The graduate assistants were informedupfront of the risk involved, that even though I personally believed in this project, there were noguarantees that it would be successful. However, regardless of the outcome they knew that therewould be enough “meat” for their theses. In parallel to the work at FAU, some theoretical thermodynamic-related sponsored-research work was initiated at the University of Michigan. We all agreed that opencommunication is crucial and that we would establish an ongoing line of e-mail communication.I felt that

Baumert, Evans, and Geiser13 found that gender influenced technicalself-efficacy, which in turn affected technical problem-solving. The women in their study hadlower self-estimates of competence and technical problem solving scores than the men andattributed their failure to lack of ability rather than to lack of persistence. This is in sharp contrastto women’s perceptions of their problem

This example illustrates how scaling analysis can beused to both interpret performance data as well as to extract useful characterization parametersfrom the data. As such, it underscores the advantages of scaling analysis as a learning tool tohone students’ intuition.1.

Additionally, the use of impulse ultra-wideband signals represented a newwireless communication scheme that students had to master at the beginning of the researchexperience.
