Theteam expanded the camp curriculum to include more in depth coverage of concepts as well asadditional content. Cyber Science, like Cyber Discovery, uses a microcontroller to conveyconcepts and provide a level of engagement for the students while integrating the engineering,computer science, and liberal arts disciplines. The disciplines are completely interwoven. In agiven week, students will learn various cyber themed concepts6. For instance, students learnabout artificial intelligence by programming the microcontroller to read input from a sensor tonavigate a given route. Then they

physiological functions in a hospital setting. Sensors today are effective for single measurements, however, are not integrated into a “complete body area network”, where many sensors are working simultaneously on an individual patient. Mobility is desired, but in many cases sensors have not yet become wireless. This creates the need for the implementation of new biomedical personal wireless networks with a common architecture and the capacity to handle multiple sensors, monitoring different body signals, with different requirements. The type and number of sensors must be configured according to monitoring needs related to different diseases, treatment, and the patient treatment life cycle12. WMSNs systems have several advantages over traditional wired

students innew ways. For example, Guzdial proposed an introductory media-centric programming coursefor non-majors, in which students manipulated sound, images and other media [14]. Othershave argued for game-based projects, and some have integrated gaming throughout theircomputing curriculum [15, 16]. Alternatively, some educators have introduced hardware into theclassroom. For example, Mahmoud uses mobile devices extensively through many computingcourses, enabling students to work with their own, personal devices [17]. Others have attemptedusing robotics in their curriculum, but have experienced varying results in student success [18].Overall, it is apparent that many educators are concerned with the current state of computingeducation, and are

Adata warehouse is a type of database that focuses on the aggregation and integration of data frommultiple sources, usually for analysis and reporting purposes.Many fields in Big Data focus on the extraction of information. For example, BusinessIntelligence (BI) systems focus on providing historical, current, and predictive views for thebusiness making use of it. Often, BI and related systems manage their data in the form of datacubes, which are multi-dimensional views of data managed and modeled in a way for rapid queryand analysis. Online analytical processing, or OLAP, is an important part of BI systems thatfocuses on creating views and queries from data cubes for

for future testing and further development ofOpenDSA.2. Tutorial ModulesTutorial modules tested in this study represent a tight integration of content, interactive exercis-es, and assessment. This presents an innovative way to improve the state of the art in AV andteaching of DSA, as no project previously has tried to integrate AVs with text and assessment tothis degree. A module roughly corresponds to a section (a couple of pages) in a traditional text-book. A typical semester course might include over 100 modules. The vision for the completedelectronic textbook is for modules and their prerequisite structure to define a directed graph thatmakes up a Knowledge Map. It will characterize a viable self-contained electronic textbook. In
