Thispaper evaluates their current perceived impact of the assignment (long-term impact) and whetherit might have changed from when they took the course (short-term impact). A survey was sent toall former students who went through the course and participated in the assignment, with a61.64% return rate. The survey included questions about how well they remembered theassignment (some of the students were involved in it 4 years prior to completing this survey), therelevance of the project in terms of their professional preparation, how it
