associated controls teaching platform. That platform includesa suite of proprietary hardware, and it works in concert with LabVIEW™ software from NationalInstruments. By 2018, several of the QUBEs had ceased to function, out of an original set of tenunits. That year, internal ME department research was conducted to investigate the cost of QUBEreplacements. At that time the version of the QUBE owned by KU had been discontinued.According to Quanser, there were two QUBEs left (in their possession) from that outdatedhardware generation. The ME department did not purchase those units, which ended the use ofthe QUBEs in MECH-431, as there would have been too many students in each laboratory groupassigned to each remaining (functioning) QUBE.Regarding the
was as good(87.8%), if not better, than other students (77.6%). However, under-represented minorities(65.4%) and first-generation students (64.7%) did not fare as well. A number of studies havedemonstrated that first generation students, in particular, face some unique challenges [2]–[5].These students can lack the cultural capital their continuing peers have including the skills andknowledge to build social networks with their academic peers and the ability to tap institutionresources.These observations have encouraged us to consider implementing changes to our freshman levelcourses that can support the development of social networking skills and encourage theidentification and use of resources such as faculty and graduate teaching assistant
