papersthat were reviewed: 5 in pre-college, 25 in college, and 6 in post-college. A code sheet was developed using the categories necessary to answer the two researchquestions. The categories for the code sheet were ethnicity, race, gender, language(s), generationin the U.S., generation in college, and institution (college-only). When reviewing each article,the authors noted how each category was used for the purpose of data analysis. Additionally, inthe review of each article, the authors also noted the main conclusions of each study as theserelated to the status of Latinxs in engineering. After reviewing the majority of the assignedarticles, the authors met to review the preliminary findings and patterns they saw in theirrespective notes

Students indicated the title(s) of Design Heuristic(s)incorporated into their concepts during the idea generation session. For example, a directapplication of Provide sensory feedback in a design concept would be to add lights to indicatehow much force a doctor is exerting while using a medical device. For each individual concept,we documented students’ reported use of heuristics as well as how they applied the heuristic(s)they reported.Subsequently, we analyzed the extent to which heuristic-driven ideas from individuals werepresent in team-selected ideas.

Theory and Mechatronics.3.1 PID Control in a Robot Arm Figure 2: Robotic ArmConsider a robotic arm (Figure 2) with four joints:1: Turntable, 2: Bicep, 3: Forearm, 4: WristJoints are moved by a DC/Servo motor. The Robotic Arm controller consists offour PIDs (one per joint). 𝐾𝑝, 𝐾𝑖, 𝐾𝑑 for each PID loop is calculated separately.This process can be time-consuming. Alternatively, you can tune all four PID loopssubject to system-level requirements. MATLAB has the tools to calculate PIDvalues. The transfer function of a PID controller is found by taking the Laplacetransform.We can also define a PID controller in MATLAB directly using the transferfunction, for example: Kp = 1; Ki = 1; Kd = 1; C = Kp + Ki/s + Kd*s C

students’ experiences as they leave their capstone(aka senior) design courses and enter engineering workplaces. The project is currently in itsinitial phase, with instrument development and pilot testing currently underway.Multiple studies show significant gaps between school and work with respect to engineeringpractice 1-3. That gap is clear, for example, in a recent American Society of MechanicalEngineering (ASME) survey that found weaknesses among new graduates in skills includingpractical experience, systems perspectives, project management, problem solving, and design 4, 5.Equally important, industry supervisors identified such gaps more frequently than early careerengineers or academic department heads 4, reinforcing Stevens et al.’s claim

At the completionof our fifth year, this poster presentation provides an opportunity to present data on the successof our S-STEM program, as well as share some of the best practices learned and applied. TheUSM STEM Scholars Bridge Program has been a model for blending the elements ofrecruitment, retention, and placement into an integrated, comprehensive but non-intrusiveprogram that promotes student success in transitioning from high schools and communitycolleges

By modeling the input as both instances and sequences, a peak F Score of0.459 was obtained, after observing a student for just two seconds. Finally, an unsupervisedmethod yielded a model which could determine if a student would struggle after just 1 secondwith 59.9% accuracy.1 IntroductionIn this work, the role of machine learning for planning student intervention is investigated.Specifically, t his w ork a sks t wo q uestions: ( i) C an a s tudent’s s truggles b e p redicted basedon body language?

Students accumulate transfer student capital,or knowledge about the transfer process, at sending institutions (i.e., the place(s) where studentsbegin their degree paths), receiving institutions (i.e., the final degree-granting institution), andpotentially from non-institutional sources. The development of transfer student capital maycome from experiences related to learning and study skills, course learning, perceptions of thetransfer process, academic advising and counseling, and experiences with faculty.

bringing the entrepreneurial mindset to engineering education. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017 The rise of rapid prototyping in a biomedical engineering design sequenceIntroductionPrototyping has always played an important role in the design process as way to determineconceptual viability and iterate upon an idea. Over the last decade, the decreasing costs,improved accuracy, and wide-spread availability of rapid prototyping (RP) technology haslowered the barriers to early-stage prototyping. At universities, the result has been the rise ofmaker’s spaces, skill-based pop-up classes and rapid design challenges. In this paper, we explorethe history of rapid prototyping throughout the 1990’s and 2000

The results suggest why different ideageneration tools are important for novice engineers, and which in contexts students may find thetools most valuable.

The main difference was that an electropermanent magnet is utilized in this system to hold and release the rescue package to be deliveredto the survivor (s).Figure 10 shows the collision avoidance system being tested for the search quadcopter. The firstflight test was conducted by hovering the quadcopter roughly 3 feet above the ground andactivating the altitude hold flight mode. The copter was then slowly pitched forward towards awall until the safety zone was breached and the Arduino took over the pitch control.The students presented their work both at student conferences and a professional conference.20
