“…In higher education, providing constructive feedback on time is a driving factor in the learning process. The facilitator is responsible for providing feedback on the learners' activities [22]. When designing successful courses in the blended environment, issues related to assessment and evaluation must be minimized.…”

Blended learning is a popular teaching mode in today’s higher education system. Course design for blended education presents a challenge for educational specialists. This research aims to identify the essential aspects of course design in undergraduate blended learning. Course content, course structure and delivery, collaborative engagement, learner facilitation, and assessment and evaluation were discovered as aspects of blended learning course design. Based on the identified aspects, a survey questionnaire was designed and pilot tested to check the reliability and validity of the measurement tool. The analysis revealed that the questionnaire was acceptable in terms of psychometric characteristics after removing four items. Therefore, 23 items remained in the final questionnaire, which was considered reliable and valid for the context. The information was gathered using an online questionnaire from academic staff at Sri Lankan state universities attached to the departments conducting degree programs in the computing discipline. There were 97 participants included in the final dataset. The results were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The results revealed that ‘assessment and evaluation’ was highly considered when designing undergraduate blended learning courses, while other aspects which are also imperative, have been paid less attention by the university academicians.

“…Uhlig et al have shown the effectiveness of small group projects in both online and onsite courses for teaching [69,70,71] . A small group project designed to allow students to "play with" some concepts of quantum computing was introduced three years ago into a cybersecurity course required for all students in our university's MSCS and MSEE programs.…”

“…Usually, only a small number of students are adequately prepared for studying quantum computing. However, properly designed collaborations among students in small groups improve student-student interaction in additions to student-teacher interaction and enhance learning opportunities for weaker students [70] . We plan to use a wide variety of interactions in the computer systems security course and the two quantum computing courses proposed in the preceding sections.…”

“…Engineering faculty have been faced with the reality that students are using Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools to complete writing assignments which are often submitted for grades as part of the academic process [1]. Many faculty and universities are playing catchup since the AI tools are new and AI has experienced rapid adoption by students [2].…”

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming more widely used by engineering students especially with writing reports. This paper focuses on the use of AI writing assistance tool, ChatGPT, in mechanical engineering reports. Instructors have noticed various levels of AI-assistance in reports often by observing "non-natural" word choices which are not consistent with the way the student communicates verbally. It is often difficult to confirm the level of AI-assistance in a report. This paper summarizes findings of AI-assisted writings in reports, and concludes with a summary of the challenges based on recent observations.
