Themethods and materials required to implement this educational experience in environmentalengineering programs to meet ABET accreditation requirements are also presented. Preparationfor the project requires student teams (3-4 students) to develop a basic evaluation and samplingprotocol to test a potential indoor air pollution problem. Students identify a pollutant of concern,either a gas (CO, Cl, VOC, Radon, O3, etc.) or particulate matter, and identify a feasible and safelocation on campus for testing. Student teams are required to

Unless each student has their own development system, theyare limited on when and where they can work and this in turn limits the complexity of thedesigns that can be assigned.Soft: Configurable soft cores introduce an additional level of testing since the hardware that hasbeen implemented in the programmable device has to first be verified before softwaredevelopment can begin.

The application of engineering skills to community serviceprojects distinguishes service learning from the typical internships, co-ops and fellowships thatstudents frequently seek.
