Therefore, engineering schools must preparestudents with teamwork skills and incorporate teamwork as a significant part of their engineeringcurricula (ABET, 2021).Team participation is typically evaluated through peer evaluations or through instructorobservation of individual team members. Several tools have been developed to assess individualperformance, such as the Team Effectiveness Questionnaire (TEQ) or the ComprehensiveAssessment of Team Member Effectiveness (CATME). These assessment tools are based onself-reflections or peer evaluations. However, the efficacy of these tools has been questioned.At the University of

This exercise mimicssharing information over email with a manager or their peers about something the studentrecently read. The summary should use a common language, not techno-speak jargon, andhighlight what is novel about the topic in a concise and compelling manner.1-minute Challenge: Every two weeks the student is asked to stand in front of the class anddiscuss their technical summary from that week.

Where possible, it is advantageous to have more than one assessment instrument toenable triangulation, i.e., to make more reliable observations and evaluations. In most of ourassessments we use rubrics which were described at the program level in [2]. Current versions ofthose discussed in this paper are given in the Appendix. We also make use of evaluations byScrum Leaders which are done for every sprint, i.e., every two weeks. Students also get to doself- and peer-evaluation of teamwork, based on the CATME framework [8].Our rubrics are based on a 4-level performance scale: Beginning (1), Developing (2), Proficient(3), and Exemplary (4).

After a connection is made, the firmware waits until a user connects tothe webcam streaming website (i.e. a client opens a websocket connection to the server). Oncethat happens, the firmware grabs images from the camera module, writes them to the WiFimodule, and streams them to the website.While all of these operations are looping, there is an asynchronous button that allows the camerato be provisioned to a new WiFi network.

IntroductionThe undergraduate program at the Portland State University Department of Electrical andComputer Engineering (PSU ECE) includes a three-quarter capstone design sequence typicallytaken during the student's senior year. For the last three years, and a fourth currently ongoing attime of writing, a capstone project has been sponsored by the author's Wireless EnvironmentalSensing Technology (WEST) Lab. The purpose of these sponsored capstones are as follows: 1. In the short term, design a wireless sensor to solve a specific problem. 2. In the long term, converge at a more general-purpose hardware and software solution set with which to design future wireless

A significant number hesitate to engage inmeaningful discussions to address the feedback provided by their peers or the instructor. As aresult, numerous issues related to their projects remain unresolved, negatively affecting theirapproach to the prototyping phase.To address these challenges, we have developed an AI-based tool, called Capstone GuideChatbot (CAPCHAT).

Gradually, the student will be able to apply the concepts learned processing from basic to complex skills through activities like laboratories with specific feedback with the sole intention for improvement. The application of the knowledge might also then lead to analysis by exploring connections and organizing information into meaningful domains similar to writing a report. This also might include discussing discrepancies in cases and the student might explore other personal variables through their increased critical thinking [17].The taxonomy introduces a new dimension, highlighting four types of knowledge—factual,conceptual, procedural, and metacognitive—aimed at addressing diverse
