Students now have the ability to rely on AI-generated work tocomplete assignments and exams, raising concerns about academic integrity, the authenticity ofsubmissions, and the validity of traditional methods in accurately measuring student learning outcomes.It is clear that, if traditional methods of assessments are not adjusted to match with this new reality, itcan seriously affect the quality of student learning and ultimately undermine the whole enterprise ofhigher education (Cotton et al., 2024).In response to these challenges, educators and institutions must rethink how assessments are designedand implemented to ensure they remain relevant and effective. However, the early response of highereducation institutions has been either a

Even though it is excitingto implement new technology and techniques, modifications to the status quo can be met withresistance. Resistance often forms when the alteration is not perceived as necessary. Thesefeelings can be initiated by either students experiencing the new style of learning or from facultyopposing changes to the curriculum. Students and faculty alike have become comfortable withhow the standard lecture style teaching is carried out.

The concept was to introduce the key elements of innovationin the first year, including results and recommendations from [6] and [8] and the experiencesfrom an existing Freshman research class, expand on key aspects from the Freshman innovationclass in existing sophomore- and junior-level major-specific classes (again using the results

The curriculum team repeated this process with another group of upperdivision students in Winter 2003. The outputs of both efforts were a set of working drawingsthat will be converted into molds for mass production of parts. These parts will go into reusablekits for use by students in the First-Year Engineering Program.

The work presented heregoes further than [12] in describing the details of a broad collection of projects.Ethical and professional responsibilities are often raised as a concern. Ethical engineering andprofessional behavior are discussed across engineering education and are often subject to entirecourse curricula [10, 11]. The work described in this paper does not add to the description ofethics and hacking but does require a basic understanding of security ethics between instructorand students before the project can begin.Project-based learning is widely considered an effective tactic for reinforcing concepts andintroducing new skills to students of all levels [13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18].

The team developing theCorBoK determined an intermediate position reflecting that all systems engineers work in aparticular specialization of systems engineering, but that for different graduates thatspecialization will be different, and that all graduates are first assigned work in which theycontribute to a project but are under the authority of more senior systems engineers who areresponsible for the project as a whole.

The EE students can test their hardware using existing SDR software to ensure it works before final testing with the CS students’ software. This “division of concerns” makes the projects more management for both teams. More importantly, the ultimate success of each group is not necessarily tied to the other group. This helps to prevent internecine conflicts among the students (and faculty!). ≠ The SDR applications are very broad, from amateur radio to public service (e.g., police, fire, and other

Given the paucity of research in this area, wethink this is a very promising area for further development.
