improveeducational outcomes for aerospace engineering students is outlined. An overview offoundational information on ground stations, their components, and use in government andindustry is provided. A review of the current integration of ground stations into universityactivities and curricula is presented, with an emphasis on the approaches for integration andalignment with curriculum. Learning objectives were developed by using the AccreditationBoard for Engineering and Technology’s (ABET) requirements for aerospace engineeringprograms alongside Bloom’s Taxonomy to leverage university ground stations. The specificground station requirements and design considerations that are necessary to achieve the desiredfunctionality for execution of the learning

[4]. Therefore, these engaging, accessible, and affordable courses and challenge problemshave been and will continue to be developed to reach more students throughout the state, and inthe future, the country.SLI’s goal is to increase the number of students and enhance the education of students pursuingcareers in space. The objective is to create an integrated set of educational resources, implementthem strategically in undergraduate classrooms, K-12 classrooms, outreach events, andworkshops, and assess their efficacy in achieving our goal. The public benefit of the project isexpanded opportunities, materials, and resources for enhancing K-12, undergraduate,teacher/professor, and public knowledge and understanding of space science and

this investigation involvesassessing the potential impact of revising the assessment structure to integrate best practices.The key questions guiding this research are: 1. Does altering the final assessment structure significantly impact outcomes related to cognitive fatigue, considering variations in question timing—either in concentrated sessions or spread out over an extended period? 2. Can incorporating best practices into the assessment structure lead to distinct and potentially improved results?Literature ReviewAssessment StrategiesEducation employs a wide array of assessment strategies, and recent research sheds light on theireffectiveness and implications.
