We also had to remove the following in-class exercises due to timerestrictions: final proposal presentation and reflections.One of the components that was critical to our adoption of ERSP, especially in ENG 294, waslogging because it helped us to identify team issues and determine proposal progress. Anothercritical aspect of the course was allocating time during class to check-in with each of the teams.Check-ins were done by the faculty and the graduate student.ConclusionOverall, the changes made to the ERSP model were

For the purposes of ABET evaluation and assessment, it is notuncommon for lab classes to be used to assess student outcomes beyond experimentation, andincluding student outcomes having to do with communication, teamwork, ethics andprofessionalism, and life-long learning. Communication, in particular, is a component in labclasses that often results in the majority of time being spent on the preparation of written reportsrather than on actually doing the experiment or in reflecting on the results [10].

Rather than necessarily informing each other, these insular blocks,typically taught by different entities within the university structure, serve as individualappendages between which the student must somehow identify connections.
