1.

SL should have real service. Theactivities which students perform meet a real needfor a community.4 SL also has real educationalbenefits. The choice of service used in the learningshould have particular educational objectives inmind. If a SL activity meets a community need butdoes not provide any meaningful experientialeducation for a student, it is useful service, but itdoes not rate high in learning. If the activity hasextended learning opportunities but the serviceprovided is not something that a real communityneeds, then it is educational, but the service is

San Angelo, Texas 1. Background Parking is one of the most contested resources on university campuses. Typically, parkingspaces close to classrooms and administration buildings experience deficits in parking that oftenresult in later arrivals being denied parking at their preferred locations. A challenge in parkingspace allocation is making sure there are equity considerations. Improving equity meansvulnerable users of the parking lot are identified, and the parking lot designed in such a way thatspecific users are not disadvantaged compared to other groups. This paper discusses lessonslearned about equity in designing parking lots during a faculty–mentored undergraduate researchcourse. The purpose of the study was to estimate future
