system, will be based on a 2’s compliment numbering system where the concatenationof the sign bit and the 23 bits of the fraction, {S, F [22:0]}, make up a 2’s compliment numberwith a value between -110 and 0.9999998807907104492187510. Figure 2 – IEEE 754 protocol for single-precision floating point numbers [12].The exponent of the floating-point number, in contrast to IEEE’s exponent format, is also basedon 2’s compliment numbers and falls between a range of -128 and 127. Thus, the range of numbersallowed to be represented using this floating-point numbering system is -1.701412 x 103810 to1.701412 x 103810 with a resolution of 3.50325 x 10-4610. This give a level of accuracy that is veryprecise compared to fixed-point numbers

The class discussion helps some students, but others remain unclear about the distinctionsbetween the notions of domain, problem in the domain context, and solution. The key questionthat motivated our work was, how do we help students overcome such misconceptions and developdeep understanding?In the CONSIDER approach, following the lecture(s) on the topic, the instructor would post thehomework on the CONSIDER system. The instructor will also specify a deadline by which eachstudent will be required to submit her answer. The homework may be similar to the one abovebut, for this discussion, we assume there is only one question, item (3) from the example. Oncethe instructor has posted the homework, each

level of difficultyencountered by an author, in the same way that strength-of-schedule ratings are used indetermining rankings of FBS teams in college football.Most reputation systems [7–9] also include a measure for “spread,” the degree to which aparticular reviewer rates different work differently. Suppose the average rating for all students is4 on a scale of 1 to 5. Then a reviewer who answers “4” to every rubric item on every reviewmight well be close to the average score received by each author. But that reviewer would not bevery credible, because (s)he failed to distinguish between the quality of different pieces of work.So reviewers are given more credence if they have a higher spread.2.3 Rejoinders, or “back-reviews.” Just as reviewers

3/18/18, 4:45 PMWork-in-Progress: Development of a Virtual Reality Educational Game for Waste Management: Attack of the Recyclops1. Introduction Negative impacts of human consumption and waste on the natural environment is a long-researched topic, which led the international scientific confidence in the human-influencedclimate change to reach its highest point (95-100% likelihood) in 2014 [1]–[6]. A significantreason for this impact is the fact that much of the waste ends in landfills, rather than recyclingfacilities. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)’s most recent report shows that morethan 50% of the 259-million-ton municipal solid waste (MSW) goes to landfills [7]. This waste,in turn, rots and produces the

His team also assisted in the deployment of 84 TACMAV systems in 2005. Around that time he volunteered as a science advisor and worked at the Rapid Equipping Force during the summer of 2005 where he was exposed to a number of unmanned systems technologies. His initial group composed of about 6 S&T grew to nearly 30 between 2003 and 2010 as he transitioned from a Branch head to an acting Division Chief.

Next came an introduction to Linux (since in order to minimizeinstallation issues and related troubleshooting, we have students program on our remote servers),more on binary numbers, including the 2’s complement representation, the hexadecimal numbersystem, etc. By the end of the first week of classes, the first program involving simple user input,a computation and

submission’s time. Note that this time may be anunderestimate, as the time doesn’t include the time the student spent reading the instructions anddeveloping the first submission. If two successive submissions are separated by at least 10minutes, we assume the student was perhaps taking a break (this is not a perfect measure but thebest we can do as we cannot directly observe the student), and thus we exclude that time fromthe total time. For every student (two are shown in Figure 2), such total time is computed. Wethen compute the average of the shortest 20% of such times to yield the baseline time. The sameapproach is done for the number of attempts per student. Figure 2: Definition of struggle rate for a particular CA.Figure 2’s

Another approach that holds great potential to enhancelaboratory experience for online education is the use of computer-based modeling and simulation(M&S) tools. Simulation based virtual laboratories emulate lab equipment and configurations inhighly realistic 3D environments and can deliver highly effective learning experiences.Computer-based modeling and simulation has been effectively used to model and simulate awide range of problems in a variety of fields, with particular success in science and engineering.For example, medical students and practitioners can safely perform surgeries on virtual patientsin a simulated environment to enhance their
