The selection criteria for theLOs were that they belong to a STEM course, and the syllabus should have a separate section forlearning objectives. The collected learning objectives cover programming, engineering design,and database systems courses.Evaluation CriteriaWe used the SMART as the criteria to evaluate the quality of LOs, which both the LLM modeland experts used.

We ultimately decided upona reflective portfolio assessment program. Students in the McBride Program are now required tomaintain a longitudinal portfolio over their three and one-half years in the program. Eachsemester both the student and his/her McBride professors write a brief reflection on the student’sprogress towards meeting the program’s goals. Each student

These modules are designed in a way thatthey could be completed within the course of a semester following the documentation created foreach module. We chose xv6 as the platform on which these project modules are based for a numberof reasons. Xv6 is publicly available open-source instructional OS to build and modify, whichavoids issues with cost and licensing. It is lightweight and the source code only occupies half amegabyte of storage. In addition, xv6 compilation takes at most a few seconds on modernmachines, and running it on an emulator (e.g. QEMU) is smooth as well

When it comes to clearly defining the term “professional skills,” mostresearchers provide a list of included skills rather than defining the category. Even the lists ofskills that fit into the category of professional skills vary. As noted by Colwell, “if one were toask educators in…engineering…what is meant by the term ‘soft skills’, there would likely besome consensus on the list, but each educator asked would probably have a different list (p.3)”.10 Despite the variation, many authors representing practicing engineers 9, alumni ofengineering programs 11, and engineering educators 7, 11 agree that the following skills areprofessional skills
