Part II of this paper emphasizes important parts of the embedded systems course leading to adiscussion of the capstone project course and its requirements. Part III provides a detail discussion ofthe results of a survey completed by students after they have received the grades for the proposal anddesign phases of the project, but before starting the second semester of their projects.

However, mission objectives are evaluated by a scoreat the end of game play, so students’ understanding of how to receive the highest score willalways be informed by testing and gameplay. This cyclical game flow parallels the cyclicalengineering design process in Appendix I of the NGSS, as well as engineering processes fromNASA and Massachusetts Department of Education [3] [4].FLEET contains multiple authentic missions so that students can better see themselves as navalengineers and experience the wide range of job duties available to naval engineers.

When the students were informed that they had to give up the location ofthe Bayview Park due to uncertainty of the master plan of that region, they dived into design forbus stops right away with enthusiasm. After selecting the bus stop right outside the Knight Club(an on-campus student coffee shop), they realized that the entire roof of the Knight Club mightbe available, so the system size was scaled bigger, for the newly-identified location. The focusshifted from “aesthetically pleasing attraction…” to “harvest renewable energy to reduce theutility bill for the Knight Club”. Students spent time and effort to search for suitable system forthe roof size and researched regulations for the site

Some of theseactivities are epistemic practices because they are directed towards gaining knowledge orincreasing understanding. Through reflection, epistemic metacognitive skills (EMS), on theirresearch activities and social interactions, students build and refine their knowledge of howresearch works. This knowledge of how research works affects students’ existing and developingbeliefs and perceptions about what a researcher does and about knowledge and knowing

In the role-playing exercise, students were asked to pick rolesand use one of the motivations that were identified by the students.The initial plan was to find intervention methods that instructors could use when they notice thatsome students were being excluded. The students, though, felt that intervention methodstargeted, at specific students would be counterproductive and requested that the inclusivity bepart of the team expectations and training, rather than a targeted intervention.In Fall 2018, the authors administered a pilot survey designed to validate the results of Zhu andMeuth’s [21] survey of communication, teamwork, and

Afterthe truck control was initially tested by using the ultrasonic sensors only, autonomous control wasfurther tested in lab conditions by utilizing both the Pixy cam and ultrasonic sensorssimultaneously. So far, we have been able to repeatedly drive through a third of the courseautonomously. When the course is finished being outfitted with the color panels (swatches), it isexpected that the truck will move along the whole route autonomously, and it will be able torepeatedly run the whole course back and forth without collision.Based on the progress so far, the following plans are considered
