For example, as much as possible,programming assignments are geared towards solving business problems. If nothing else, theseassignments help familiarize CIT students with the jargon found in the business world.

All studentstake the same final exam at the same time during final exam week. Grading is divided so that thesame faculty member will grade the same problem(s) on the final for all students taking the finalexam. That is, faculty member A may be assigned to grade problems 1 and 2 for all studentstaking the final exam that semester. This insures that all of the finals are graded consistently.Performance on the common final is a good indicator of how well the students learned thematerial taught in the class.

Once the quiz is passed the team or small groups ofstudents are taught one of the skills mentioned early by an expert (teaching assistant) thengiven a small project to complete independently which is then evaluated by the expertusing a rubric. If the student passes inspection then the student becomes certified in thatarea of skill.In the second step student teams use the acquired skills to contribute to the first project.The class acts as one large team trying to create a project which is created one step at atime as described previously. Each team completes their part of the project then passesinformation or products to the team(s) that are in
