,introducing them to foundational topics in calculus, physics, and programming. Within thephysics portion of the program, students explored quantum mechanics and worked specifically onunderstanding the BB84 quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol. This manuscript focuses onour experience teaching the BB84 QKD protocol, describing what worked well, the challenges wefaced, and the lessons we learned. We share successes, obstacles, and strategies for futureiterations to improve educational outcomes related to this critical aspect of quantumscience.IntroductionThe demand for scientists and engineers equipped with quantum knowledge is rising as QISEbecomes increasingly critical to advancing technology and securing information systems [1].Experts, including

0.024 W·m−1·K−1 [1], andthus prevents an efficient heat transfer from the processor to the heat sink. Imperfect surfacecontact between the processor and the heat sink is a major limiting factor for creating newelectronics. Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs) are thermally conductive materials used toimprove surface contact with a thermally conductive material, displacing the air and increasinginterfacial heat transfer between the heat sink and processor and this prevents overheating of thesystem.The objective was to produce repeatable and reliable results using a setup, which costssignificantly less than commercial testers. This would make TIM testing more accessible to highschool laboratories and developing nations. The goal of this project was

, particularlyin compact systems where natural convection alone is insufficient to manage the heat generatedby high-performance components. [1] To mitigate the risk of exceeding the maximum operatingtemperature of sensitive electronics, heat sinks are widely employed to enhance heat transfer.Positioned on top of central processing units (CPUs) or other heat-intensive components, heatsinks facilitate the conduction of thermal energy away from the device, followed by dissipationthrough natural or forced convection [2]. Understanding the role of heat sinks in improvingoverall thermal management is essential for designing reliable electronic systems.Problem DefinitionA new laboratory module centered on heat sink performance was proposed after recognizing

intersects assessment and evaluation, motivation, and equity. His research goal is to promote engineering as a way to advance social justice causes. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2025Exploring Engineering Students’ Perspectives of Instructors’ Test Beliefs and Behaviors: A Secondary Data Analysis by Current Undergraduate Engineering StudentsIntroductionInstructors’ or teachers’ belief research is one of the key components in efforts to improveteaching and learning in engineering education research. Documented works have widely shownthat beliefs shaped instructors’ behaviors and practices in the classroom [1], [2], though nesting,conflicts, and tension between beliefs and

as Blackboard or Moodle. This allows videos to be embedded into a hybrid or onlineclass. Panopto offers instructors tools to create, edit, and post videos for on-demand learning, sostudents can access videos from anywhere and take charge of their learning.Panopto is excellent for recording lectures for hybrid, asynchronous, and flipped classroomteaching formats [1]. It offers many features to create a more immersive experience, similar totraditional learning. Split Screen viewing, bookmarks, searchable transcripts, note-takingcapabilities, as well as public forums, are some of the most popular features. These add value tothe virtual classroom experience by increasing organization and engagement.The use of Panopto at the college level has

promoting sustained economic growth, all of which address emerging societal needs of the21st century. However, concerns have been raised about the current education system's ability toproduce engineers equipped to meet the rapidly growing demands of a global, dynamicworkplace and the evolving nature of engineering work [1]. While educational technologies(EdTech) are powerful tools for transforming learning and improving educational outcomes, theplentitude of EdTech poses challenges for effective adoption in engineering classroom settings.In addition, rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing(NLP) are accelerating the development of new EdTech tools, increasing the burden on educatorsfor evaluating and

, Hypervisor, Apache Storm, Kubernetes.IntroductionEngineering education has a great potential to develop and reshape the next generation ofinnovators and problem-solvers to meet the pace of unprecedented advancements in every aspectof life. Researchers from different domains such as information technology, agriculture, andenvironmental science continuously generate new knowledge of novelty [1], raising concernsabout the significant practical influence. The industry is moving at a greater pace fortechnological advancements and lack of training and other resources make our education systemunable to keep up with this pace leaving a huge gap in practical and theoretical knowledge.

educationexperience, bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and practical application. Thesecourses often employ various teaching methods, including demonstration-based, collaborative,inquiry-based, and experiential learning, to engage students in hands-on experiences that connectclassroom theory with real-world engineering problems [1-9]. Currently, the University ofGeorgia Biomedical Engineering Lab follows a demonstration-based approach, where studentsperform isolated experiments designed to illustrate specific theoretical principles. We intuit thatthis method is effective for helping students learn to apply individual course concepts incontrolled settings, but it may limit students’ ability to transfer knowledge between experimentsand apply

ofdesign processes, but often require additional program resources.1. IntroductionIn the 21st century, product lifecycle management (PLM) initiatives swept the engineering industry,with more companies transitioning to digital collaborative design methods over existingengineering design strategies, where a company would keep an on-site design file storage systemthat includes hand drawings and requirement documents. With enterprises realizing the advantagesof PLM systems and how they impact their organizational structure and capabilities, engineeringdesign processes have changed dramatically, from a traditionally closed environment toincorporating multiple departments into a collaborative design space. The shift in mindset towardsa collaborative
