software product incorporating sustainability concerns is the result of a sustainable development process on which the engineering design decision-making explicitly involves, documents, and analyzes sustainability principles, dimensions and short, mid and long term order effects of the software system where the software product is used. ● Seeking sustainability is an ongoing and continuous effort which requires iterative analysis at different moments in time, incorporating constraints imposed by a changing environment.Experience development and designed rubricThe conducted experience was developed at the Universidad de San Buenaventura – Cali, inbachelor and master programs, in their software engineering projects.In the

Several key concepts ofROS that relate to the robot arm project will be introduced here.Firstly, a “node” in ROS is a software entity represented by executable code (for example, asensor driver or an algorithm to analyze sensor data). ROS nodes are distributed across a networkand registered by a master node that comprise a ROS system. ROS nodes can be distributedacross hardware platforms but there is only one master node. Secondly, communication amongnodes is accomplished with two major mechanisms: topics and services. Nodes communicatingusing topics are designated as either publishers or subscribers. Publisher nodes will publish orsend data

Finally, to encourage students to shareapproaches to solving problems as opposed to specific answers, the web-based problem deliveryand feedback system was programmed to provide a different parameterization of each problem toeach student.An annotated illustration of a typical student interaction with the web-based problem deliveryand feedback system is shown in Figure 3. In addition to supporting the randomization of theparameters of auto-graded numerical problems, the system, Mastering EngineeringTM, supportsthe auto-grading of symbolic problems.

Each lower-level badge links to a higher-level badge, creating abadge tree that sometimes branches and converges with other badge trees at the highest level.Most of the badge trees have four levels of mastery, beginning with preliminary, then emerging,advanced, and finally master. Their challenges have been designed with a parabolic gradation ofdifficulty, with the master level badges indicating a rare and unusual level of student skill,experience, and understanding of a discipline.

Thisstudy implemented a grading scheme (Mastered, Not Mastered, and Not Attempted) thatreflected the goals of a mastery based assessment. Personalized feedback was given to studentswithin a week, and those students who did not reach mastery could resubmit on a weekly basiswith no reduction in their score. In a qualitative analysis of the mastery system presented,students reported that the repetition of problems became time consuming while the instructorsexperienced the opposite- grading with the mastery system took less time than evaluating with apartial credit system.
