the instructional modules. The lab modules doprovide step-by-step instructions to have students complete laboratory work. In addition there arequestions to be answered and worksheets to be used for grading the laboratory work within thelaboratory modules. There are also faculty developed videos that show how the trainer is toperform or control other mechanism that support each lab module. These have been found to aidstudent understanding of laboratory outcomes. Other laboratory modules are planned to alignwith the 16 content modules. # Module Titles # Module Titles 1 Microcontroller Technology 9 Stepper Motors Controls 2 Numbers and Programming Languages 10 DC

What originally had been identified as a Six Sigma processimprovement project, with the hope of building on an existing plan, was reinvented as a Designfor Six Sigma project to better serve the department’s needs.Experimental MethodThe most common pathway proposed for Lean Six Sigma process improvement is often referredto as the DMAIC process represented by a cycle of define, measure, analyze, improve andcontrol. Nevertheless, this being the most common course for improvement did not make it themost appropriate course to accomplish the department’s goals. Design for Six Sigma, as if therewas no existing process, rather than DMAIC process improvement is more applicable when abusiness chooses to replace one or more core processes and/or

Dr. Padgett feels strongly about giving back to the community and trying to make a difference in the lives of others. He is paying it back and paying it forward. Dr. Padgett restores antique automobiles and loves to tinker on things in his spare time. Dr. Padgett is also a long distance motorcycle rider. He commutes approximately 140 miles per day to work on his bike. He has traveled to as far as Ohio, Louisiana, Florida and Texas and it doesn’t bother him to travel 1600 – 1800 miles over three day period. He is currently planning a trip on his bike to Niagara Falls

Third, the article promotes theneed for universities to work toward establishing and nurturing graduate ET programs as a meansto strengthen ET’s footing in academics and scholarship. A generic M.S.E.T. degree plan isoffered as a starting guide. And finally, a cost-effective national marketing strategy is outlined tosignificantly increase ET awareness in the community.On Rebranding ET: Is there really a problem

These K-12 outreach activities are supported through a project titled - STARS (Students& Technology in Academia, Research & Service) Alliance. The primary objective of the STARS projectis the broadening of participation in computing through best practices and community building.Provisions will be made for visits to these and other K-12 schools to advertise the program and makepresentations on Cyber Security. We plan to make few of the Cyber Security courses and modules onlineto K-12 schools teachers, local two year and four year college teachers and others interested in CyberSecurity education and awareness

.The renewable energy engineering track curriculum structure is described below. Alterations tothe fundamental core requirements in electronics engineering technology were made to allow forsome formal coverage of biology, chemistry, environmental science, and conservation principles,in addition to the traditional physics, electronics, and mathematics prerequisite knowledgecoursework. This then allowed for advanced studies in the areas of environmental economics,sustainability, environmental sociology, and power transmission, generation of energy, powerelectronics and renewable energy management.

Thestudents took a public path of question development through the use of hand-written postersin the meeting space. Peers, as well as the technical mentors, reviewed the posters throughoutthe first week and made suggestions via post-it notes to refine the students’ research question andtheir research plans. By the end of the first week, the students had become the PI of their ownresearch program. The TTU faculty mentors, graduate students, R&D engineers, and industrymentors then became facilitators to the student PIs. Rigorous weekly

The components are oriented out of plan with each other, not because ofstructural deformation, but because the hot and cold lines in the condenser unit were not parallelto each other and we wanted to avoid putting a mechanical load on the thermoelectric unit. Aflexible component was later added to the system to prevent mechanical loading of thethermoelectric module due to either thermal stress/strain or vibration. Here are the steps arefollowed:  Students studied the overall HVAC unit to determine potential sources of waste energy and devised methods for energy harvesting  Predesign measurements were made to

With more sturdy (and expensive) water bottles, thisproblem was alleviated. Implementation cost is primarily the water bottles: this could benegligible if the instructor plans ahead and saves bottles from a single manufacturer. Otherwise, Page 24.1107.8cost should be on the order of five dollars, depending on class size.

Based on our conflicting results, and our small femalesample size (n=12), we conclude there was not enough data collected to appropriately drawmeaningful conclusions for this engineering and technology course. Collecting larger samplesmay provide different results than the analysis of this pilot study found.
