flow between the Drain (D) and the Source (S) terminals. When this occurs, the load is energized. If the load is inductive, such as a motor or an electromagnet, it is recommended to add a flyback diode in parallel with the load to suppress voltage spikes that appear when the load is rapidly turned off. A typical control circuit is shown in Fig. 3.Figure 3 Controlling loads with an N-channel power MOSFET transistor (GQP30N06L) and Pulse Width Modulated signals. Suggested activities a) Assemble the circuit of Fig. 3 and use a 12V fan as the load. b) Write microcontroller code to command different speeds to the fan by using PWM signals of different duty cycles e.g., 0, 50

Engineering, CE Seminar, andCE Design Capstone, as well as elective courses like Hazardous Waste Treatment, emphasizeethical decision-making and provide specialized applications of engineering ethics. Althoughother courses incorporate discussions of ethics as a part of the course objectives, VMI currentlytracks only the aforementioned courses for ABET's continuous improvement process [13].To ensure the program meets ABET SO 4 requirements, VMI conducts annual assessments andevaluations of these assessments across key CE courses (Table 1).

significant forunderrepresented and minoritized students. With this, there is also a need for insights into theircommunication and participation styles.In [25]’s paper, they wrote about the importance of oral communication among engineers. Publicspeaking, meetings, and other communication mediums with technical and non-technicalpersonnel audiences are present in many fields. Within engineering education, these skills arecrucial for developing and advancing a career. Because of this, the authors state that engineeringeducation should focus on informal communication (i.g., public speaking) and team-basedexperiences. Communication is at the heart of lesson proficiency and professional expansion.[26] studied dialogue patterns in peer collaboration. From
address this in future offerings will be to charge a nominal fee to learners sothat the course has a greater perception of value.Other courses could offer training the math and problem solving, computer skills, and customerinteraction skills that industry wishes to cultivate. It may seem that these skills are not thosedirectly related to advanced manufacturing. On the contrary, these skills are the kinds of flexiblelife-long learning skills that will serve workers no matter what industry changes are ahead.This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Award #2119654.References[1] Hsieh, S., & Barger, M., & Marzano, S.
