University to meet the needs ofthe growing number of face-to-face and distance education students6. Laboratory experiments areuseful in teaching students skills needed for employment, and to reinforce theoretical conceptsintroduced during lectures. However, the students sometimes do not receive timely feedbackbecause it is extremely time-consuming for the instructors to grade the hands-on exercises. Thestudents usually do not have the opportunities to fix the mistakes they made in previous labs dueto lack of timely feedback. These challenges were addressed by the creation of an automatedgrading and feedback system, called BroadReach Extended, for locally designed hands-onexercises in Information Technology (IT) courses. By introducing the automatic

Navigation course where phased arrays areused to localize signals, indicates that students who did this experiment had better intuition and solidunderstanding about this subject than those who simply did simulations. It was especially gratifying toobserve their reactions when the perceived sound volume went from loud to almost complete silence withonly inches of movement. Thus we transformed an abstract set of equations into a sensory experience.While the 8-element array provides further confidence that the theory matched the experiment results, itwas much easier to perform the experiment using the 4-element array. This experiment will be integrated into the laboratory portion of the antennas course at the U.S. CoastGuard Academy where additional

Moreover, ignoring teachers’knowledge and beliefs can be perceived as a threat to a teacher’s expertise and his/her ability toengage students in meaningful learning. 8, 9 Effective PD accounts for the fact that meaningfulinstructional change takes time and that increased duration of PD leads to positive changes inteacher knowledge and practices. 1, 2, 10 In fact, the quantity of time a teacher spends
