Additionally, 46%of the students are female, 57% are first-generation college students, and approximately 40% of the totalundergraduate population are transfer students. CPP’s educational philosophy is “learn-by-doing,”engaging students in hands-on research, scholarship, and creative activities; our design-build projectembodied this aspect of CPP’s educational philosophy. CPP has a high percentage of STEM majors at 41%. 1 CPP ranks highly as a top performer in upward social mobility, ranking at #6 in the West, propelling low-income

students’ educational learningexperience. Our student survey in 20115 indicated that almost all students had access to the digitaltextbook solution manuals. Until early 2000s, the weight of homework assignments on the finalgrades was as high as 30%. With the knowledge of student access to the solution manual the weightof homework assignments on the final grades was reduce 0-10%. With lower weight, less studentsattempt homework assignments. In an attempt to resolve this problem, we started to create our ownproblems and assign them to students as additional assignments5.6. Initially, this approach seemedto be a helpful solution to force students to solve homework assignments on their own. However,this solution did not last long. Now there are a
