. This tool streamlines grading tasks and provides prompt,consistent feedback. It demonstrates the efficiency of automated tools in managing lab work andthe potential for similar applications in lab report grading. Weinthal et al. [12] discuss theimplementation of technology to ensure academic integrity in engineering labs. The studyhighlights various methods, such as the use of security features on grading sheets, mandatory labimage uploads, and metadata tracking of lab reports. These measures aim to authenticate labgrades and student work, maintaining integrity in the grading process.Methodology - Sentiment AnalysisIn the investigatory course, students are assigned to groups of four to six for lab sessions.

He was using a computing machine and his study of the science of harmony inconcert, just as Ada Lovelace envisioned, which we may consider as a form of musical computingscience. He worked with Cecil and Margouleff to modify TONTO’s wiring to perform analogmodulation to maximize the “funkiness” of his sound, which can be a musical computerengineering. By leveraging the technology of TONTO to overlay and compose melodies, he
focuses on designing and developing educational technologies that facilitate various aspects of student learning, such as engagement.
