LearningAccreditationAlthough not a motivation, this approach does simplify ABET accreditation. Normally projectwork and professional skills are distributed through a TBL curriculum. This makes it verydifficult to isolate and assess these topics. A common approach is to create one course to carrymany of the topics, or heap most of the assessment categories into the capstone course. With aPBL core the assessment topics can be assessed at a natural pace in the spirit of continuousimprovement. For reference the ABET ETAC and EAC criteria are listed 7​​ .

The development of asynchronous courses is to help those students who are restricted by work requirements, geographical distance, disabilities, and combination of these factors. In the authors’ program, 148 out of 327 total enrollments in the academic year of 2014 are part-time students. b. Because the unprecedented changes occurring on the web, a significant number of students are in the DL education.

objectivesThe objective of the course and the lab were to provide students with a skill set so they wouldbe able to analyze, develop, design and implement a reasonably large and complex digitalcircuit using either discrete components or a PLD. When wiring the circuit in discrete partsseems tedious students are advised to use a CPLD development board for lab work. Table 1shows the lecture topics and the relevant lab topics for the course.The theme of the course may be viewed as consisting of the following four sections: Section A: Digital logic foundations such as number systems and arithmetic, Boolean algebra and expressions; Section B: Combinational logic design, verification, and implementation Section C: Sequential logic

The aggregated data may be compared against a predetermined threshold, ifone is used; but the focus is on the attainment levels. Using aggregated data allow determinationof where continuous improvement actions may be most effective.If a program chooses to assess and evaluate its student outcomes across a two-year cycle, it islogical that student outcomes assessed in each academic year should be evaluated and consideredfor improvement actions that year. Alternatively, a program may have five student outcomes anda process to assess those outcomes over a three-year period (e. g., outcome A in year one,outcomes B and C in year two, and outcomes D and E in year three

asked to rate the performance of each team with regards to a)performance on task assigned to the team and b) willingness to assist other teams. The approachto assessment relieved the stress of some students around interdependence on fellow teammembers. They had comfort in the fact that they would have a voice in assessing theperformance of other team members and thereby mitigating against slackers.With functional teams in place, organizing the work began with the creation of a workbreakdown structure (known as the WBS) and establishing a responsibility matrix. The WBSwas formed around the various work areas of the plant while the teams were created according tothe equipment types to be moved. Prime responsibility for a work area was given to
