Using aluminumcans proved to be very useful to prevent vehicles from travelling back after hitting the terminalpost. Kinetic energy was absorbed into the can instead of being used to bounce back. Figure 4. A Bus at the Terminal PointTables 3 and 4 show how downloaded acceleration data in Figure 5 and Table 1 is converted intovelocity (Figure 6) and distance (Figure 7) traveled using numerical integration.

is not high enough, therewould be an overlap between two neighbors, and this is the cause of the aliasing effect. Fig. 1. Alising phenomenon in frequency domain.In practical situations, the input signal is always band limited, so we can assume that the upperlimit of the frequency is fMAX. The Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem [2] indicates that thesampling frequency should be at least twice of fMAX, i.e. f S  2  f MAX , which can be understoodeasily from Fig. 1. On the other hand, if the sampling frequency is fixed, the bandwidth of theinput signal is required to be no greater than fs/2, which is called the Nyquist frequency and it isan attribute of the electronic device.Students can understand the Nyquist-Shannon

, the followingquestions were asked of all interviewees prior to conducting the interview: ● What is your name? (to ensure the correct person was interviewed) ● Are you over the age of 18? (this study was not IRB approved for minors as participants) ● Were you an LA in the Spring of 2020? ● What course(s) were you an LA for in Spring of 2020?These questions were for the purposes of pre-screening for eligibility and were not recorded as apart of the data collection process. As established in our approved Institutional Review Boardprotocol, we reviewed approved consent documents with each participant and gained verbalconsent for engaging in the interview or recording the audio.Course Contexts. The interviewees in this study supported

into two parts: the theoretical and functional. Ideas behindthe advanced manufacturing process under discussion were introduced in the first part of themodule(s) as well as defining the relationship between engineering topics covered in thecurriculum; whereas the active online experimentations were introduced in the second part ofeach module(s) focusing on preliminary engineering concepts and techniques such design anddesign rationale, durability, and other topics needed to build the UAVs. The students wereadvised to use SoildWorks or TinkerCad to make slight adjustments to the general design of theirprojects. The students could also use MATLAB to collect, store and analyze their data dependingon the level of programing experience each student

what you know? Figure 2. Short writing example involving exploration of topics in Physics 230.During the third week of class, students were given a short in-class writing activity in the form ofa classroom assessment technique (CAT) pioneered by Angelo and Cross [22]. Often referred toas a “minute paper” the students were asked two questions which are illustrated in Figure 3. 1. What was the most useful or meaningful thing you learned during our session together today? 2. What question(s) remain uppermost in your mind as we ended the session? Figure 3. Short writing example using a classroom assessment technique (CAT) in Physics 230.The CAT was given anonymously during class and students were given a small

, providing students a visual on how energy is conserved and can beconverted. Yet through further optimization such as sturdier materials and stronger magnets, aswell as placing it in a loud environment that the product was intended for, the product could bebrought to a point of commercial functionality. We theorized that with these improvements, wecould create a product that builds upon the success of our project and can be implanted in anindustrial setting.References1. Jensen, S.
