The author also gathered feedback from 13 students who had participated in theAMechanics Race activity in the course prior to the Spring 2020 semester (COVID-19 pandemic)using the same survey. The survey is given in Appendix B, Figure 14 and results are presented.Survey Questions- Short AnswerPlease write 1-2 sentences summarizing your opinion (positive/neutral/negative) of theAMechanics Race activity and provide any feedback for the professor. • Past Students (prior to Spring 2020)- 13 Responses o “Enjoyable

2 ECE 2 MEGrade Distribution: The number of students receiving A grades in their project work was foundto be 79%. The percentage of B grades was 14% and the number of C grades was 7%. This gradedistribution appears to indicate grade inflation. The large number of A’s relative to the number ofB and C’s is related to the number of projects that were judged to be worth 1 unit (9 credit hours)per student. In this review, it was determined that 29% of the projects completed weremarginally worth 1 unit or did not worth 1 unit at all. However, It must be emphasized that an Agrade should reflect one unit of excellent work by the student, a B grade should reflect one unitof
