(Analysis of another programmers algorithm design)Teams must manage their design process outside of the class time which makes it difficult forthe instructional team (instructor, graduate teaching assistance, and undergraduate peer teachingassistants) to observe and support the team’s design process and dynamics. Therefore, weintroduce a series of smaller design challenges to provide students an opportunity to hone theirdesign skills. Table 1 outlines some of the Design Challenges we have been using.Introducing a Design ChallengeTeams are given a full 2 hour classroom session to complete a design challenge andcommunicate the results.

Laboratory experiments areuseful in teaching students skills needed for employment, and to reinforce theoretical conceptsintroduced during lectures. However, the students sometimes do not receive timely feedbackbecause it is extremely time-consuming for the instructors to grade the hands-on exercises. Thestudents usually do not have the opportunities to fix the mistakes they made in previous labs dueto lack of timely feedback. These challenges were addressed by the creation of an automatedgrading and feedback system, called BroadReach Extended, for locally designed hands-onexercises in Information Technology (IT) courses.
