ethics and effects of students’ useof solution manuals on their performance during exams [1-6]. One study surveyed the facultyand students in a large mechanical engineering department to seek their perspectives on theethics and the educational values of employing solution manuals in solving textbook homeworkassignments. Many instructors had ethical concerns regarding the students’ use of solutionmanuals, while many students did not consider the use of solution manuals as scholasticdishonesty [1]. Few studies have shown that the use of solution manual has an adverse effect onstudents’ learning [2-4]. Other studies have suggested few new strategies for assigninghomework problems [5, 6].The authors of this paper have been teaching engineering

An important aspect of this course is that it is integrated into the engineeringcurriculum. A common issue with global competency courses is that they add extra courses tothe students’ curriculum. Therefore, demanding additional time and effort from the students whowish to develop those global competency skills.

Afterstudents in the experiment group completed two projects with additional feedback on their testcases, they completed a final project without the additional feedback. Despite not receivingadditional feedback, their test cases were of higher quality, exposing on average 5% more buggysolutions than students from the control group.
