University to meet the needs ofthe growing number of face-to-face and distance education students6. Laboratory experiments areuseful in teaching students skills needed for employment, and to reinforce theoretical conceptsintroduced during lectures. However, the students sometimes do not receive timely feedbackbecause it is extremely time-consuming for the instructors to grade the hands-on exercises. Thestudents usually do not have the opportunities to fix the mistakes they made in previous labs dueto lack of timely feedback. These challenges were addressed by the creation of an automatedgrading and feedback system, called BroadReach Extended, for locally designed hands-onexercises in Information Technology (IT) courses. By introducing the automatic

The original concept was that the student couldlook at the assignment on the network right from the lab table. However one experience withnetwork problems caused the emphasis to change to encourage the student to download the PDFfile prior to the lab so that it would be available no matter what the status of the network duringthe two hours the student was in lab.
