Involving students in curriculum evaluation A curriculum is a broad concept. According to Stark and Lattuca (1997), it is not only a subsetof courses in a study plan, but also its content, the course sequence, the students, the teaching-learning processes, the evaluations, the resources, and the necessary adjustments to improve itsresults. Thus, curriculum design and evaluation should consider multiple factors, such as thelearning environments and the interactions between teachers and students [18], [19]. Surprisingly, teachers and students are

The objectives of the course catered towards – (i) Introducing Systems Engineeringfor PNMSats, (ii) Engage students in the design of a PNMSat with a novel payload and (iii)Foster leadership and team development through learning stages. The course agenda consisted of3 phases and the following outcomes were sought for assessing the success of the course.1. Demonstrate a basic understanding of PNMSats and their purpose.2. Demonstrate an understanding of systems engineering and its need for the design and development of PNMSats.3. Envision a project life cycle of a PNMSat mission and plan to be successful.4

The most basic idea of a Gantt chart from 1917 of what is required andin what order developments should occur is crucial, but these charts can be improved on byallowing users to adjust timelines on the fly [11]. Many so-called DevOp tools have beendeveloped over the last decade to facilitate tracking of software development, bug tracking, andentire life-cycles for software [12]. The idea is to adapt, iterate, and prioritize working quicklyand deftly rather than following a plan [13]. Gradually the success of these tools has encouragedother product development realms to adopt similar strategies. Educators are also beginning

A course instructor was responsible for all of the groups’work and each team was assigned a faculty member as coach. The projects have always been realprojects for clients with real needs.Early in capstone projects, the groups’ work often required the expertise of a faculty member tomentor field and lab work even though that faculty member was not the team coach or courseinstructor. The field and lab work can be of lesser quality because the teams failed to adequatelyuse the faculty expert to plan their work. Later, during project design, the sub-discipline designrequired on each project was not always mentored by
