topic was question D4, in which the students’ appeared to understand theimportance of effective communication on the job site. There was also improvement in allobjective questions, with three questions scoring a 100% in the late semester showing ofthe video. This is likely due to the fact that these topics are covered extensively throughoutthe semester. The question that scored the lowest was question D9, which was thedefinition of the USCS acronym. The lower than expected result was due to strict gradingadopted by the professor. All four words had to be identified, spelled correctly, and in thecorrect tense. If a student defined the first “S” as Soils, then the answer was incorrect as thefirst “S” is not plural (i.e. Soil). After the

adjustment of one or more actuators connected to it. Anexample of this would be to add a decision making thing to the above example that “subscribes”to the temperature, light and motion data that has been ‘published” by the sensing devices.Using a control algorithm, the decision making device would “publish” new actuator positions tothe broker that would store these instructions. When a third actuator device logs into the IoTsystem, it can subscribe to the subset of instructions pertaining to it actuators and makeadjustments based on the instructions published by the decision-making device(s). This systemcan operate without constant human intervention and does not have to be fully connected at alltimes – thus the creation of an IoT system. Finally
