These can be an excellent tool for studentsand TAs alike to learn how a grading rubric is to be applied to an assignment.

The initial investment for each technology is basedupon the retail purchase price of grid-tied power generation system, typical mounting hardwarecost, and an estimated installation cost. Factors that offset the capital expense are the federal taxcredits and rebates available through state programs. The expected life of the system and anominal recurring maintenance cost complete the factors used to compute the internal rate ofreturn. Some inputs have more uncertainty than others, thus variations in the installation cost,long term performance, and life expectancy are made to assess their effect on the rate of return.Seven areas near well known cities with significantly

Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) [4] advocates thisapproach of providing small hints that allow a student to progress from their current state ofknowledge forward towards a solution. If the hint is too large and the student is given the answer,learning is limited. There exist a number of approaches in CBL to personalize the learningenvironment, but these are mostly limited because the software does not have the informationneeded to understand the student’s thought process. For example a common approach in CBLuses multiple-choice questions. But when the student selects an answer, the software cannotdetect if the student selected the answer by guessing, nor can it understand the reason behind thestudent’s mistake.

This technology can involve considerable initial costs, limitingaccess to only those with substantial resources. Additionally, both educators and students may facea steep learning curve to effectively use VR systems, which can take time away from core learningobjectives [10]. Another challenge lies in scalability; VR systems are often designed for individualor small-group interaction, making it difficult to accommodate large classes, which are commonin civil engineering programs

For assessment purposes,the instructors felt that the individual course grades needed to be adjusted to accommodate forthe portion of the grade that is defined by group work in these courses. Individual grades are areflection of a student’s actual work, whereas the group grade is easily confounded by the effectsof their team mates (positively and negatively).Assigning grades to individuals for a group project is important because instructors want toassign grades based on effort. Since all students in a group typically receive the same grade for agroup assignment (e.g. a group report), group grades have the undesirable effect of obscuring astudent’s true performance, especially if group work constitutes a large portion of the final
