Most CL tasks are structured to be completed within one class period,and can be handled by groups with 2-4 members. Smaller groups are both more efficient and moreeffective than larger groups in dealing with small-scaled tasks and projects. For a thoroughcomparative study on various types of learning in small groups, which include collaborativelearning, cooperative learning and problem-based learning, see Davidson and Major (2014) 17.We adopt a mixture of team-based and cooperative learning strategies to best suit our pedagogicalneeds.

We provide the students witha broad goal shown in Table 1 and allow them to brainstorm ideas to pursue. Our students breakinto groups to make initial prototypes (column 3 of table 1) of a product they would like topursue for the summer. The students then assess the various prototypes as a group advocatingfor both their design and another groups’ design. This competitive process ends with the classvoting as a whole on which project will go forward. We then assign a project lead from amongthe students to carry the

Changes made tothe approach include a more detailed rater calibration session and a significant increase in thenumber of raters over a previous cases study which used the same rubric.

It is difficult to maintain acomplete inventory for the lab. In addition, because these input devices are customized for asmall and specialized market, they are relatively expensive. For example, a GPS module or atouch sensor module costs more than many processor boards. An Android device (a phone or a tablet) is a miniature computer with a touch screen and anarray of sensors.
