Continuous-Time (CT) systems and the other deals withDiscrete-Time (DT) systems.Beginning Fall 2005, the CT SSCI Tests (developed externally) have been administered inalmost every offering of our Linear systems course. These tests fulfill the ABET requirement forassessment. They also help track the effectiveness of teaching styles by testing whether thestudents are learning the basic concepts in the course.In this paper, we present the results of the tests for both Fall 2005 and Fall 2006 and analyze theresults to assess the students’ performance and determine evidence of learning outcomes. Somesuggestions for future offerings of the course are also presented.These results are also compared with other assessment tools (developed internally) prior to

The original pilot in 2019 had only 3 REM students and 3 REM teachers. Figure 1: A timeline of the CISTAR – NSBE SEEK partnership.After the successful pilot in summer of 2019, the next year had COVID shutting down all in-person summer programs. NSBE SEEK was able to pivot to virtual programs in 2020. Withuniversity laboratories closed and having predominantly experimental research projects, it tooklonger for CISTAR to pivot and offer the program virtually. Thus, in the summer of 2020
