Might be Repaired through Inquiry Based Activities Gina C. Adam, Brian P. Self, James M. Widmann, Alexa Cobrun, Baheej N. SaoudIntroductionUndergraduate dynamics is often cited as one of the most difficult courses that engineeringstudents must take because many of the topics are in direct conflict with their perception of theworld around them. Newton‟s laws of motion are fundamental to the study of dynamics andstudents are particularly prone to having misconceptions drawn from their daily life interactionwith moving objects. An apple may fall from a tree to the ground faster than a leaf (althoughthey have the same acceleration in the absence of air resistance); two football players maycollide and the smaller

In the past couple of decades they have emerged as a wayto improve the retention for first year students.During the 1980’s and 1990’s there was a renewed interest in improving undergraduateeducation in the United States.

’ actual work has been found poor.15In light of these issues, many researchers have defined engineering retention as simply thenumber of engineering graduates who report being employed in an engineering occupation.16-21By this measure, as of 2008, an estimated 1.2 million out of 2.5 million individuals withengineering as their highest degree were retained in engineering.22 Nonetheless, an obviouslimitation of counting engineers in this way is that, unlike using degree-job relatedness, “it willnot capture individuals using S&E knowledge, sometimes extensively, under [other]occupational titles”.21 In other words, defining engineering based on occupational classificationdoes not capture the full range of career paths that engineers take.14,23

operator, applied in postfix notation. To obtain the transferfunction of this system, one assumes that the initial conditions of the input and output signals arezero and applies the Laplace transform to both sides of this differential equation to giveU(s)a(s) = Y (s)b(s), where U(s) and Y (s) are the Laplace transforms of u(t) and y(t),respectively, and s is a complex variable. This yields the transfer function Y (s)/U(s) = a(s)/b(s),which may be multiplied by a particular transformed input U(s) to find the correspondingtransformed output Y (s).Transfer functions are appealing in that they model dynamic systems as rational functions that canbe added, multiplied, and inverted to reduce networks of interconnected subsystems.

(1955) Hakimi (1962)). Let S = (d1 , · · · , dn ) be a finite list ofnonnegative integers that is nonincreasing. List S is graphic if and only if the finitelist S = (d2 − 1, d3 − 1, · · · , dd1 +1 − 1, dd1 +2 , · · · dn ) has nonnegative integers and isgraphic. The algorithm then follows a recursive method where the theorem is used withS = S until S = {0}. Generating Random Graphs Once we determined the classroom networks in question were graphical, we wantedto generate a random graph from the degree sequence that was likely to representthe network structure of the data. The inspiration came from a popular methodin statistics called bootstrapping. Using Havel-Hakimi Algorithm, a program waswritten in python and
