His daily activities included making models in acomputer aided design program, speaking with vendors on the phone, selecting and purchasingcomponents for his design, 3D printing some components, and writing software to read hissensor. He worked with another student on this project. His activities were not restricted by hisdisability.

The portion ofthe S-index that comes from mastery is the M-index, which is also given on the dashboard. TheM-index is basically a weighted sum of the mastery bars and is designed to come out roughlyequal to the number of objectives mastered at the end of the semester. It does not represent thatearly in the semester but provides relative measure for students to gage their progress relative totheir peers in mastery alone.No matter what angle you take, it is not possible to determine course grade from mastery alone.But that is true for any course with

Compounding this difficulty is the factthat Louisiana carefully controlled the data from charter schools, releasing it only to a smallnumber of favored researchers, in violation of public records laws. The courts only sorted thisout in fall 2014.33Those who had privileged access to data touted success of charter schools: increasedstandardized test scores, increased graduation rates, and increased diversity (interpreted as ahigher number of white students enrolled).34,35 However, critics have pointed out methodologicalflaws in these studies, to the point where one

In the finalassignment students had the task to write a paper and to discuss two aspects. First, they had todevelop reasons and arguments about ordinary customers and their environmental behavior anddecision making. This prepared for developing the second aspect: “Please devise political meansfor changing the habits and taken-for-granted normalcy of customers.” In comparison to previousclasses, the students of the 2014 and 2015 classes were better prepared on average to think aboutthe reasons and motives of customers.

YSP participants were challenged to read journal articles, collaboratively write a scientific article based on a group experiment (making ice cream without an ice cream maker), as well as prepare an abstract, poster, and talk focused on their own research project. In addition to the weekly communication course, participants from all of the Center’s summer research programs—including YSP students—attended a weekly seminar series. Topics varied slightly from year to year. For example, the summer 2014 seminar series included the following topics: responsible conduct of research, ethics of animal research, neuroethics, industry, communicating to lay audiences, and applying to graduate school.

Working with faculty, they determine which learning modes will be appliedand determine what types of evidence they will need to acquire in order to demonstrate outcomeattainment by the end of the project cycle. Learning activities include planning, resourceidentification, self-directed knowledge acquisition, peer conversation, help-seeking, reflection,and evaluation.15 Each project cycle concludes with the presentation of two reports: a

In addition, design challenges require both teamwork andindividual participation. This allows students to practice working with peers, similar to workingwithin a community of professionals.
