15 Project Close - Out 8 Planning & Scheduling 16 Educating the OccupancyTable 1 lists topics that are covered in the capstone courses. Sustainability are integrated in thevarious topics to reinforce its importance. None of the topics are covered in great detail, sincethis is left to previous courses where they were studied at length. However, a new slant onsustainability is given which hopefully gives the student a better understanding of the "the bigpicture".The following paragraphs briefly discuss those topics.

Session ETD 525 Renewable Energy Study Ray Floyd Northwest College WyomingAbstract Through a NASA grant, the Science and Math Division at xxxxxxxxxxx College wasable to start a multiple step project on the study of the benefits and effects for renewable energysources applicable to local conditions. In particular, a wind generator was installed as the firststep. The second step, or project, was to determine the effectiveness of the wind generator in thelocal area. Once that was completed, the next step plans to install solar

regular basis, typically each semester. During this time, the advisor reviews the student’sprogress, planned programs, and any pre-requisites that may be needed. The biggest problemwith the academic advisor is that they are most often providing advice to a large number ofstudents, not the best role for a Mentor.Within industry, Mentors are most often limited to a small number of mentees, typically no morethan three. In the Mentor role, the industry engineer may help both interns and active students,providing advice on classes to be completed, current problems, or work related items. TheMentor is typically an experienced individual that has been there and done that. The Mentorseldom tells the mentee how and what, but more frequently provides hints

) under the Louis Stokes Alliance for MinorityParticipation (LS-AMP) project. These students had completed their second year at thecommunity college, and plan on pursuing a bachelor’s degree in an engineering discipline. Thecourse started with project-based teaching of fundamentals of electrical circuits, electronics, andinstrumentation followed by introduction to mechanical design. It concluded with design projectsusing the skills that students learned from the aforementioned subjects. The projects aimed atpromoting active learning, research, problem solving, and understanding the design process. Thepilot course was used to evaluate the instructional materials to be utilized later in developing anew junior level course in the computer

As a result, topic9 was briefly discussed and only critical items associated with this topic were covered.In addition, a total of seven laboratory activities (five hardware labs and two demo labs) areconducted to get students familiar with associated electric power and power electronicstechnology. Originally, four mobile demonstration labs were planned as discussed in Section II.However, due to the time restrictions associated with the term project progress, only the first

For the parts that have complex geometries, additivemanufacturing is likely to be used to save time and energy. Zhu et al. developed an iAtractiveframework that contains three processes, namely, additive process, subtractive process, andinspection process7. It provides an intelligent solution to manufacture products that have internalfeatures. Besides, the inspection process provides feedback to improve the previous decision.Newman et al. proposed a Re-Plan process planning based on the iAtractive framework8.Using a robotic arm for 3D printing of large objects is a potential

This incoming large flux of students is essential to reducethe shortage of STEM graduates in the United States2-4. Studies have shown that students whoparticipate in STEM programs before college increase their chances to succeed5-8. Theseprograms provide them with important knowledge and skills and help them gain a betterunderstanding of science and engineering careers.This paper describes a two-week STEM Summer Enrichment Program (STEM-SEP) designedfor high school students. STEM-SEP’s goal is to improve the recruitment and preparation ofstudents, particularly those from underrepresented groups

The evaluators readily identified the students as “engaged in creative problem solving”.Group assignments and tests can also be used to promote cooperative activities in the classroom.For example, inquiry-based learning activities (IBLA) consist of presenting teams of studentswith a physical situation and asking them to predict what will happen. Self et al. developed oneof the first Inquiry-based learning activities (IBLA) for a Dynamics course, which involves thedirection of friction and motion for a rolling object and assigning quizzes the day before theactivity/experiment [11].

Session ETD 506Figure 2: Photograph of the Golden Gate Bridge. (Max Pixel, n.d.)The builders of Tacoma narrows were under strong pressure to economize. The original plans forthe Tacoma Bridge Incorporated many safety features. These were considered to be tooexpensive at the time. The plans were revised by an award-winning engineer. Because thisnew design met existing code and it was much less expensive than the original design, it wasselected (Othmar, Kármán, & Woodruff, 1941). In 1936, construction costs were $6,400,000,adjusted for inflation $113,602,000Shortly after construction, the bridge began to rise and fall whenever there was moderate wind.

dutiesbetween the parties need to be clearly delineated and understood. While all grant deliverableswere completed as planned, there was some confusion as to which specific pieces of curriculumwere to be developed by Bay College and which pieces were to be developed by Michigan TechUniversity. This led to a certain amount of frustration and duplication of effort, so a meetingwas scheduled at the beginning of year two to very clearly outline the expected deliverables ofboth parties before the year began. This seems simple, but has been an important takeaway ofthe development of this partnership thus far and is recommended for other institutions looking toform similar partnerships elsewhere. Partners should clearly state which curriculum will bedeveloped

In explicit form, the equation of a surface is z = f(x, y). The explicit formrequires the values of the two variables x and y in order to compute the value of z and locate thepoint, P(x, y, z). The explicit functional form treats the
