, MATH 101focuses only on those subjects that are the cornerstone of our first engineering mathematicscourse, namely MATH 201. In other words, MATH 101 deals with all those topics that everyfirst-year engineering student needs to master to succeed in MATH 201. Next, we present asummary of each of the four central units explored in MATH 101. ● Unit 1 - From Arithmetic to Algebra: this unit introduces students to the concepts of number and numerical sets, divisibility, prime factorization, greatest common divisor (gcd), least common multiple (lcm), properties of real numbers, the real line, and absolute value. This unit also includes a review of basic arithmetic, fractions, powers, roots, and order of operations. ● Unit 2

In this paper we will show as to how to access different datasets and basics of featureengineering. A few other practical algorithms and techniques are discussed in detail in AppendixA.The fact of the matter is the diagnosis of cancer, particularly solid tumors, relies heavily on thevisual interpretation of histologic slides by pathologists who use their experience in patternrecognition to render a diagnosis.It has long been established that the precise oncological diagnosis is a difficult and time-consuming skill for humans to master, but an ideal task for machine learning paradigm
new faculty members’ courses reportsignificantly less gains than students in the experienced faculty member’s section. Students in thecourse taught by the tenured faculty member new to this particular course also reportedsignificantly less gains than students in both of the early career faculty members’ sections (seeTable 4).This pattern is not unexpected when faculty begin to use an innovative pedagogy, such as flippedlearning. However, it is not sufficient in determining whether new faculty impart valuableinstruction while still mastering a particular pedagogical approach. In hierarchical linear models,we control first for the effects of the instructor. By adding in additional controls in Model 2 andthen adding the influence of attending

Student success courses are impactful,yet much of the content is shared after the optimum time for the student to be exposed. Learningstudy skills after eight weeks in college is helpful, yet the student may have great difficultyrecovering from the study failures in those first eight weeks.The focus of the pre-course work is to allay the “class start” concerns and fears while buildingsome college-attuned academic foundation.

College o One of 116 California community colleges and an HSI (over 30% of students are Latinx) with an enrollment of approximately 10,000 students per year in credit- granting programs at its main campus near San Luis Obispo city and campuses in Northern and Southern San Luis Obispo County. Unlike Allan Hancock College, Cuesta College has historically served a large percentage of students (50%) outside of its service area. However, as noted in its 2011-16 master plan, this is shifting due to changing educational needs/populations in the county. o San Luis Obispo County is 3,616 square miles, with a 2020 estimated population of 282,424 that is 22.9% Latinx [20].

broad perspectives, even from those that might not otherwise have adoptedthe use of online labs—“laggards” or “late adopters” [14]. And we have worked to satisfy theneed for rigorous study of these instructional settings.Our work focuses on two aspects of a theoretical framework for learner engagement—cognitiveand emotional engagement [15]. Cognitive engagement pertains to students’ thoughtfulness andeffort to master difficult skills and concepts. Emotional engagement pertains to their reactions tothe learning environment, willingness to do the work, and perceptions of value from the content.In line with ways that engagement these forms of engagement are demonstrated, i.e., that theycan be operationalized as self-regulation and motivation [16

These structures are designed to model an agile project design process and amodel of billable hours in consulting. Our graduates need to master managing a diverse projectteam of peers to succeed as entrepreneurial engineers [2]. Given that “students do not naturallybuild non-technical [project management] competencies simply by being involved in a capstoneproject” [3], our PME structures provide an effective framework for developing this skill set.The implementation of PME in

for subsequent labs was that we provided the students a“reference sheet” for configuring the DSA. We felt this was reasonable since it is a relativelycomplex instrument. Students initially very much appreciated this learning tool, however wefound that that by the middle of the semester, students rarely needed to refer to that reference, asthey had mastered operation of the DSA.A third change we implemented for subsequent labs was that when students worked in pairs onthe equipment, the faculty selected which member of the pair would be “pushing the buttons”that day, to configure the oscilloscope and dynamic signal analyzer. (Of course, each partnerwas allowed to “coach.”) At first our students found this to be a bit intrusive, however they
