"Desirable Characteristics of DataRepositories for Federally Funded Research" [1], outlining a set of recommended features andqualities that are considered desirable for data repositories handling research data resulting fromfederally funded research. The document establishes a set of standards and guidelines to ensurethat data resulting from federally funded projects is preserved in repositories that effectivelymanage and disseminate it.On August 25, 2022, Dr. Alondra Nelson, then Acting Director of OSTP, issued a Memorandum[2] recommending that all federal agencies formulate new plans or update existing ones,outlining their approach to ensuring public access to peer-reviewed publications and the researchdata associated with federally funded

developingfoundational knowledge of engineering professions [7], which makes them an ideal time to helpstudents develop and test their hands-on skills and intuition in engineering design. By creatingmore opportunities for students to develop their engineering design technical skills throughhands-on learning experiences while working with their peers and developing importantprofessional skills, engineering educators can continue to help students develop and gainvaluable engineering design experience. This paper demonstrates a project designed to help ECEstudents gain such experience by working on a wireless sensor node project in their second yearof their program.3. BackgroundThe wireless sensor node project discussed in this paper was developed for a project

In an effort to develop a flexible curriculum tomeet a variety of student interests, multiple stress-related contexts (i.e., test anxiety, sports,gaming) were provided for students to choose.Researcher-Teacher PartnershipTwo teachers implemented the curriculum unit three days apart. They both participated in aweeklong curriculum-writing workshop during the summer, two months prior to implementingthe unit.
