The ETW also encourages using a variety of assignments based on the time available, the purpose of the assessment, and the cognitive level of the learning objective as part of the Planning a Class seminar and the development of in- class and out-of-class activities. The ETW should, as a minimum, include the added benefit of assessing a wider diversity of students by using a variety of assignments in this discussion. Of course, this wider variety of assignments will be more successful in smaller class sizes where the student-faculty interaction is greater and effective

In the innovation course the students developed new ideas forproducts and services using creativity and ideation techniques, which were the central coursecontent. The upshot was that the projects were developed in periods ranging from several weeksto a few months, all in the context of courses emphasizing design methods. These origins ofprojects stand in contrast to the projects seen in NSF I-Corps, which are typically the result oflonger-term research from university laboratories by personnel who are emotionally invested inthis research and its products.

This project aimed at utilizing an Internet of Things (IoT)- based platform to measure these quantities remotely. In this system, oil temperature, oil level and oil permittivity are measured with custom transducers. This information is then collected and sent to a remote server that can be accessed from any computer or smart phone. This real-time information could reveal problems within a transformer or elsewhere in the power system, creating a more precise way to dispatch system maintenance. SE
