Problem Definition and RequirementsSituated in Eastern North Carolina, Middle Creek Farms faces a persistent challenge of excessivewater, posing a risk of flooding and potential harm to both equipment and crops. Recognizing theneed for an efficient solution, the Center for IoT Engineering and Innovation has strategicallydeployed ultrasound sensors within the irrigation canals managed by the farm. These sensors servea crucial role in continuously monitoring water levels and promptly notifying the farmer whenthey approach critical levels. This real-time monitoring and alert system

The contract outlines the type of grading and what is expected of the students during the course. 2. Learning logs: The students were allowed to write learning logs reflecting on their learning experiences both in and out of the classroom. Two types of logs were used. The first type was a reflection on their learning based on the homeworks or projects that they did. The second type was a learning log in lieu of attending a live lecture or watching an asynchronous lecture. Students submitted weekly logs for the asynchronous learning and biweekly logs for the homeworks or

attempt to comprehend code priorto activities wherein they produce their own code—the Use-Modify-Create approach.2.3 Use-Modify-Create as IBL for CS EducationUse-Modify-Create (UMC) is a CS-specific pedagogical approach introduced by Lee and colleagues in2011[14] for use with K-12 students. They proposed a three-stage model for learning to code. In the firststage, students first used instructor designed code. In the second stage, students modified existing code.Finally, after gaining the skills to code their own projects, students responded to programming problemsby creating their own code. We argue that the UMC approach constitutes three complementary cycles of IBL in introductoryCS education, where the subject of students’ inquiry are the

The hopewas that this project would provide a less expensive approach to navigating through daily life,since this type of technology can be prohibitively expensive for many people, and can requiremore technological knowledge than many people possess.

Our experimental setup consisted of two groups of students at a largeMidwestern R1 University, in an undergraduate, pre-capstone SE course. We utilized a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest hybrid between groups and within groups design for this study. Thecontrol and treatment groups consisted of successive cohorts of sophomores/juniors from CS andComputer Engineering, one section each. This SE course was a mandatory component of theiracademic progression towards earning their degree.The treatment group was taught using PI while the control group received instruction throughtraditional lectures.
