In the initial deployments of the exercise, the students were asked to calculate skin friction factor values from the experimental results, and then compare them with values used in the corresponding analytical calculations. This step often seemed to lead to some confusion about which friction factor value should be used for what purpose. As a result, the volume flow rate itself is now used as the basis of comparison between the theoretical calculation and the experiment. The students still need to call upon their knowledge of viscous flow

groundsdoes the accumulation of some threshold number of points constitute mastery of the topic athand? Is such a numerical marker valuable to a learner in reflecting on their progress andaccumulated knowledge? The broad answer to such questions is that points are largely arbitrary,varying wildly in meaning across institutions, courses, or even across assignments.Trends in pedagogy have shifted strongly in the direction of more experiential, authentic learningactivities such as project-based and active learning. As the nature of the classroom activity haschanged, important questions have been raised about the efficacy of traditional grading schemes.Separation has been observed between course objectives and assessment practices, and theability of the
