c American Society for Engineering Education, 2015 Resistance is Futile: A New Collaborative Laboratory Game Based Lab to Teach Basic Circuit Concepts AbstractIn recent years, gamification of education has proven to be an effective paradigm in modernpedagogy. Following the success their previous work "Sector Vector”, the authors now present anew game-based laboratory to highlight the manipulation and calculation of resistors in circuits.In Game of Ohms [1] the lesson of electrical resistance is delivered as an interactive exercisebuilding an intricate circuit. As the game progresses, students are forced to make short and longterm plans to modify an evolving circuit which

orderto do so, the School of Engineering developed a zero-credit course that was given at the end ofthe sophomore year. This course was originally developed in response to the ABET 2000Criteria, and has been modified over the years to meet changes in protocol, curriculum, andtechnology8. During this course, the students go through an individual interview with theinstructor and take an exam based on the courses from the first two years of the curriculum. Thisinformation is then used during the department’s internal assessment process.This paper gives an overview of this exam, as well as how it is used to help in our internalassessment process and outlines recent plans to use the exam to aid students in their upperdivisional years as well.

In the Software Enterprise8,9 at Arizona StateUniversity, a project-based curriculum is offered to undergraduate and graduate softwareengineering students. In a typical project experience, students are grouped into teams, eachworking on building a software project by incorporating the principles of Agile. A course projectis typically divided into 4-5 sprints spanning 3 weeks each. The requirements for this projectedare accumulated into a product backlog created through a planning process. During each sprint,the team identifies a set of user stories from the product backlog and adds them to the currentsprint backlog. Teams then identify tasks to do

The National Science Foundation(NSF) reports that 39% of URMs "plan to major" in science and engineeringfields as freshman, but less than half of these earn an undergraduateengineering degree; rates are startlingly lower for Blacks and Hispanics.One way to increase retention and graduation rates in engineering for allstudents is to enhance their overall skills and readiness for engineering-related work by way of cooperative education (i.e., co-op) and internships1that offer students "real-life, hands on" experience in their major subject.
