This is as expected result, since part 1 requiredmore critical thinking skills, than part 2. Overall, the students performed 63% percent.This level of success leaves much room for quality improvement, but at least there isconfidence that the assessment procedure outlined in this work is a good tool formeasuring and demonstrating ABET outcome E.[1] www.abet.org[2] Dudeck, K., Grebski, W.

The proposed program consists of anintegrated approach to increase the number and graduation rate of undergraduate students whoenroll in the College of Engineering. As financial constraints are a major disincentive forstudents to enroll and persist in higher education, this project combines scholarships with otherforms of academic and professional support to ensure student persistence and completion of aB.S.

should reinforce underlying ECEconcepts while providing examples of ECE and BME application. Our 305’s portable modulesfor nScope, strike this balance. Since nScope and Digilent Analog Discovery share manysimilarities, we anticipate the earliest partial implantation of these modules in EEL3111C to takeplace in Spring 2018. The researchers will have then have the opportunity to study the wayinstructors employ new materials, the difficulties they face, and what can be done to overcomethose barriers. Perhaps the most challenging HPL principle to implement in a web-based platform is“assessment-centered,” as it entails optimizing the amount and type of formative feedbackprovided to the students.
