Algorithms CNNs were used as early as the 1990’s to automatically detect handwriting on checks[12]. CNNs are an iteration of artificial neural networks also called “backpropagation neuralnetworks” [13]. CNNs use “convolutional layers” that apply matrices (filters) of different valuescalled “weights” onto an image using a convolution operation. It is speculated that earlier layersin the neural network can identify low-level features such as edge gradients. With every newlayer

much less of its energy into mechanical motion than electricity; the average energy expended for gasoline is 0.805 MJ, while the average energy expended for electricity is 0.279 MJ [4].Test 3 - Performance Our third test was concerning performance. We would've accelerated the go-kart from 0-20 mph (and determined speed based on the rpm of the axle, which would be measured by the Arduino RedBoard) using solely the gas engine, and then done the same for solely the electric motor, recording the time needed for each. The table below shows the standard acceleration of gas and electric cars obtained from research [5] [6]. Gas Acceleration Gas Acceleration Electric Acceleration Electric Acceleration Time (s

might live around these systems and facilities and be impacted bytheir presence for decades. While these logics may have served the field for decades, we are ofthe view that moving forward, particularly in the nuclear (and other energy) field(s), these logicsare going to become increasingly impractical. This is because of the growing interest in smallerscale (eventually perhaps even personalized) energy systems sited in much greater proximity topeople and communities than have the systems of the past. As a result, there is a growing interestfrom communities that might host these systems to shape key decisions about how these systemsand facilities are designed. Despite this shift, students are given little to no formal training onhow to frame

spentseveral weeks discussing the meaning of “equitable and sustainable STEM education.” Thegroup found that developing empathy for other communities is an important and recurring themeamong curricula that are designed with equity in mind [4-6], and hands-on activities arewidespread [6-8]. In addition, STEM literacy and the integration of multiple STEM areas werecommon themes [9-13]. Among all of the articles reviewed, the team found Jackson et al.’s“Equity-Oriented Conceptual Framework for K-12 STEM Literacy” [4] to be especially relevantand helpful in guiding the development of the lesson activities. Overarching themes thatappeared repeatedly in the team’s literature review and guided the subsequent work on theproject include the following

their children in STEM activities and nuclear science programs. These activities haveresulted in deeper, sustained student engagement and understanding of mitigating factors that ourstudents face and need to be addressed to enhance a nuclear workforce pipeline at an HBCU.IntroductionIn the USA, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) continue to award a largeshare of bachelor's degrees to African American students in Science, Technology, Engineering,Arts and Mathematics (STEAM). HBCUs are also the baccalaureate origins of one-quarter toone-third of black science and engineering (S&E) doctorate recipients [1]. However, as shownby the National Science Foundation data [2] for college aged population (18-24 years), blackstudents

Figure-4: Water Velocity Readings in USGS [5]6. Results and Discussions: Once all the components are confirmed, it is decided to chose averaging out the 4 days data.Table-2 contains velocity of water flow data that was used in this study. These pieces were thenput into the power equation to get the total wattage that can be produced. Then multiplied theamount by 24 to find the watt-hours for one day and then multiplied that amount by 365 to seehow much power could be produced in a year. This calculation was repeated for the maximumvelocity to find the absolute maximum amount of power that could potentially be obtained if thatvelocity continued for a year.
