minimumpercentage to earn a B in the course. Basic achievement of the SO is set to be 73%, the minimumto earn a ‘C’, as students are required to average at least a 2.0 to graduate.There are two measures that will be employed for testing student success based on this masterygoal. The first measure is to take the average scores course-wide and compare against the masterytarget. A higher average than the target suggests that the majority of students exceed theperformance goal. The second metric is to evaluate each student individually to see if they exceedthe mastery goal. Ideally every graduate of our engineering program should demonstrate masteryin each of the 7 SOs. Both measures contribute to both assessing the efficacy of the courseinstruction and

compared it to a controlgroup of their peers. Specifically from data, we can make the following conclusions.The GPAs of the Scientific Village (SV) cohort (Group A) were compared with those of their non-SV peers (Group B) to determine the effect of participation in the program. GPA comparisons ofparticipants and corresponding STEM groups at the College are shown in Table 1 for spring 2017to spring 2019 semesters and graduates. Two sided t-tests after checking equality of variances withF-tests are presented. From the table, it can be seen that all of the p-values of equality of variancestests are greater than 5% significance level. Thus, based on the sample data, we fail to reject thenull hypothesis that Ho: σA2= σB2. Pooled t-tests are then used

for that module.Course grades were determined using specifications (or specs) grading, a relatively new gradingmethod structured around the completion of pre-determined “bundles” of assignments instead ofusing points or weighted averages [19]. Students are given detailed requirements orspecifications for a successfully completed assignment, and student work is graded pass/failbased on whether the requirements were met. Letter grade requirements for this course areshown in Table 2. The outcomes associated with the core quizzes are indicated in Appendix A.“Plus” or “minus” modifications to letter grades, such as “B+”, were determined based on thenumber of smaller assignments completed.

Our goal is to create an extendable desk that foldsdown to the size of a normal office desk when not in use but can also expand out to give the usermore room to work. We started our design process by interviewing different customer segmentsto understand the pains and gains of our customers and form requirements for our product. Thedesk should be able to be easily and quickly converted from folded, to extended, without causingthe user any issue. From customer interviews, we also found that people want the desk to includea standing option, so the user can

to use several entrepreneurial mindset concepts withengineering design principles in order to come up with our new product calledGreenAuto. The idea behind this project was to create a system that receives a feed ofdata from people’s cars which will be turned into feedback to drivers so they can drivemore efficiently. In turn, this will allow them to save money on gas, drive more safely,and be more environmentally friendly. We were able to build on this by going throughthe customer discovery process. We conducted about 40 interviews with potentialcustomers. We created customer segments based off of these interviews anddeveloped a minimum viable product (MVP). We took everything we learned from thediscovery phase to in designing our product
