Overall, this portable stormwater collection and treatment systemprovides an effective and economical affordable solution to process non-point pollutions,especially the stormwater runoff for urban residents.Spring 2017 Mid-Atlantic ASEE Conference, April 7-8, 2017 MSUBibliography[1] Savage, N., and Diallo, M.

The ill-structured problem of giving the initial velocity direction without magnitudeand final velocity direction without magnitude in cell phone camera shots as the projectileinformation has been given routinely to gauge the development of fluid intelligence when theelapsed time between the two camera shots is known. In such a case, the position of the (9.8m/s/s * t) vertical vector needs to be moved sideways until it would fit into a triangle since thelength of v0 and vf are not known. The velocity addition with a parallelogram construction inconstant acceleration was devised for ball throwing using

R is considered tobe enhanced and has an upgraded implementation of the S language. Most of the code written forS runs unaltered on the R platform. R provides a wide variety of statistical and graphical techniques, mainly linear andnonlinear modelling, classical statistical tests, time-series analysis, classification and clustering.R is also used as the vehicle of choice for research in statistical methodology and this platformprovides an open source route to participation in this activity. One of R’s key advantages is thatit is easy to work with and it is well-designed for publication of quality plots

where the student explains how s/he solved the problem. To answer thissection, we ask the students to imagine that they are trying to explain what they did to their boss,what the problem was, and how it was solved. Students should assume that their boss knowsabout computer hardware and the current subject. Thus, they should use the correct language andthe right terminology. Some labs ask the students to write a procedure to solve the problem theysolved, assuming that the procedure would become part of the company’s documentation andtraining for other technicians. Some labs require collecting data from the conducted experiment.Students most format the data in tables and charts and present an analysis explaining themeaning of the data. This

This isaccomplished by holding workshops (in-person or online), updating the syllabus, providingstudents with an assignment or project, changing or adjusting the topics covered in the course,utilizing rubrics, among other activities.Every semester, there is one Dean’s meeting for every School with all the CCLs invited toparticipate. During that meeting, the CCLs report on the progress and difficulties theyencountered. At the end of the two-year cycle the CCLs provide a final report

Lab managers haveaccess to the lab 24/7 and may practice using the equipment on their own prior to meeting withtheir groups. The role of the lab manager for each of these modules is to ask the freshmenquestions to ensure a uniform learning experience. Specifically, the lab managers ask: 1. What mathematical equation(s) will you use to model your system? 2. What assumptions did you make to develop your model? 3. How will you test your model in lab? What experimental protocols will you use to verify the model? 4. How does the predicted

Theorganization defines undergraduate research as “an inquiry or investigation conducted by anundergraduate student that makes an original intellectual or creative contribution to thediscipline.” 3From the myriad of supporting members represented amongst the 900 plus colleges
