research design approach to evaluate theeffectiveness of LLMs in assessing the LOs from STEM courses using the SMART framework.Data CollectionWe collected 30 LOs from a publicly available syllabus of courses. The selection criteria for theLOs were that they belong to a STEM course, and the syllabus should have a separate section forlearning objectives. The collected learning objectives cover programming, engineering design,and database systems courses.Evaluation CriteriaWe used the SMART as the criteria to evaluate the quality of LOs, which both the LLM modeland experts used. The SMART rubric is an evaluation criterion that assesses learning objectivesbased on five key criteria. Specific: The objective should clearly describe what students can

taught and/or studied online during the transition toonline learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study applied both qualitative and critical research methods focusing on dialogicinquiry and praxis through a connection between action and reflection [31]. Through purposivesampling, where researches select participants to meet specific needs [12], I also sought facultymembers to cover different strata - identifying whether specific characteristics of the individualparticipants are adequately represented albeit in a smaller sample [32]. This is why the studytargeted faculty members within the Liberal Education program as it currently houses the mostdiverse courses within both Arts and Sciences. This program is also relatively new

Column 4 shows the prompts level in Jamieson’s LLM prompttaxonomy presented earlier.For the letter grade mapping the instructor uses in his syllabus, we can say that the LLM forassessments would score a letter grade of a “C” for the artifacts it generates. Of note, exams I andII are done live in the classroom, but all the activities are done in the lab or out of class.5 DiscussionSo far, we have specified a method for benchmarking engineering courses for LLM chatbots. Ingeneral, we believe that engineering

As students commented, “it took a syllabus type approach and… mimickedthe Electrical and Computer Engineering degree that we all go through here.” Therefore, muchcredit was attributed to MetavoltVR for its course relevancy and coursework supplementationconsiderations. Students regarded “the point of this app is also to further grasp students’attention, to interest them beyond just the course material,” and they saw a potential that“instead of teachers just lecturing from
