Again,different levels and understanding coupled with different approaches and lack of effectivecommunication between team members and teams led to a lot of inefficiencies the first half ofthe semester. However, by the second half of the semester the students did a very good job ofcoordinating their activities. Figure 3ConclusionThe prototype system developed by the students still has a lot of rough edges and needs somerefining. However, it provides a good base to build on. It shows a lot of promise as a tool tohelp faculty track and document the assessment process, which will hopefully become part of acontinuous improvement process.

A system of intervention that catchesstudents that need help at the early stages of the course and provides the help needed (i.e., thesafety net) and properly managed groups are needed to foster student accountability, frequentand timely feedback, and detailed assignment design. Face-to-face classroom time was carefullytailored to utilize all these ingredients.In the live portion of the class, students are placed in predetermined groups for the duration ofthe course to form cohesive learning teams.
