A deeper understanding ofthe QM experience from the Quality Manager’s perspective can be a step to ensuring an efficientand successful
. Students not only ask for more challenges but actually complete them,evinced in challenge completion rates: on average, student-teams achieve 25% more pointsduring the final challenge than required for an A grade. At the end of the quarter(s), 60% oflearners expressed strong interest in joining the university’s SlugSecurity student club andcontinue working within this community of practice to advance their skills and experience.“Thank you for teaching this class. It was a great experience, and I hope to attend Slug Security eventswhen they align with my schedule. You guys are truly knowledgeable and are great teachers, especiallyfor underclassmen.” -Learner response from internal surveyA combination of
engineering, many of the full-time facultyare formally involved in instructing the single section of the course. Because in-class meetingtime, particularly in the fall semester, is often used for design-related skill-building workshops,students are expected to set up a regular meeting time with their advisor(s) outside of class. Inelectrical engineering, the course is split into two sections, with each section instructed by onefaculty member. Advising meetings are typically conducted during course meeting times ratherthan outside of class. To accommodate the variety of projects, students are made aware of thevarious resources available to them on campus and, in some cases, outside of campus and areencouraged to pursue them based on their project's

., reports, presentations, quizzes,exams).Student surveysStudent perceptions of the practices were assessed through surveys. Course 1 used a post-semester survey while Course 2 used both pre- and post-semester surveys.Course 1’s post-semester survey asked two questions related to unannounced quizzes. Both useda five-point Likert Scale format (Strongly Agree – 5 points, Agree – 4 points, Neutral – 3 points,Disagree – 2 points, Strongly Disagree – 1 point). Although individual student responses wereanonymous, the survey was administered to two distinct student groups within each class section– one to civil engineering students and one to non-civil engineering students. The two "separate”surveys were identical in content and format and were provided

previous opportunities for discussions to share ideas andresources, it doesn’t appear to be utilized to a great degree as in previous years. Programscurrently tend to struggle with the same issues of program implementation and evaluation and itwould be nice to see increased dialogue between programs and to ensure that information andresources are readily available to those working with similar programs. Plans are now underwayfor an RET Listserve of current RET programs5 and a potential conference emphasizing theissues surrounding program evaluation. SWEPT programs, in their current form, have been in existence at least since the early1990’s and have been wrestling with the issues surrounding program evaluation from the start.Following a
