should reinforce underlying ECEconcepts while providing examples of ECE and BME application. Our 305’s portable modulesfor nScope, strike this balance. Since nScope and Digilent Analog Discovery share manysimilarities, we anticipate the earliest partial implantation of these modules in EEL3111C to takeplace in Spring 2018. The researchers will have then have the opportunity to study the wayinstructors employ new materials, the difficulties they face, and what can be done to overcomethose barriers. Perhaps the most challenging HPL principle to implement in a web-based platform is“assessment-centered,” as it entails optimizing the amount and type of formative feedbackprovided to the students. We will use the results to examine the effectiveness of
community service intent. ACKNOWLEDGMENTI would like to thank the two anonymous reviewers whosecomments ultimately added clarity and some additionalcontext to the paper.

Each sentence in the responses were analyzed using descriptiveemergent codes. Following our methodology, themes were identified from the data rather thancreated based on a priori theory or
exam questions. To determine the similarity of the SS1 and SS2’s exams in terms of difficulty, we firstclassified the questions from the four exams (two midterms and two finals) into five topicalgroups. These kinds of problems were tested on each exam in each iteration of the class. We thenrandomly sampled the questions in each group, selecting 23 questions in total. We asked severalfaculty members from the Engineering Department to use their expert opinions on the difficultyof each question without identifying which class or exam the questions originated. We wouldthen ask the experts to discuss the questions to evaluate the difficulty of each question and cometo a consensus, assigning each question a score of 1-5.1 – Not at all
