These elements were initially developed in other courses redesigned byother members of the WIDER community, providing inspiration and guidance from within thecommunity of practice. To scale the course, the course makes use technological innovations that allow for high-quality, automated feedback on assignments. Along with the technology, the course is staffedwith a large group of former students who serve as undergraduate course assistance. Whileevery interaction is still lead by an instructor or

:“You were all creative when you were kids. Every time you sat down and were handed a crayon,you drew something interesting. It’s time to get that creativity back.”A third set of problems was designed to show tradeoffs in design solutions and that problems aresolved for a reason; they aren’t solved in a vacuum. For example, they were given thisassignment: a.) Why do public restrooms have hand drying devices? That is, what is the purpose of hand drying devices in a restroom? (It is not sufficient to answer “to dry hands”)? b.) Give an example of a purely (or mostly) electrical solution to the hand drying problem and an example of a purely (or mostly) mechanical solution. c.) For each solution, list the direct costs of that

To the end of improved training in software testing for our students, this paper presents empiricalstudies conducted in multiple undergraduate CS/SE programming courses at two large publicuniversities (University A and University B). The goal of our study is two-fold: 1) to evaluate theimpact of using WReSTT on the undergraduate students’ acquisition of knowledge and proficiencyof using testing techniques and tools, and 2) to demonstrate that using WReSTT resulted inimproved learning for students on their programming assignments and their ability to use testingtools on their team projects.1 http://wrestt.cis.fiu.edu/about-wrestt
