this case asks the student to draw the vector vˆQ,guess as a guessto the true velocity direction vector vˆQ of point Q. The question will be graded ascorrect if the true velocity direction is within a certain tolerance δ, that is, if vˆQ − vˆQ,guess < δ. Other question formats within PrairieLearn include numericalanswers and multiple choice. On the right side of the question page, the student can seetheir current mastery score, as well as question-specific information including thecurrent recommendation level, the number of points that will be awarded if this questionis answered correctly, the number of points that will be deducted if this question isanswered incorrectly, and the number of times this question has already been attempted.The

Some constitute a series over multiple days. Significant time for discussion and Q&A isprovided at the end of each seminar. A survey instrument is used to assess the impact of theseminar. Overall, the seminars have been very well received, as evinced by survey data presentedin a later section of this paper. The following section provides examples of the kind of materialthat is presented in these seminars.Ingenuity in NatureAccording to Mechanical Engineering Professor Robert L.

As an alternative, have the school liaison require the high school students do this in advance.5.
