Each category has 3-5 topics [D1-D5, C1-C4, B1-B3, and A1-A3], and the corresponding grade is earned if a short test for each topic (or in somecases, a pair of topics) in the category is “Approved”. A grade of Approved is earned fordemonstrating A-quality work (only minor errors permitted). A grade of “ConditionallyApproved” is earned for demonstrating B-quality work, with full approval being earned throughwriting corrections. A grade of “Not Yet Approved” is assigned for demonstrating C or lowerquality work, with full approval requiring another test of the same topic to be taken. In

latter group was found to have higher finalexam grades implying greater improvement.Juhler et al. [7] examined the test and retest scores for 1,314 students who completed anintermediate algebra course. For each of seven chapter tests, if the student achieved less than a Bgrade, they could opt to take a retake. The score on the retake replaced the original test score,regardless of whether it was an improvement, but was limited to a B grade. On average, studentswere eligible to take 5.30 retakes and opted to take 2.31 retakes. The majority (88-95%) ofstudents who took the retake improved their score. However, there was no significant correlationbetween the number of retakes and the final exam score.Abraham [8] offered 150 students in intuitive

This paper describes vision-based control of a PI-controlled VEX robot. This new version doesnot include the Cortex. The VEX mobile base was controlled directly/solely by the Raspberry PI.In other words, there is only one “brain”, i.e., the Raspberry PI [Fig. 1 (b)].
