These workshops, led by a teaching assistant, offer hands-on programming practicebeyond lectures, reinforcing core concepts. The PLG is a non-credit corequisite, taught by aproficient former student, with all materials provided by the faculty. There is no direct gradeassigned to the PLG because students are completing their Programming assignments during thePLG. The focus is to give students confidence to start writing code from scratch and let themdevelop their own programming style.In addition to the regular coursework, the curriculum is enriched with challenges and modulesfrom the MathWorks

The addition of simulations and demonstrations seems to mollify this malady to someextent. Automated testing and grade reporting (immediate feedback) is of great value to student andprofessor alike.The non-problem oriented courses (total quality management and quality engineering) seem tobenefit greatly from the use of imbedded videos, especially of outside experts in the field. On theother hand, students seem to quickly become bored with long videos of the instructor coveringcourse material in a normal lecture format.

There has been someexperimentation with ISO 9001 and with Malcolm Baldridge in higher education but there appearto have been few or no attempts to apply either to engineering programs in the US.One of the issues that engineering programs face is workload; thus faculty and programadministrators are looking for assessment methods that are both reliable and efficient and ofcourse

Deep learning that included only peer collaboration didnot appear to be any more successful than traditional surface learning.1. INTRODUCTIONHands-on exploration of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics)education principles, devices, and systems has historically been restricted to expensive, limitedaccess classrooms; student interaction with resources, materials, and tools are limited by time,instructor, and institutional policies and infrastructure.

Confusion over how to tackle such a novel task might interferewith students’ learning.
