The most important impact of this practice was that the knowledge and experiencestudent gained in their project accumulated and stored in a single location. The students workingon the same topic had access to the folder as well as the instructor(s). When new students startedto work on the same topic, the Google Drive folder from past teams was shared with them andthey had access to everything the previous team(s) had done and used.The final overall course assessment was according to the following items:  Proposal 15%  Interim report 15%  Final report 30%  Progress reports or meetings 20%  Poster

It also has started thediscussion of where additional library collaboration earlier in the mechanical engineeringprogram would be appropriate and beneficial.
