Then students work in teamsto create a list on their flip charts of “all possible things they might measure” on the pennies asthey add the parameter to their scope. Many of the items on their list will either be included onthe calibration report or will be considered again when discussing the validated procedure thatwill be used and/or the uncertainty of their measurements.After inspecting the pennies, qualitative issues are often raised about how to uniquely identifyeach penny (since

Short answer and true-false questions will be included on thesequizzes and the type and difficulty of the question(s) presented during each short-quiz willparallel the type and difficulty of the questions presented on the pre-quiz to ensure parallel formreliability. As a result, the five short-answer questions on the short-quiz can be compared toparallel questions on the pre-quiz to assess comprehension (per lecture).

. Finally, it is shown that students see a value infinding an overlap between their personal interests and the material they cover in class. Byproviding students with a choice on lab projects it was found that a course can be made to bettercater to students interests than the average class they take in their first year(s) of college.Plans are currently being made to expand upon the results described in this paper. Specifically,the goal of this future work will be to examine the effect of choice on student learning andproject performance.References1 Edwards, R., & Recktenwald, G. (2010).
