This paper reports on three semesters ofexperience in teaching IP to undergraduate students at the University of Texas at El Paso. Thepaper presents the course’s context, content, delivery, and assessment, and discusses the ways inwhich the course has changed as a result of assessment.Course ContextThe University of Texas at El Paso is a public regional institution, enrolling 23,000 students, themajority of whom are Hispanic Americans. The university has a large College of Engineering,which includes a department of computer science, and, in the College of Liberal Arts, a highlysuccessful law

innovative solutions.30,31Experimenting has historically been core to engineering and engineering education, as is evidentby ABET’s learning outcome specifying that students should be able to “design and conductexperiments”.32 As a result, laboratory instruction has long been a staple of engineeringeducation. In Crismond and Adams’ (2012) Informed Design Teaching and Learning matrix, theability to conduct valid experiments was identified as a key design ability.33 From theperspective of engineering students, experimenting has been depicted as supplemental to andreinforcing of the general theory learned from lecture or a textbook.34 Therefore, the connectionbetween experimenting and innovation within engineering seems direct and pervasive.The

Fundamentally, Innovation Sandbox is a clubhouse where students acrossall majors and academic levels can meet to explore modern technology and apply it to extremelybroad topics. Any development beyond early exploration and play is better served in othercampus machine shops and laboratories
