. Rather, a 12-factor model was extractedwith X2 (435) = 921.51, p.80) among the 6 presumed factors, suggesting considerable redundancy among theclaimed factors. In short, the full data set did not support the 6-factor structure proposed by theMCI’s developers.Using a loading criterion of greater than .40, the 7-factor solution showed the simplest and mostinterpretable structure since five of the twelve extracted factors loaded on with single items(factors 6, 9 10 11 and 12). However, noting Table 1, 5 items failed to load on any of the twelvefactors for the varimax rotated factor solutions of less than 0.40 (Q5,Q8, Q16, Q17, and Q22).Some item crossloadings (Q13 and Q 24) making the items somewhat difficult to interpret.Several factors showed

This assignment was designed to evaluate students’performance towards objectives #1 and #7 and to provide an opportunity for students to work indiverse teams, perform independent research, prepare a report, and present their results. Eachteam was asked to submit a 10-12 page report of their findings and to prepare a 15-minutepresentation (including Q&A) to be delivered in the class. Page 14.1110.8The following topics were chosen by the 9 student teams: ocean/wave energy, water resourcesand pollution, sustainable cities, solar energy, trash incinerator power plant

We were pretty much in the dark to what our subgroups weredoing.” This lack of coordination may have resulted in the poor quality of the final product.Another person stated: “We noticed some possible error in Q 1-5 but not for sure.” So the Page 14.330.12teammates didn’t do a good job of reviewing each other’s parts and/or didn’t necessarily assignquestions in the strength area of each individual.Another set of teams to compare are the three teams

image to havea greater contrast, the students first converted the RGB (red, green, and blue components) colorimage to the YIQ (luminance channel and chrominance channels) format, and then equalized theluminance component Y (which contains 93% of signal energy) only. Notice that the colorcomponents I and Q were unchanged and left as they were. Next, the students repacked the Ychannel back to the YIQ format, and converted the equalized YIQ format back to its RGB colorformat as displayed in Figure 10b. The indexed-color image equalization and enhancement of thecolor image by equalizing each RGB color channel were conducted, respectively, and theircorresponding equalized effects were verified. a.

Also, foreach presentation the AB members filled out an evaluation rubric to be utilized for feedbackpurposes. Furthermore, a poster session was held during the extended lunch break.
