inspiration from existingpatents and technological advancements. In the realm of vertical gardening, patents related toplant wall structures and irrigation systems provide valuable insights that inform the design andimplementation of such projects. This analysis explores the influence of relevant patents on thedesign and development of a vertical botanical wall project, focusing on concepts such as trough-based plant containment, structural integrity evaluation, and efficient irrigation methods. Byintegrating findings from these patents, the project aims to optimize spatial utilization, ensurestructural stability, and enhance plant growth through effective fertigation techniques. Thisinvestigation underscores the significance of leveraging existing
problem-solving flow in theirformative assessment submissions. This is accomplished within the EPC by scanning in anystudent hand-written scratch worksheets composed during assessment. Later, these scannedsheets can be used by the student and GTA tutors together while the student explains theirsolution in their own words. This first-line remediation between the GTA tutors and students canresult in a regrading of the assessment and provides additional feedback to the instructor. Thus,computerization of assessments can increase student engagement through in-person tutoringinterwoven with assessment via Socratic discussions which foster metacognition.

Seniors in the Washington study reported that their persistence inengineering degree programs was related to support received from other students, facultyadvisors and mentors. The self-confidence that they gained through the support network is acritical factor in degree completion.In February 2007, an interest survey was developed and administered to find out what types ofprogramming would be appealing to the Engineering Technology students.

The project was started in early1998 with the bidding for the subcontract work and obtaining permits. Actual work began in thewinter of 1998.3. Systems Analysis and Design ModelAs part of this project, a Systems Analysis and Design (SA&D) model was developed that iscapable of analyzing and developing the project’s scheduling process, answering “what if”questions and performing sensitivity evaluation of the results. In the model, the life-cycle of theprocess was defined as that period of time from the inception of the construction to itscompletion. In the model it is assumed that, during the implementation phase, a
