Ultimately, the students identified the vehicle desired speed, steeringcontroller gains, and path waypoints as key variables to the competition. They also determinedthat they would need to write some kind of perception module to identify stop signs and stoplights and control the car to apply the brakes. The students

constructive alignment between the learningobjectives and the proposed assessment. Meaning, the assessment is a measurable activity thatallows students to complete the learning objective. Additionally, we gear our assessments oflearning objectives 1-3 and learning objectives 7-9 as authentic performance tasks i.e. tasks that aresearcher may do in real-life.To aid us, we use assessment worksheets as a tool to align the assessments with theircorresponding learning objective(s). On the assessment worksheet, we list the evidence oflearning for that learning objective, what constitutes acceptable performance, and task that wewill use to measure progress towards that learning objective. For example, Table 2 shows theassessment worksheet for the first
