-term projects than a single semester or year would permit. This allows faculty to take on more ambitious projects; it gives new students experience in coming up to speed on an existing project - as they'll inevitably need to do in a future workplace; and, it gives returning students leadership experience, as they help on-board and organize the activities of new members. 3. The program is curricular and all participating students are graded (A-F; not P/F or S/U). VIP is not an extra- or co-curricular activity. It is a sequence of courses whose credits count towards students' degree requirements. Letter grading holds students accountable for their work. In many ways
possiblethat the unconventional operating system could expose a SCADA system to undocumentedvulnerabilities and exploits. The PanelView HMI is configured with the FactoryTalk View Studiosoftware and has SCADA features configured for data acquisition and control of an Allen BradleyMicrologix 1000 PLC through an RS-232 serial connection. The communications configurationfor this HMI application is unique because it allows for assessments of a SCADA system wherethe PLC is wired through a serial connection opposed to Ethernet.Summary of Student InvolvementThis project started with the announcement of Enhancing Undergraduate Research Experiences &Creative Activities (EURECA)’s Faculty and Student Team (FAST) project/grant announcementswhere

This allows us to investigate what feedback orboosters would have been earned by individual students in a real-life situation to validate thefeedback design before live deployment.Related WorkRewards, Operant Conditioning, and Intrinsic MotivationApplying rewards to increase student motivation has been widely researched in areas includingpsychology, education, and video games 1 2 17 . In 1940’s, Skinner formed the theory of operantconditioning to explain how a behavior can be shaped by its resulting consequences 15 .
