On the whole, the faculty and students are satisfiedwith this project as a suitable capstone for the first-year course.Acknowledgements:The authors would like to acknowledge the work of all of the faculty in ENGR 100 aswell as the students and customers that made this project possible.

the initial and final (DREAM Day) I.I.’s were included in theanalysis. Comparing the DREAM Day data from KIPP mentees to the control taken post-DREAM showed that mentees outscored non-mentees on all four questions of interest(Q1,Q2,Q4,Q5). Interestingly, non-mentees post-scores were significantly higher than menteespre-scores on Q1 (74.1% versus 54.8%) and Q4 (70.4% versus 50.0%), suggesting that DREAMmay be attracting mid or lower performing students at KIPP. Differences between non-menteespost-scores and mentees pre-scores were not significant on Q2 and Q5. 100 100 AHS 78.3 80.8

However, there are also transformations that changes the shape of the graph, such asg(x) = 2f(x), or g(x) = f(3x).Quadratic Functions Another mathematical concept used in the demonstrations is quadratic functions.Students first learn that the height of an object in free fall follows this quadratic function:Where, is the height of the object (in meters) at any given time t (seconds), is the initialvelocity (meters per second), is the initial height, t is time, and is the gravity constant, 2which is 9.8 m/s .The time it takes the object reach its maximum height is given

, such as a pre-and-post course skillsassessment, can be implemented in the future to address this shortcoming. Additionally, an even Page 22.1397.12closer interaction between lecture and laboratory seems to be required; perhaps only one course,in a mixed lecture-lab classroom should be implemented. As indicated by the student feedbackand by design the presented course does well to help closes the gap between college educationand BME professional practice.References1. Lee J.
