ADAaccommodation for students is extra time on tests this becomes null if there is no time limit forall students.One additional consideration of take-home tests is the increased time commitment required. Dueto the differences in course structuring for this type of test instructors would be forced toreevaluate their course plan to make it work. Instructor 1 emphasized that the primary reasonpreventing wider adoption (for their own classes) is a huge time commitment to restructuring theclass to accommodate for the new testing type. Due to the large amount of work in switching acourse over to this style Instructors are hesitant to put in that time commitment when standardtesting procedures are not creating perceived problems.Student RoleOut of the three
par;cipants highly valued thehands-on por;ons.Recommendations for Future Workshops We plan to follow up on the ini;al workshop with a second. Our aim is to narrow our focus inthe upcoming year and design the presenta;on to include more hands-on ac;vi;es. As thepar;cipants observed, another beneficial aspect of the presenta;on was allowing everyone towork at their own pace with the provided worksheets. Addi;onally, the presenters circulatedamong the class, offering help where needed. Conclusion The ASEE 2023 conference showcased a fruisul collabora;on between academic ins;tu;onsand MathWorks. This partnership led to a successful workshop execu;on highligh;ng theintegra;on of advanced MATLAB features with the Arduino microprocessor to
concert with the development of the PR1 robot line. Today, ROS canbe found in virtually every academic robotics research lab, and industry leaders like BostonDynamics and iRobot use ROS to prototype and test their products [7]. Thus, students wholearn ROS gain an important and ubiquitous skill that sets them up for success in academiaand industry.2.2 Function of ROS in Undergraduate CoursesROS has been used in undergraduate robotics courses as a tool to learn about, simulate, andactuate robotic mechanisms[10, 11]. On top of ROS, there are many packages that can beused to visualize physical environments, like Gazebo, and develop, simulate and execute mo-tion plans, like MoveIt, for examples. Examples of implementation include course projects

The author of this paper, with several years of industrial experience, verifies that this ABEToutcome conforms with what the industry requires. The industry forms teams for effectivecollaboration among their members to provide useful products and services. As a result, capstoneprojects at engineering schools need to be designed to create an environment for students toobtain this skill set.Significance of collaboration with industry in the capstone experienceCollaboration with industry has become more important in the last few years. First, the industryis motivated to work with the university to access new technology findings and enhance theirinnovation [17
from a larger research study at the sameFinnish University, which investigates students’ conceptualizations of and experiences ininterdisciplinary education. Specifically, the dataset consists of seven semi-structured interviewsconducted with graduate students during their first year. These interviews form part of alongitudinal study, with follow-up interviews planned to track changes in students’conceptualizations, experiences, and learning gains over time.The semi-structured nature of the interviews was designed to provide ample opportunity forstudents to share their prior experiences, expectations of their interdisciplinary studies, and theircurrent experiences in the program. The questions during the interviews were intentionally broadand
their project rankings in hindsight to determine how the experience changed their expectations.• Is there a relationship between project source and perceived project difficulty?• Do the students’ post-graduation plans impact their choice of sponsor source?The authors look forward to collaborating with courses who also use multiple types of projectsources to compare results and determine potential improvements for ensuring students haveoptimized learning experiences.References1.

” regards interdisciplinary knowledge as one of the core education elementswhen cultivating STEM graduates. Thus, interdisciplinarity has become an increasinglyimportant feature of engineering education over recent decades, and work has begun toextend these efforts from undergraduate to graduate education [5]. Despite multiple interdisciplinary teaching modes being designed to meet this need,critics view interdisciplinary teaching innovation at this stage as lacking novelty, scholarlydepth, methodological rigor, and integrated planning [6]. It has been recommended that thevalue of interdisciplinarity cannot be explained without attention to the subjects valuing itand the inner changes they undergo [7]. However, previous studies of

In terms of future work, there are several additions planned such as utilizing additionalsensors such as LiDARs for obstacle detection and switching to local hotspot and a local server-based system for enhanced connectivity and restricted-free access.6.

They also presented at the Provost Teaching and Learning Symposium as shown in Figure 2. • Attending two advanced workshops with Faculty at the home institution • Peer Mentoring: Students will mentor their ENES 396 peers and provide evaluation on their teaching practices and facilitation throughout the semester. This includes them attending one lecture/discussion of their peers. • Team lead and facilitate one ENES 396 discussion/lecture. Students will plan and facilitate a topic in ENES 396 or in their own classrooms that will be approved by the instructor.After completing ENES 397 and a research project, students earn undergraduate CIRTLassociate certification

writing assignments and the CEFR level of the lecture material itself, but it was very small –Answer to RQ3.The results demonstrated in item 1 and 2 above offer several benefits. Firstly, understandingstudents’ English proficiency allows educators to tailor their instruction to meet the diverseneeds of the class. It may also lead to an effective lesson planning. Additionally, it allows forthoughtful grouping in discussion activities. As indicated in item 3, students in the ‘lower’group displayed a greater increase in CEFR-J levels than students in ‘top group.’ This may bebecause grades for the earliest assignments were made known to students halfway throughthe course. It seems plausible that awareness of their poor performance led the ‘lower
