This promotes a crispness inrequirements formulation and fosters singularity and precision.Figure 9: VerificationThe author found that despite providing quality check tables (that contained elements thatviolated a style guide rule), some students had difficulties in using them to improve modelquality. The introduction of an on-demand validation suite (See Table 1) significantly improvedproject quality (no projects have been submitted with violations since its introduction). It allowsthe codification of the quality checks and when the validation engine processes the rules,violating elements are identified within the model. It is relatively simple for modelers to thencorrect the issues (receiving satisfying feedback
