instrumentality, whichdescribes the degree to which an individual considers something s/he is learning to be useful inhis/her future. Measures of instrumentality have been shown to predict course performance in avariety of settings, including engineering [33, 34]. Essentially, when students don’t see a need tolearn something, their learning tends to be negatively impacted. Commonly, the courses thatgate-keep advanced coursework—such as capstone design courses—include a large componentof introductory or basic content that stands in as disciplinary knowledge [35]; in such cases,students who don’t see these components as useful will tend to perform less well. Increasinginstrumentality for struggling and underserved learners is one way to support them. For

Therefore, the students not only must demonstrate a prototype designed for specific customer need(s) but also the execution process followed by the teams.

pN-3 … p0. The digital DDFSuses the MSB (i.e., pN-1) as the square wave output. One interpretation is to treat the pN-1 bit as asignal that divides the output period into two equal parts (i.e., two equal phases). The values of 0and 1 are assigned to the two phases, respectively. It is possible to assign multi-bit values, suchas 2 and 7, for the amplitude, and the output wave will oscillate between 2 and 7 instead. Similarly, if two MSBs (i.e., pN-1 pN-2) are considered, the same period is divided into fourphases. Different values can be assigned to the four phases. The same concept can be extendedto S MSBs, which leads to 2S phases in a period. A phase-to-amplitude lookup table with 2Sentries can be created to define the shape of the
