encourage students to spend more time assessing how well they understand the material (10).The conventional single-answer MC question can mask a student’s knowledge state from boththemselves and the educator (11). These assessments provide binary or dichotomous feedback:students get the right answer and full credit or the wrong answer and no credit. Students with lowknowledge states who randomly guess on a four-answer-choice question have an expected scoreequal to 25% of the total points. If the students can eliminate one or two answer choice(s), theirexpected score moves towards 50% of the total points. The downside for guessing is earningzero point while the upside is getting full credit. The mutually exclusive and collectivelyexhaustive nature

Thus, it is possible that this larger dose ofcontent generally helped students identify with each discipline as a possible major/profession forthem. The second factor that might (also) explain this difference is that the campers in 2014attended all discipline-specific sessions, whereas students that attended the 2015 day camps self-selected into those days (disciplines) that they wanted to attend. Thus, it is possible that the 2015campers that attended each day had more self-identification with the discipline(s) associated withthe day(s) they chose to attend.

that are probably typical of many senior design programs. These included • A process that allowed some students to assume a large portion of the project system design while others minimized their contributions, resulting in variable learning, • A system that made it difficult to evaluate individual students’ work as a team member, • Inconsistent and sometimes untimely mentoring of technical design work because this occurred only as-requested by groups or after identification by another faculty member, also resulting in widely variable learning experiences, • A very heavy mentoring load for the year-long course instructor(s) that gave the course a reputation of being a highly undesirable assignment

If that were the case, some students might be better served by a more traditionalcourse offering that focuses more on standardized course learning objectives rather than open-ended student-driven learning. This last point is a serious consideration, and one I intend to studyin the future.
