[1]. Assessment of every aspect of curricular, co-curricular, and larger educational environmental aspects is the norm. Evidence-based decision-making leads those working in every aspect of higher education today to seek out or deviseassessment tools and plans to observe efficacy and introduce well-considered evidence-basedchanges where room for improvement in outcomes seems indicated. The National Survey ofStudent Engagement, or NSSE, is a widely applied instrument in the U.S. and Canada. NSSEallows participating institutions to get a periodic high-level snapshot of how their incoming First-year and near-graduation (Senior) students compare to one another, and compare to those fromother similar institutions, in their self-perceptions of

The basic front panel in Figure 7 is shown operating infeedback mode, where the duty cycle is adjusting automatically to force the output voltage tomatch the target value. Note that a planned enhancement to this program also provides the userwith the ability to vary feedback gain and modality to study the effects of stability and settlingtime. Again, by implementing all of the control algorithms in software, these changes areexpedited compared to a hardware-only implementation.

In ASGM communities, these have includedmercury detoxification programs [19], territorial local planning that keeps ASGM away fromwatersheds [20], the desire of groups that have been discriminated to organize to gain voice andpower [21], etc. For these type of positive adaptations to occur, communities must exhibit thefollowing characteristics: Collective self-esteem (love who you are as a community); Culturalidentity (know who you are as a community); Social humor (be able to laugh at who you are);and State honesty (transparency between local/state government and communities) [14].

One student commented to the instructorthat she loves to dance and to create and to see how dancing and programming could worktogether was great. This experience supported prior research by the authors that a hands-on,project-based learning approach in a computing camp strengthens teamwork and problemsolving skills [13].Future plans including offering this approach in other computing camps for elementary girls.Having a larger sample size will enable more data collection and assessment of the

Theauthor intends to draw on Foucault’s interpretation of Bentham’s panopticon. These are not one-to-one analogies as the instructor does not offer a “performance” in the lecture hall nor is theobserving instructor invisible to the students in the computer lab as she would be in apanopticon. The analogies hold at the level of the underlying assumptions while designing thesespaces vis-à-vis what type of interactions in the space are anticipated and planned for. (a) (b

In the short workshop time available, we were not able todislodge these beliefs.Recommendations for staff developers and workshop organizersBased on our reflective analysis of the workshops conducted to date we make the followingrecommendations as initial determinants:1. The participants should be required to pre-read the materials and to complete pre-workshopactivities to explore their own problems. Also, workshop leaders should communicate the entirecourse content to the participants in advance of the workshop, allowing for modifications. If wehad, the participants could have framed their problems in light of the planned discussion. Thefacilitators

We operationalized impact using London’s [7] framework to capture our scientific, societal, and contextual impact. As individuals, we completed reflections describing the impact we had, the areas we wanted to impact, and the strategic or intentional actions we planned to take to accomplish our goals. We subsequently discussed how our proposed impacts evolved based on our experiences. Reflexivity The purpose of this activity was to expand our understanding of the

The effectiveness of theproject in introducing IoT to students can be improved by dedicating more time to this topic andcovering more background and implementation methods in the field of IoT. In addition, in futurestudies we plan to utilize other quantification methods in addition to student surveys such as examgrades and project grades. These will create a more comprehensive measure

This model will be translated into standards-alignedinstructional materials, including videos, lesson plans, and curricular units, and will be madewidely available to ensure that all students have access to high-quality, authentic engineeringcontent. For example, a K-12 science curriculum could be coupled with a model of DLI inengineering to encourage students to use authentic engineering literacy practices to solve grade-appropriate design problems. Similarly, for undergraduate engineering education, DLI couldsupport a problem-based learning (PBL) engineering pedagogy
