This caused fatigue for users who were  locked out of the app or ran into impassible obstacles for sometimes hours at a time.   It seems that a few people had trouble understanding the use of the target and how it supported  the augmented reality.

learning, evidence of improved feedback practicescontinues to be missing [19]. For instance, a lack of alignment between formative andsummative assessment has been noted [20]. Performance based assessment has been extensivelystudied, in particular, the use of formative assessment tools such as rubrics to provide feedbackon student work [21]. However, rubrics are more commonly used on writing assignments, oropen-ended projects, such as design reports. Courses that emphasize content (i.e. facts, and theapplication of physical and mathematical concepts) are common in engineering curricula. Inmany engineering courses students are asked to solve closed-ended problems to demonstratetheir mastery of the material in these types of “fact and principle

Ethical decision-making can depend on conclusions derived from one’s experience, coupled with the acceptanceof alternative beliefs as the interests of anyone affected by the decision, i.e., stakeholders.Research MethodsThis study involves the second of two one-semester introductory engineering courses, in whichstudents pursue a design project in teams, coupled with individual development in

This makes one of our projects to show them real engineerseven more relevant [26].
