This course was offered in Fall2020 in a combination of synchronous and asynchronous delivery methods. With the redesign toadapt to the online learning environment, weekly Canvas module quizzes were used as formativeassessments.

Further, in the case of E2 (the capstone course), there was a department expectationthat a significant portion of the grade would be based on student performance.Dimension: Emphasis. Across the instances of ungrading, there were three instances in whichungrading mediated the entire grade (A1, A2, and E1). In the remaining instance (E2), studentswere told that the ungrading effort would account for 30% of the grade (and the rest of the gradewould be based on the capstone project effort).The notion of tradeoffs may not be relevant to motivations, but

Industry: Similar to a senior design capstone project, an industry-sponsored project allows underclassmen to engage early in the engineering design process. Each project has milestones that the students must complete throughout the year. There is an industry technical advisor that meets with each group, as well as a technical lead at the school to ensure deliverables are met. The advantage to this track over senior design projects is that because not all students are seniors, companies can introduce multi
