identified during the first week was intentionally beyond the scope of the project, andsome was beyond the capabilities of the development team. Furthermore, due to the lack of students workingon such project, and also high enthusiasm of them (perhaps as a result of watching too many movies), therewere some requirements included (added by students through Q&A with the customer), that was nottechnically feasible even by very experience hardware and/or software professional. The bi-weekly meetingwith the customer provided the interns an opportunity to clarify their understanding of certain requirementsand also negotiate with the customer over requirements that they had discovered were unattainable with theavailable resources. Also, during these bi

tohave a better learning experience, some of the answers from the students include the following: “The lab instructions were very detailed until the end. However, the part where we had to graph the I and Q components of the signal was not clear. Lab procedures could be improved.” “Manual is too long. For pre-lab part, it does not clearly state what is expected from us, which makes us struggle much more than required to learn.” “Better introduction to LabVIEW and the USRP (is needed)”. “Since LabVIEW is new to many of us, it would be greatly helpful if the lab process were taken step-by-step. Perhaps we can start with an easy example, such as an AM Demodulator and understand what is happening in the process in

these sessions, the course instructors discussed the course objectives,expectations, topics to be covered, and the outline of the course. By learning about their coursesand meeting their professors in an informal environment, students could begin their courseworkwith more confidence and accurate expectations, aiding their overall performance in thesecourses. During the morning of the second day of camp, the chemical engineering upperclassmanheld an informal Q&A session regarding course scheduling to give the rising sophomoresfeedback and suggest a plan for the academic trajectory for the remainder of their college career.By developing this plan, camp attendees could begin to anticipate coursework necessary forpotential double-majors, minors

introductory PLC concepts are relatively easy to find3-5. There areseveral web sites that provide free PLC information such as book chapters, programs fordownload, and online Q&A3,6,7. The Grand Valley State Michigan Tech has a free downloadablee-book3, 8. However, tutorials that provide opportunities for practice with feedback are harder tofind, and tutorials that adapt practice and feedback to the needs of individual learners appear tobe non-existent. Some web sites provide ladder logic editors free downloads3, 9 however, not allof these editors simulate program execution. A non-web-based commercial software LogixPro,available for low cost, provides a good PLC simulation environment and comes with variousanimations for various processes, such as

The goal of demand generation strategies is to promote andincrease enrollment in computing-related career fields at higher education institutions inMontana. Although this is a work in progress, the outcomes of the Software Factory approach asit relates to K-12 students are demonstrable and have surpassed expectations. The high schoolstudents were excited about programming in the context of a real world setting, presented andwere the subject of a Q&A session at a graduate level seminar, produced a working prototype ofan Android application, and one of the participating students is now enrolled in computer scienceat Montana State University.
