, gaining significant traction in the K-12 system is standards-based grading. With standards-based grading, grading is based upon “measuring students’proficiency on well-defined course objectives.” [1] Instead of arbitrary grading scales, studentsare assessed multiple times regarding their performance on course outcomes. By doing this,there is an increase in student engagement and a more thorough comprehension of coursematerials. [2] Standards Based grading focuses on the specific, relevant skills a student shouldlearn and helps instructors to assess how well students are learning and tailor their teaching tomeet areas of concern. [3] By measuring these goals, students continue to learn. By usingrubrics to articulate these goals, students can use

exemplars of “Infusing Real WorldExperience into Engineering Education” [14]. An example that includes engineering and software community-engagement is the EPICSProgram that has engaged students at Purdue University for more than two decades. It has grownsignificantly in size and breadth to where it is recognized as an independent academicprogram within the College of Engineering with dedicated laboratories and teaching staff. In theFall semester of 2018, over 700 were enrolled and engaged in more than 150 projects with 57community partners. While the program began within Electrical and Computer Engineeringexclusively, it has become explicitly multidisciplinary with an average of about 40 majorsparticipating in a typical year, and it includes
