In their design groups,students identified best practices for integrating the PCB with the package, in terms of mountingthe PCB, attaching the batteries, and designing/placing switches and controls. At the end of theexercise, groups gave brief presentations to share their findings with the class.Module administration also changed as needs and weaknesses were identified. The gradingrubric for ECE 483 was changed in 2013 because the instructor perceived that the original rubriccontained too much detail. This led students to work towards checking items off the list ratherthan mastering skills through quality work. Also in 2013, students in both programs wererequired to develop a user’s manual

from minority student population groups [15].Prior researchers have noted the benefits of REU in improving the research competencies ofundergraduate students [4] [12]. However, it has also been suggested that students are sometimesconfused as to whether they should continue in academia or get some experience in the industrybefore deciding about graduate school [16] [17]. To that end, REU sites provide a great platformfor students to understand what graduate school and research look like, opportunities thereafter,and how to prepare for them. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the impact of differentprofessional development activities in a REU program on overall student experiences andoutcomes.

Given thatour course participants are graduate students with research responsibilities, reducing the timeburden for this course was a top priority. Still, we believe that utilizing a limited number ofungraded assessments will increase opportunities for active recall and spaced repetition without asignificant increase in participant time burden.For (3), one of the driving motivators in the inception of the course was creating

Teaming, rather than individual effort, is how thebusiness world gets work done and effective teaming builds significant human capital for thecompany (Beyerlein, 2001). Unfortunately, a typical engineering student experiences a learningenvironment with high rewards for individual achievement and little or no emphasis on criticalskills such as cooperation, trust, communication and leadership.
