minors. o Technology Leadership and Communication: one graduate studentThe goals for this project were twofold: to design and configure a real-time DSP platform for themusic effects system and to provide an experiential learning environment where students couldapply best practices in engineering design. The students concentrated on the technical goals: • Choose a few common D.J. music effects to focus upon and develop algorithms for the effects • Select a real-time Digital Signal Processing (DSP) platform to implement the effects. (Three sample evaluation boards were purchased before the beginning of the summer for the students to test, but in the end, none of these were used. The students found a better solution

Assessment for learningsupports the adoption of evaluation and feedback practices that improve student learning goingforward, and assessment that is, in and of itself, a learning activity [10]. As one aspect of this“feed forward” approach [11], assessment for learning aims to not only produce a grade as aproduct of a summative evaluation, but also support improved performance in the future.Assessment becomes not just an add-on to the course design, but a central component of thedesign. This is aligned with a backward design method and Bigg’s constructive alignmentframework [12], [13].Conventionally, assessment is seen as a product of performance or
