Finally, studentsimplemented and tested their own additional modifications. Most students do not have previous experience with reverse engineering binary executables,so the first step is an exploration of the different tools available for reverse engineering software.A preliminary search reveals both IDA (particularly IDA Pro) and BinaryNinja as the most usedplatforms. Free demo versions are available for both softwares, and these are the ones most usedby students. Once a platform(s) is chosen, students must explore what settings and views aremost helpful for analysis, and how to switch and

Included in the selection process (step 4) is a detailed engineering economics analysisand, if appropriate, statistical analysis. A compromise clearly must be struck between achievingas many of these objectives as possible and actually being able to secure projects. If cost, forexample is not an issue, then a class-wide, competitive project can be devised that accomplishesmost of these goals, although the time available for step 7 above is limited by the length of thesemester.

However, much less research focuses on thedevelopment of such courses and programs and how they evolved to the current state. One of thefew studies that reported this process was conducted by Froyd and Rogers [1] in the 90’s thatanalyzes the process of development and creation of a first year engineering program, and therehave not been more significant studies since then that focus on first year engineering programs.We consider that research describing the process of development and improvement of first yearprograms is important and necessary in engineering

We spoke to the faculty prior to their use of the rubric tohighlight each of the items and what they were intended to measure. The faculty have alsoworked extensively with the course’s project rubrics and hence the authors feel comfortable withwhat should be looked for in student’s report when grading.ConclusionsWe implemented a project related to the design of children’s toys, that leverage the principles ofUniversal Design, in a multidisciplinary, first-year engineering course.

the end-of-course review process. Any flag in assessment must have a documented discussion about it, whether it includes anyrecommended course improvements or not. It was decided to have two levels of flags for low performance, and onlyone for high performance in order to not oversaturate the process. The green flags are good for indicating what maybe excessively high grades and their implications, but between a 2.0 and 2.75 EAMU Average computes to an averagegrade in the 80’s, and this is not considered excessively high, particularly since the institution is considered “highlyselective.” The flags being triggers for discussion ensures that ABET assessment is directly tied to curricularcontinuous improvement.
