The total student population of the department is ~200students with about a 10:1 ratio of students-to-faculty and staff. Most classes are taught bytenure-track faculty. The engineering program has a four-year, project-based learningcurriculum, where all engineering majors take team-based project courses with external clientsfor three years. The students’ first-year experience revolves around team-based labs and lectureswith a second semester of the first year devoted to learning fundamentals of Design for SixSigma and Agile with a client internal to the department.

much more apparent. We require the student teams to meet once per week outside of class but we find that they often voluntarily meet more frequently. Certainly the leadership team (CTO and team leads) meets even though it is not required. • Students get taste of being a mid-level manager (the “CTO” role). They are elected to this position by their peers and not allowed to write any code while they are in the role. Even so, they quickly realize that it’s a lot of work. This is much more of a true leadership position than just a team lead. The CTO selects sprint goals and team composition. “I was class CTO” looks good on a resume too. • Progress is faster. Having one team of 20 isn’t four-times faster

results in active participationduring the lecture with students seeing results in real time. In addition to working in parallelduring the lecture phase, immediately following the lecture the students try in-class exercisesdesigned to reinforce the concepts from the lecture. The hands-on in-class exercises havereceived very positive feedback from the students. Often the material seems to make sense whileI’m lecturing and giving examples, but when the students have to write the code themselves, theyoften realize they do not know the material as well as they thought they did. Students can askquestions and get one on one help during the in-class exercise portion of the class. The greatestimpact of the in-class exercises is a higher level of retention

We have convened a set of six core instructors to write an initial draft of Instructional Design Principles for studios. These include: Practice First; Group Worthy Problems, Looping, Cooperative Learning; Assessment; and Manageable Change. These will next be taken to the larger set of studio instructors for further development and consideration.  New Studio Activities. We have developed and implemented seven new studios to date over the sophomore-level sequence. Two of these are based on virtual process simulations
