between demographics and target errors. Approximately 1/3rd of theclass contacted the teaching assistants for guidance on what to do, asking what step-by-stepinstructions to earn full credit. The open-ended aspect became a challenge of having too manyoptions and wanting to be told which option they should select. The next iteration of thiscurriculum will need to consider this unease with ambiguous, open-ended assignments.[1] B.
