The orchestra has been avehicle for talented students studying engineering since 2002, and shows the Renaissance sideof their education. Its concerts often take place in front of sizable groups of people (e.g., OCO’s2017 Great Hall concert at Cooper Union in New York City), thus reflecting positively on thecollege’s multidisciplinary approach to

The biggest challenge for this course is to give students some insight intomultiple engineering disciplines and to help them make an informed decision about their majorchoice. This course also heavily relied on hands-on and in-person activities until Fall 2019.Midway through Spring 2020, the course was moved to synchronous online mode. In Fall 2020,the common lecture portion of the course was offered in a hybrid/converged mode. Instructorstaught from a university classroom and the lecture was simultaneously broadcasted.

In this emulation students get the opportunity to perform through all standard softwaredevelopment phases in Agile method including requirements analysis, user-story backlog creation. Oncethe backlog is ready, developers plan for sprints and drive each sprint equipped with daily-scrum,retrospective and planning the next sprint. The entire process is driving through use of IST&P. Once thisstudy is done, our collected data will give us an insight about how this protocol impacts the learningeffectiveness and how it engages the students.

The rationale behind this question was to reflect on remote classroomexperience and indicate if it can be related to a traditional in-person experience, given that by theend of summer 2020, the students have experienced at least two semesters of fully remoteclassroom experience.

This diversity in how students aim to utilize theirBME degree may reflect diversity in their motivation to study BME, their educationalexpectations, and even their perception of the field [2], [4]. Understanding the relationshipbetween these factors would allow BME programs, at both the curricular and individual courselevels, to better balance students’ interests and

The students were also asked to verify and report their obtained values against thosereported in the literature as much as possible. Additionally, the students were also asked toidentify the sources of error in their experimental model that would have resulted in deviations(if any) of their calculated friction coefficient values. Majority of the students (greater than 90%)were able to report values and reflect upon their results and the deviations they observed.Considering that this is not a controlled laboratory experiment where all the equipment andparameters are strictly controlled, the simple experimental models built by the students workedquite well to

information registered in a multidimensional code [6, 7].The term episodic reflects its capacity to hold integrated episodes that extend both spatially andtemporally. It is a buffer because it offers a multidimensional code that allows information fromdifferent subsystems to be integrated and linked to LTM. Such a multidimensional capacity tendsto be computationally demanding, hence the buffer's limited capacity [8]. The buffer is assumedto be controlled by the CE, using conscious awareness as an effective retrieval strategy [9-11].The episodic buffer's prominent feature is information chunking. Chunking is where storagecapacity increases by integrating several disparate features into a single whole [12]. The episodicbuffer involves the more complex

of:performance accomplishments, vicarious learning, social or verbal persuasion, and emotionalarousal [4, 11]. Performance accomplishments or “mastery of experiences” are believed to be amajor source of self-efficacy beliefs. They are past direct experiences that demonstrate to aperson that they are able to successfully perform a future task (i.e., if you have done it before andperformed well, you can do it again). High self-efficacy evolves from success in pastexperiences and low self-efficacy from failures at activities within the given domain. Vicariousexperiences are observations of others successfully completing a task (i.e., if they can do it, socan I). However, since observing is not a direct reflection on one’s one skill it is believed tohave a
