someimplementation strategies have been explored much more often than others. For example, asimple search on the ASEE PEER system for the term “problem based learning” yields morethan 2700 conference proceedings related to that topic over the past 25 years. At the other end ofthe spectrum, the literature is almost totally silent on the evaluation of collaborativeenvironments associated with student created study guides (a.k.a. “cheat sheets”) for quizzes andexams. As instructors will sometimes allow students to use their own study guides on exams, itis interesting to explore different creation methods (e.g., individual vs team created).The use of study guides, whether student created or instructor/book created, has probably beenaround as long as instructors

additional rooms. This meantthat even nurses with three-room assignments were often covering more than the roomsdocumented on the white board at the nursing station.At the time the project began, no personnel assignment data was recorded. Each day, the chargenurse would write the room assignments on the large white board by the nurses’ station with thespecific room assignments. Every 12 hours or so, the board would be erased and as the shiftschanged, the data would be lost. As such, the first step of this project involved replicating thewhiteboard data on a simple check sheet to record how personnel assignments were allocated.An example of this can be seen in Figure 1.ASEE 2023Industrial Engineering DivisionFigure 1: Data Capture for Room
