Each sentence in the responses were analyzed using descriptiveemergent codes. Following our methodology, themes were identified from the data rather thancreated based on a priori theory or
exam questions. To determine the similarity of the SS1 and SS2’s exams in terms of difficulty, we firstclassified the questions from the four exams (two midterms and two finals) into five topicalgroups. These kinds of problems were tested on each exam in each iteration of the class. We thenrandomly sampled the questions in each group, selecting 23 questions in total. We asked severalfaculty members from the Engineering Department to use their expert opinions on the difficultyof each question without identifying which class or exam the questions originated. We wouldthen ask the experts to discuss the questions to evaluate the difficulty of each question and cometo a consensus, assigning each question a score of 1-5.1 – Not at all

By the 1970’s thegraduates were beginning to find more and more success with aerospace companies inmanufacturing and maintenance management positions. By the 1990’s over half of the graduateswere finding careers with major aerospace design companies and performing duties inengineering support. By 2010, the graduates were finding leadership positions across aviationand aerospace in positions ranging from maintenance development to program management ofengineering programs.

It was desired to make the learning tool fun with an innovative method, to change the gate input logic level, which would mimic a “magic show”. Figure 1 shows the typical usage of the device. As seen in Figure 1, top-left image, the light falling on two photo-resistors is translated, using an electronic circuit, into logic 0, which is then applied to the gate-under-test housed in a separate digital circuit unit. Blocking the light, by using hands, one can apply logic 1 to either one or both, the gate input/s. Depending on the gate-under-test, the LED matrix will light up for one of the four possible
