Students claimed that understanding how a hanging chain’s shape isdetermined from equilibrium helped solidify their understanding of how an arch is able to stand,and that a catenary is the optimal shape for an arch. Students also commented on theirunderstanding that the “[s]urface area of the blocks affects stability” and that “friction plays acrucial role in keeping the blocks together”.The Tanks and Culverts activity displayed positive results for understanding how granular mediabehaves in pipe structures.

Notable challenges that can impact a dual/jointprogram include having consistent data, alignment of curriculum, providing adequatesupport services, and supporting student with academic difficulties.Data ConsistencyThe lack of conformity with regards to data poses significant challenges when dealingwith different institutions. One major question is whether a joint/dual degree programstudent should be classified as such when s/he first enters into a program at thecommunity college or at some defined stage afterwards

Fox, Ehmoda, andCharniak (2012) describe the underlying principle behind work on authorship attribution to be aset of statistically quantifiable characteristics of the writing style reflected by the word/phrasechoices of individuals which make it easy to distinguish one author from the other.

tocommunicate with the Arduino is extremely easy to install because it is an Add On inMATLAB®. The code to set up the input and output channels is simpler to understand sostudents would hopefully not be frustrated by a bunch of pre-written code that seemedmysterious. The wiring would be simpler since students would not have to use a screwdriver tosecure wires into a terminal. The Arduino is significantly cheaper than the myDAQ so it wouldbe possible to purchase additional units, allowing students to work in groups of two rather thanthree.Bibliography1. M. J.

There is no currently existing CIfor networking and telecommunications. Our initial results seem to suggest that the developmentof a CI for this field would be very useful. However, we would like this CI to be applicable to adiverse set of students, with respect to both their culture and their educational level(undergraduate and graduate). At the moment, the development of such a CI is still in an earlystage.In summary, this study expands the breadth of knowledge on student preconceptions in STEMby including the subject of QoS in telecommunications, identifying some of thepreconception(s
